No sir. However, the plant in the 3x3 tent in the clones outta control thread just got the first hint of sweet, almost blueberry smell to it on Saturday. The last one I grew, it's mom, would alternate through smells. Blueberries, sweet blueberry like almost blueberry candies, and plain kinda skunky weed. Just depended on the day.

Day 19
Just got back in town. Res is still clear, ppm is still spot on, ph drifted from 5.75 on Sunday morning to 5.90 Thursday evening. I am super happy with that result. My son checked reservoir and plants at least once per day to make sure stuff wasn't going haywire. The plants are happy and stretched up quite a bit. So much so, that they doubled in size. I believe I remember seeing that clones like to grow fast when they take off. Should I be turning the light up to keep the stretching to a minimum? Should I be topping these again? I will be keeping all 4 of these and the 2 Cinderella Purples in the 4x4 for the duration of the grow.

Day 20
These ladies got leggy.
1. Should I be turning the light up quite a bit at this point? Currently running at 300w and the light is fastened at the top of the tent. Lowering it isn't going to happen.
2. Should I top these again in order to prep for a net over them? If so, whereabouts? Clones have been confusing me since they don't grow nice and symmetrical like when growing from seed.

Have you thought about super cropping them a bit instead of topping? I hate topping some plants when they have alternating nodes.

I'm not against it. I'm just wondering if I cut em down a bit and turn the light up if that will help them squat a bit more for when the net comes in on top of em. I did go ahead and turn the light up to 400w.

Day 23
Filled reservoir with 8 gallons of solution. There was about 1.5-2 gallons solution left in bottom of reservoir. Dropped the ppm slightly due to minor yellow tips on leaves. Plants are recovering from the supercropping.
8 gallons RO water
12mL CalMag
24g MaxiGrow
1.48mL bleach
2mL pH up
Ppm ~695
pH 5.69

Day 28
The ladies were wanting some new shoes, so they got an upgrade to 1 gallon pots. Also trimmed up their undercarriages a bit while they were getting new pots. They all got a helping of Dynomyco. Topped em all off with some Canna Coco from a brick. Used half of one brick and added liters of water to it, let it soak for a bit and then drained it off. Ph tested at about 5.7-5.8. I also turned the lights from 18/6 to 12/12. All 4 plants had decent roots that looked healthy. Took most of the lst brackets and tape off from supercropping. Had to make a splint on one branch on Fresh #2. Taped a couple others for minor support. The refrigerator clones are doing just fine and at this point there are no huge differences that I can really see.
Fresh res tonight.

Day 17
These ladies are living up to their reputation and are still stretching!!! Tucked a handful of tops back down into the net this morning. They are drinking a lot as well. The reservoir is under 5 gallons already. I think I am going to add another 5 gallons of grow nutes this evening and then next res topoff, I will mix up the bloom nutes. Any issues with that at this point in the cycle?
