Perpetual Growers Thread

I wanna join in but I've just expanded and gone from perpetual in each NFT to vegging up each room.

I found a phenotype of blue rhino which is more sativa and doesn't need veg so if I stick to that I can do it. 20 cm clones switched to 12:12 end up 70-90 cms tall.

Ind Dom plants seem to need more veg and i prefer fast sats anyway.

I'm also running zombie kush side by side with a soil grow. I have melon gum mums growing and at 7 weeks I'm nearly ready to take clones. I like them to develop a few sets of leaves before copying.

How do you all keep track of what's what... I have real trouble remembering after 1st round of cloning ...I run multi strain..and probably take 2 of each... So if some die in cloner and get replaced later with whatever's up...I tend to get a bit bamboozled trying to distinguish bu looking at leaf... Any thoughts

Label them??? With some white paper stakes.

been in perpetual for a few years now, now using root riots for cloning and flood tables with 5 inch net cups and growstone as substrate. only wrinkle I'm still battling is uniformity in the individual plants. This is SOG and some clones always end up near twice the size of others. This drives me crazy, Been giving them 1-2 weeks veg trying to tinker for the perfect amount. I may just stick with 2 weeks and top the ones that are way ahead of the others.

Scroga, every single plant is labeled from the time they are cut from the mothers. I've screwed up labeling a couple times where I knew two groups of cuts were labeled same. i removed every label and finished them off as nameless black sheep to be sure the mistake didn't multiply by taking future cuts. Only thing worse than losing track of clone identities is to clone those plants later lol

Good Evening All,

I can say I am in full swing now. I have one round at 4 weeks in, another at 1 week in and the next couple of rounds on idle. I am liking the denseness I am getting running the 400w MH's with the 600w HPS lights. I took clones of the Purple Diesel, Grape Gum and Sensi Star and they are all doing well.

Here is a couple of shots of the progress. I have a couple of the Tangerine Dream tops that stretched a good bit, but they look like they are going to fill out decently before its over.( fingers crossed )

Looking great! So the big ones are the TD then? I hope my Tangerine something (kush, I think)xgirl scout cookies turns out so frosty at 4 weeks! I threw out a male that was smelling really citrusy, but the female doesn't smell much besides plant yet. I bet yours smell great :weed:

Yeah my pre flip mothers get the white stakes( which inevitably fall out somewhere along the line) it's at the cloner where I come unstuck.. I'm thinking a variety of different coloured pucks or some kind of writable tape around stem... Obviously I'm not the OCD type ... I want an easy visual system rather than having to go back to a notebook

I have a while to go before I'm at the stage you're at my friend! I have to say that I didn't imagine getting setup for a perpetual would be this much trouble. I'm still rearranging my space and trying different designs to maximize my little area. Looking good man.:leaf:

Al
These are the roots on my clones and they are only 10 days old! They're getting nutes now. The other is my mom which I haven't switched yet, I'm thinking I'll give her a little more time and see what she does.
