First time CFL grow using Homebox™

Alright guys so its time for an update. The buds are looking bigger than ever. I included a good shot of one of my top colas, over 1.5in tall now :)

It's probably too late to successfuly do this (we're 25ish days in to flowering) but we took 2 clones from the very bottom of the plant. 1 of the clones has like 4 pistils, the other has 2 so they arent very developed flower wise. Here's to hoping it works because I really want to save this plant's genetics and maybe cross it with our Northern Lights. Any suggestions from someone who knows what they're doing on this part? We followed instructions on how to clone and put them in some blocks. Sprayed the leaves with some water and put it under 24 hours blue light.

On that subject we started germinating 5 Northern Lights seeds and will go out tomorrow for more lights to start our new seedlings.

Below are some new pics. Not too much has changed, some parts of the plant got burned from our 42 watt bulbs :(. Seems to have regained her vigorous budding though. Now I'm being more careful with those lights.

And I'm waiting :)
Know anything about taking clones during flower, Knowm?

Since this is my first grow and I really have no idea; anyone want to wager on yield?

She's 23 inches tall, same in width, 25 days into flowering.

Cloning is fun :)

Took 2 more clones yesterday. They are smaller, I'm going to watch them to see if they revert faster than the big ones. A small experiment I guess

Here's a lineup of em. 2 of em are looking real happy, the other 2 are a little droopy. Tell me what ya think

not bad at all. you should just re vegg one of those for a mother plant. not hard at all and then just keep takin clones and have a harvest every month. not hard just wait till the mother plant gets huge and then take a clone and then str8 flower it and by like 3 or 4 weeks ull have bud to dry and cure.=]

I'm re-veggin all 4 of them. I have 5 NL seeds germinating (2 have popped so far) and I'm going to grow them all together. By the time the seedlings are as tall as the clones, the clones will be fully back in veg stage.

This time around I'm going to take clones during veg stage to determine sex of the NL (free up space in my limited grow space for the females) and to take a mother of each plant to my BFs place. This second grow is going to veg under CFL and flower under a 150 or 250 watt HPS
