dude i dont think i ever liked rockwool.
-pH fluctuation
-hard to dispose of
-just blah
and clones are like seeds, imho, in reference to one thing done wrong and you almost are SOL and fucked.
i've always had a heavy hand and a lead foot. thas why i really cant grow a thing in soil, i tend to overwater.....
but give me some fucking coco? and some hydro? im on it!
i've gotten hella better at rapidrooters and trays and when to water...but with hydro and/or aero cloning....i dont have to worry about when to water, how to water....its fucking automatic.
just whip up nute soup, ph'd and we have lift off

actually that is the joke......a weed baron is a moron who thinks he can grow super weed with gasoline. it started on al b fuct's threads. i took it and ran with it. most people dont know but it is just a big joke. i kept fucking up aerocloning and i burnt up my op so that made me a weed baron. get it? silly right? some folks take me too serious and think i'm talkin smack about being a pro grower but it couldnt be further from the truth. but we call em weed baron's and they dont get it half the time.

This is what I'm looking for. Can you post a few more pictures and details about this aerocloner of yours? I see you use the 50+ gal rubbermaid, but what do you have inside?I built my own aerocloner 120. It roots 100% in less than 14 days every time.
Here're some pics (the water is brown from hygrozyme and root juice) I need to take the ones with roots out...poor girls.The rest in there were just cut and placed less than three days ago.

I would love to hear about some of the strains that u all are SOGing lately. What are the current stars of ur garden?
I have a few strains going at the moment, in 4x4 ebb&flo. SOG all the way. Right now I would have to say my current star (for yield) is White Russian. Clones well, stays short, big dense colas held by sturdy stems. I think if grown perfectly it could be an OZ+ SOG plant (I am not there yet). It also finishes in less that 7 weeks. The smoke is pretty solid too, but the taste isnt up to the same standard as its floral bouquet.
I have noticed that some strains that do really well in a ScrOG type set up, don't perform that well when they are lollypopped. For example: Nirvana bubblicious. Such a great strain, but its a bit too stretchy and the yields have been disappointing.
Another stain that I have had great SOG experiences with is C plus from Chimera. I have not yet learned how to maximize this strain in hydro though. When properly grown, these gems really swell (especially the last 2 weeks) great smoke too.
Well, I am thinking about picking up a few new strains for the Summer. any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks
BTW, I can post some pic if anyone is interested.

if you are cutting your white russian in less than 49 days as you claim.... you are not letting it gets to its fullest potential, imho
im growing white russian right now... i let her go for at least 65 if not 75 days max

yes serious seeds.
i blv if you let it go longer, you will also get your wish of 1oz plus per plant.
it is a very nice yielder

-Rubbermaid Roughneck 42 gal tub with lid x2 (second lid unnecessary but comes with purchase anyway)
-8' length of 3/4" PVC x1
-Clone Sprayers
-360 sprayers x12
-180 sprayers x16
-pump x1
-1 3/8" hole saw x1
-tap screw for spreader threads
-bur tool to smooth hole edges on lid
It's a Rubbermaid 42gal tub inside another of the same (don't want to risk one cracking under water pressure ever) with the lid flipped upside down to prevent leaking or overspray from the manifold spreaders.
The pvc manifold is standard 3/4" cut into ten 5" lengths for the sides, five 15" lengths for the cross supports, and the sixth cross cut to fit with the pump down below.
The pump's pretty standard and goes up to a manifold with the non-mechanical sprayers (the mechanical ones gum up too easily from my experience). I got 12 of the 360 degree ones for the middle arms of the manifold, and 16 of the 180 degree ones for the sides. You'll need a tap screw drill bit to thread the pvc for the spreaders.
The holes for the neoprene are up to you. I used 1 3/8" hole saw on them for the neoprene discs I got from the store. This takes the longest amount of time to complete because you're constantly emptying the hole saw of plastic pieces from the lid. Drill slowly so the brittle plastic doesn't crack repeatedly. Took me three complete fails on this to get it right. Pain in the ass.
The real key is getting the right tub, because there's now a slew of knock-offs that don't have the right inversion on the lid, and the one I really liked got modded by Rubbermaid with these ridges. Work around them. Look closely at the lid, because it needs to fit down deep into the tub to work. I taped a 20" thick strip of white/black poly to the outside and then flipped it over the sides (especially the handles) as a final safeguard to keep water in.
Good enough?

OK, ill try letting it go a bit longer, thanks
Do you have other strains that you would recommend that I try in my SOG (similar flower period and heaving yielding) cheers
