Not yet. Sunshine Mix4+Perlite for our medium with the full BotaniCare nute line for feeding. SS some dayHovering do you grow in SS?
Thanks Senseimillia,Nice video eric! My normal camera is busted up so doing a video journal myself this round -- just started 6 cheesequake germing on saturday ight - 2 pushing dirt at the moment -- hope I get 100% germ on my TGA beans. Got apollo and ace of spades running too (the ace of spades! the ace of spades!)
I have some beans i'm gonna be germing later that are also cheese crosses, so interested to see how they compare.
Thanks Tranka32. I have photos and words in this thread, the video has been put in by Eric at our request. Anything CheeseQuake here ya know! Anyway, thanks for the kind wordsNicely done Hovering. I really liked the video and commentary, thank you for the work... T
Loving my cheese so far... hovering did yours have fatter or thinner leaves when young? It looks like I got a more indica pheno and a more sativa. Which were yours?
Also I thought I saw a thread about what you do with your testers as far as when you top to get your 4 colas and such... mine are just now sprouting side branches
Hovering Hows it going? I don't know if you remember my run of Cheese Quake but I lost the mom from an overheating issue. I ended up taking cuts from the flowering CQ's that were in they're 6th week or so of flower. The cuttings finally have made a turn around and today I took cuts off of those rooted clones. It took about two months to go from a budded branch to a re-vegged viable donor plant. That was the first time I have ever had to take a cut from a plant that was so far into flower. That smoke was so good I was ecstatic when I got to this point. Was about like taking care of a newborn these last two months worrying about those cuts. Those genetics are solid as a rock any other strain would have probably hermed all over itself. Hope all is good in your garden. Keep Er Green!
Pic of one a week before they out 5 blade leaf sets.
Like you I'm keeping mine short... how many nodes do you let grow out above the ones you want to take before you take a cut? Just hoping I get a high success rate on the cuts so i only have to take one each (since i'll be cloning 20)I got both an indica and sativa pheno in my 5 pack. Both are incredible but my keeper was the sativa leaning. Less finish weight but it had the hidden CBD's I was looking for plus the amazing grape danish flavor. Fucking incredible and still my favorite smoke to date.
I let my side branching catch up a bit while keeping her short with fluorescent lighting tight on top of them. When I top I make a clone for a mother plant so you want to have enough nodes to take your clone plus have 4-6 branches for budding colas.
I take pretty small clones, usually I cut about a 4" top that has 3-4 nodes. I do my 45 degree cut just below the bottom node and then strip that bottom node off so it gets hit with rooting solution and is below my rooting medium. I like to have one node below ground on a clone and 2-3 above ground. The above ground nodes will be cut back by cutting all fan leaves in half, across the blade, so that they don't require much space or energy but can still "power" their node while the cutting roots.Like you I'm keeping mine short... how many nodes do you let grow out above the ones you want to take before you take a cut?
