Coco grow - Super Silver Haze, Blue Cheese and Trainwreck

[SnowWhite]

I'll be taking cuts tomorrow. I've been out to get supplies today. I've decided to root them straight into coco in small seedling/cutting pots. I've never tried cloning in coco before, but I've tried just about everything else and I see no reason why coco won't be just as effective.

I've already prepared my cutting tray as I only have a small window of time in the morning before my lights go out. So tomorrow I will do my usual checks/watering/feeding etc, then take cuts, dipping the cutting in my rooting gel, then straight into my coco....simple!

Here's my cutting tray ready to go. I have a humidity dome to go on top.

I've watered the pots in with a light A+B+Rhizo feed and will leave them to stand over night. The damp vermiculite in the bottom of the tray just helps keep things nice and humid under the dome, without having to spray them every day. They should be just fine while I'm away with work. I just hope rooting in coco does not give me any unexpected surprises....i.e. dead clones!!!!!

Looks like your all set for the cuttings mate.
Good idea with the damp vermiculite at the bottom to raise RH.
I'm gonna try straight coco too this time for cloning, I reckon it should work fine

 

[SnowWhite]

yeah mamm, I can recommend the vermiculite, I've used it like this before, but with a root riot cube tray sitting on vermiculite and it worked a treat, so I'm going for the same thing this time.

Can I just say....I love growing weed! I thought I was out. But I just been searching through my desk and I found an old jar with about Q in it! Oh happy days!! I think I was saving it for my hash stash ages ago and totally forgot about it. V happy to find it now. Such good timing!!

Wake n bake time, then I'm off to my shed to take my cuts!

 

[Mammath]

Enjoy dude... good find.

.. I never run out lol.
I actually make sure I don't even come close

Can't wait to see your grow take shape

I try to never run out....unfortunately it doesn't always work like that. My grows can get a bit disorganised or problematic (mites/hermies etc) and behind schedule screwing up my perpertual cycle. and I'm a complete weed fiend! The more I have, the more I smoke. It's not very cool actually. I should smoke less, enjoy it more! I struggle with self control when it comes to lovely stinky/sticky buds of herb! I don't even sell any of what I grow, it's all for myself and to share with good friends.



I've been real busy in my shed the last couple of hours.....pics update coming v soon.....

 

[SnowWhite]

This morning I have

-taken clones
-trimmed lower growth/branches
-Raised/moved pots about, bit of training
-Fed with their first dose of PK (I'm at 1.7 EC now)
-Sprayed underside of leaves with Neem, probably for the final time unless I get bugs. Still no bugs so far though. My preventitive measures seem to be doing the trick

So here's some pics for ya....

Trimmings.....

After trimming....

Clone tray.....I just leave them on a window ledge while it's light out, but then I put them in my tent after dark, with just a single 125 W blue enviro way above them. When the days are longer, I would just leave them on the window sill 24x7 till rooted. They don't need much light and it saves on a bit electric.

I turned off my HPS to spray them just before lights out, here's some pics without the HPS running before I sprayed, just my enviro side lights running.......

I'm v pleased with everything that I got done this morning. Especially finding some smoke! Result!! But everything is on schedule and going to plan so far!

Next update will not be tilll the end of next week when I get back from my travels. Hopefully we'll be starting to see some early leaf frosting by then!

Thanks don mate. I'd prefer to take clones a bit earlier, but leaving it a little bit longer works out best for me timings wise. Other wise the clones will be too big before my flowering room is clear. I've taken them before at this time and they don't seem to care, they root, grow a bit werid and the early bud growth dies off, then they just go full on veg again. So it should all work out ok.

Cheers man, thanks for taking the time to read my thread. Much appreciated dude. Welcome on board! You're just in time, as things are starting to get very exciting!

Not a holiday I'm afraid, I'd rather be at home with my plants, it's a business trip!

Nice trim dude.

Good work.

Cheers buddy, that's what I'm aiming at!!

Shit guys I'm knackered now, I need to have a bong! I've been so busy, cleaned the chickens out and cut the grass as well now this morning....it keeps the mrs happy when I disappear off into my shed for a an hour or two if I get lots of other jobs done too. Time to chill now!!

cheers nightmare...pull up a chair and have a toke on this mate!

Good luck with your coco grow, I think you're really going to like it man. You gonna do a journal? I converted from soil, but I see a lot of people converting from hydro to coco as well. Cocoponics!! I will never look back!

How many chicken you got dude?
I love the little feathery beasts.
I have 5 Rhode Island Reds and get an average of 25 - 30 eggs a week from the buggers.
They eat all our food scraps and give us back nice free range googs.
Home grown eggs shit all over the ones you get from the supermarket.

Awesome man. I love them too. Great pets. So entertaining to watch and I love the eggs. Like you say, shit all over shop bought ones. We have 4 bantam wyandotes. 3 partridge and 1 silver laced. They are just gorgeous!

we only have a small garden. Don't need much space for chickens, espeically not bantams. They have a small house with a run, but we mostly just let them run free in the garden. They are half size, pretty much, so are their eggs, but the yolks are normal size. They make the most amazing rich yellow cakes and yorkshire puddings! mmmmmm!

double jealous seriously i have 4 flagstones and spome stairs not even a foot square of grass i miss me garden so much. im movin after xmas n a garden is in the must have list... i want a greenhouse big time grapes and tommies. if i get space some chickens would be awesome.

are they much bother to look after?
