Hi, I've got a problem, a really newbie one. I'd like to have 2 closets, one for the vegetation state and the other for flowering of course. But I know that the vegetative state is much shorter than the flowering. So, I will inevitably end up with 2 room in flowering state. If I do my clones from the plants in my first closet that is about to go in flowering mode, then I put them on the other closet, but they will need to be put in flowering mode before I harvest those in my 1st closet, thus me having to buy new seeds again. So, my question is, possible to this with only 2 closets? Recently I thought that to resolve this, I need have another little room only for a mother, but don't have the money for it.

Thanks in advance!


ps: Sorry for my english, I'm a quebecer. Peace out :peace:

Not sure exactly what you are asking but I'll try to answer.

The veg stage has longer hours of light and different lighting so if you are growing in doors you want to separate these. If you are growing one plant, not going to create clones or keep a mother plant than a single closet is all you need. However if you are going to grow continuously, having a mother plant for clones, then two areas for growing are needed because you don't want the 18/6 light seeping into your flower area that is at 12/12 light.

I personally don't have two closets. I have one which for flowering and for vegging I just create a separate area covered to keep light from seeping out and effecting the flowering room.

Is this going to be your first grow?

You can leave the mother plant in the vegatative room with the clones, it will do nothing but get bigger untill your ready to flower it. You can transfer your clones to the flower room when your ready.

If you have two rooms, your perfect.
Just continually take clones veg them out, then move them to the flowering room when ever your ready.

ooooooooooooh, I understand, I don't know why but I forgot I wasn't obligated to put them in flowering when they are ready I can just chop em a little bit. That's probably why you didn't understood my question very well. But yea, i have two rooms, I mean will when my plants will be ready to be put in flowering. I have all the materials ready. It will be my third grow also :P

you decide if you want to grow 2 big plants in big buckets or 25 plants in 1 gallon pots. veg the clones or the mother until they are as big as you want them to be.
It would be tricky if you had never taken clones or cuttings but if you do it right you can take care of it basically like a seedling. thats the whole point of a sea of green right? you know what the results will be and never have to buy seeds or clones at all, but its hard work any way you slice it. harder than buying plant materials and just 'growing' no offense to anyone.

i suggest the veg room smaller of the two. When you have a mother, and you want to keep one for later just flower mom and use a clone that is much smaller for the veg room fit. If the rooms are close and light may be an issue get a painting tarp role for 10 bucks at walmart. staple around the room with a velcrow opening and a layer over the velcro.

Thanks for the suggestions. I know light would be an issue so yea, I was going make my 2nd room light-tight and I bought some velcro to make a door.
