Yeah it does a good job. Gotta keep an eye on it though. The sprayer gets clogged and they'll all wilt. I have several and you can fix them but shoving a needle through it. No idea what clogs it though..it's just water w/ Clonex solution and I start with a clean bucket of course. After that happened a couple times I check it often. I catch it within a few hours.

As I think about it more, the sprayers don't seem clogged really, but that fixes it. It could be something else, like an air bubble somewhere..and just stopping and taking the sprayer off and restarting is what fixes it. I need to explore that.. :)

Yeah,the more i change my daisy cloner the less it gets clogged i think. I just change it out, and try to clean the spare one out. You are right about catching the wilting fast enough. Only thing that makes me nervous about an aeroponics system.

I jiggle my clogged sprayer, try holding my finger over the hole to create a little pressure. Seems like my sprayers still go around half arse as if it was a lawn sprinkler or something. Not as good as when i got it. Guess i should just order a bag of em since they are pretty cheap

I also let it pump for a few seconds without the sprayer to make sure there is no air. don't do it under your light LOL. It's like a fountain, going up about a foot and a half or two feet. No idea if it helps but can't hurt either :)

Jealous!

Is that C's MOB? I'm still waiting for someone to speak up and say they come down to RI or CT on occassion. I'd love a cut!

good luck with that! I can't speak for anyone else but I wouldn't go out of state lines, nor would I trade or gift a non-maine resident. nothing personal just to much of a gray legal issue for me personally

Dear Friends ... I need some help here ...

I have a friend (she is in the process of obtaining her card soon) that suffers from Fibro, and MS. She is looking for a strain that would allow her to function throughout the day, and then another that would be her couchlock when things got really bad.

Any suggestions as to the strains or satvia and indica levels to look at for those two types of pain.

Much Thankful For The Help :-)

I'd recommend looking at high-CBD strains for the pain. These guys are working on a high-CBD strain that will have consistent CBD levels across phenotypes, unlike things like Cannatonic which are supposed to have high and low-CBD phenos. There's a clone only strain (the name of which is escaping me at the moment) in Cali that allegedly is close to 1:1 THC:CBD ration that the CDB Crew guys are working on.

I understand you Cerberus. I feel the same way for the most part. However understandably some people already do have friends who live in other states and I'm sure have/do trade specimen. I would of course prove to them I am a legal mmj patient (not c/g) if someone ever did voluenteer, however I'd doubt anyone would like you mention. It's fun to ask though, thats what these discussion forums are for.

As for legality, I know your not supposed to transport anything over state boundaries. However I know for Maines cards are valid for seemingly everything in RI. In Maine, my card is only valid for possession of dried medicine - I would not be able to use a dispensary, etc. I've never been to Maine anyways. :)

Didn't want you to get the wrong impression.

No idea where they originated, Buddy. A friend of a friend has been growing it for a long time.

Just wondering if someone can take a look at my (4) girls and let me know (either way) if they appear to be doing well, or if they need some attention. I know that my camera is not the very best (compared to some of the pics that I have seen on here), but we must do with what we have.

I can attest using a 40X Loupe, that all of the plants are very green, there are no bugs, especially mites that I keep reading horrific stories about, and from my knowledge base, appear to be doing very well. With LST, the tallest (Elvira) measures at 9" from soil to top. The others are all in the 8 inch range.

I am giving them a watering with nutes that I call "Moxie Mix". Per 2 litres of ph water (6.4ph), they receive Iguana Juice, Enggy's H-1, and Enggy's F-2. They receive this every 3 days.

The light (150 watt MH) is appx 15 inches from the tops, and the fan level is at 1 (Gentle Breeze). The medium is Rock Organic's Soil Mix.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for any feedback on my first grow. I think I am doing things the correct way, but I am still a newbie and willing to learn. :-)

Will do Cerberus !! I will wrap those four containers tomorrow in 2 mil black garbage bags. That should do the trick until I transplant them on the 18th into their home for the flowering stage. Those containers are smart pots with saucers placed underneath for excess water/ nutes. That will be a total of (From Clone) 45/46 days in the vegetative stage in the closet.

I have been working on the cabinet (Flowering Stage), and should be up and running by Tuesday, December 6th, just in case.

Question: I want to take some clones from these (4) girls. At what point would be the best time? I say right before I flip (December 18th) ... Perhaps I would be wrong.

That should be a fine time to do it. Cuttings from the bottom part of the plant will have more of the hormones needed for rooting, but I have had success from anywhere really. I use Clonex gel.
