do you have a mother plant or do you just do seed if not you should think about starting one cause there easy to take care of and its really nice to be able to take clones when ever you want all i do is i veg some plants for like 2 weeks and the one that is the biggest i put her in a 5 gallon bucket of nothing but perlight and drill 2 or 4 littel holes 2 inches from the bottem of the bucket and then take the RW and cut the papper off it and just put it in the bucket and fill it up wuth the perlight and then just water it with veg nutes and what i do is water water feed and i just test the run off to let me know what i need to bring the ph and ppm to its the easy way of doing hydro in my eyes , I also will flower it after a few months and pull like a qp off just that one plant . Mothers just make it so easy to keep a perpetual going cause any time you need clones there right there to take and since your going to start doing hydro that would be the way to go
