always trying something new and different!! I just have to learn to only make 1 change at a time, kinda like IT!haha i think i might try this out pretty soonJust think what they would look like right now had their been an air stone in there! That's way cool GB! I bet this is how somebody first discovered that plants can be "trained" to grow in only water!Just like the apple falling on Newton's head! Sir Isaac Gumball!

no problem micro. you can make a net cup out of any plastic cup. i have even seen them made out of yogurt cups, and its recycling. so its being green making green
to make the holes i have read a lot of people use a soldering iron. if you dont have one, a lit cigerrate would work to make some good holes without tearing up the plastic.

Next is the LS, this pheno is much better than the first I grew, or I am doing better, 1 or both
I am hoping to see some more stretch and better bud formation on the lower nodes, but I dont think I will get it. I just want to try some nicely finished lemon skunk, I dont care about the yield shes is a strong sativa though so she may surprise

Here are all the flowering girls, and them in the cab. They are pretty green, but I would like to see the SS greener. I think the LS has nice colors I have them at 1 tsp per gallon Dyna-gro foliage pro and 3/4 tsp per gallon pro-tekt, maybe some fish emulsions, but I dont know how the dangly roots will take it 
I think the 12/12 from seed is going slowly, but I think there is a bit too much vermiculite and it is too moist. I will let the pot dry out well and try to be easy on the watering. the roots have hit the bottom though

And finally here are the moms and the clones. they still fit in the PC case, kinda i need these damn clones to show some new growth for me, something so I can trim some more. I will have to do more than cut for clones though when I cut. I want the tall tops from the RUNT for the next batch of clones, and spring will be here soon, almost time for some guerilla growing 
i scout for my spots during the summer, and I try to find spots where the sun doesnt hit until around 11 or 12. this way the plant can thrive off of morning dew before the sun peaks and bakes it off the leaves. I also look for spots that are not maintained, i.e no lawn mowing, routinely no seeing tire tracks, etc. the royal kush is BEAUTIFUL to me

nice update! your ladies look good overall and the mothers seem o be happy. Beautiful sativa leaves there, and nice good color.
Your clones seem to be having some trouble, what do you think is the major stress on them?
I was also wondering when is the best time to get clones going for outdoor planting, 2 weeks? 4 weeks? before planting. It has been my experience that my closeness don't become really healthy and stable enough for outdoor hiking and planting for at least 2 weeks. Finally how do you transport your outdoor seedlings? to keep them safe.

Thanks Gamber, that would be funBeautiful shit BG!I've had visions of growing tons of clones and spreading them throughout the county. Kind of like Johnny Appleseed.
low night time temps. if I kept the roots warmer I think they would do better. that and I am trying to find the sweet spot with how much to spray the lids and how long to leave them off. some of them were in peat pots, one seemed ok and the other was crappy, but I am a sucker for a needy pot plant
some do turn yellow right as they grow roots, unless your a pro which I am not. I have seen a couple of folks keep the clones green the whole time.

hope u don't mind me posten pics and i realize my exact set is unpractical in a PC box.
i have seen great luck with clones using rockwool cubes and rockwool starter solution. i got a 30 dollar cloner from amazon.com and it comes with a tall dome and a root warming pad to sit on, these clones are 10 days old just took the pics for ya and they are small i took them that way for a buddy of mine who's growing in a PC box. now i keep that done super wet over 90% humidity huge drops on the roof of the container and prolly 7 mistings a day with spray bottle, they looked like they were gonna croak a few days into it and now they are standing tall and firmly rooted in the cube. they sit in the glow of my aerogaren cfls and under a 90watt UFO led.
i suspect its all about the root warmth, cause i dont seem to hurt them with massive humidity

the 12/12 from seed? well i am not sure of genetics is was a mix bag, but I think it is mainly indica, so 3-4 weeks of veg under 12/12 from seed, then 8-10 weeks depending on the pheno. more sativa may take a bit longer, more indica may take a bit shorter. but I have been reading a lot lately stating that cloudy may be more along the line of ripe than amber!
very soon
thanks Daniels I dont mind as long as it flows with the conversation
your clones look good. I tried to get my hands on a waterbed heater, but my mom got rid of all hers. It would be hard to warm the roots though in the tiny PC. plus I would need another timer. I am on a little bit of a budget though so I try to keep purchases to a minimum for when i really NEED something Thanks CD, it is a lot. But I just ordered a water pump,, some irrigation tubing, and a raindrip adjustable manifold 0-20 gph. I am hoping that will help a bunch with management

well i don't think u need a timer if u get the right heater, the pads that come with the clone chambers, only get like 10-20 degrees warmer than room temp, just enough to encourage faster rooting, so you can run them 24/7. however i was just thinking, how cold can it possibly get in a PC box your roots must be fairly warm being in such a small area with light bulbs.
