Al B Fuct takes clones that are 9-10 inches and when flowered they reach 36 inches... He is a Pro at SOG and does get about an Ounce per clone.

The genetics I am stuck with don't like to stretch that much.

Tallest I have in flower now is 20 inches.

Yea this is my second rotation in Hempy.

Started veg when they were 8-11 inches actually.

Last time they were 5-7 inches at start of flower.
 
I should mention that they have been eating more then the last run.

Been feeding with 8-16 lucas formula every other watering.

They were started on Half strength 5-10 ratio and I upped it as they grew.
 
Soon I will add a 4 foot T5 to the Veg Chamber. Right now I just have a regular 2 bulb 4 foot shop light.

Tomorrow I have to transplant from the bubble cloner to get 30 fresh Hempy's.

They are gonna have 3 weeks to sit in veg and wait for the flowering ones to finish.
 
This cutting had some long roots :)

I ran out of mix during my transplant last night, so I had to run over to the hydro store to pickup more perlite.

While I was there I got a T5 Light setup for my veg chamber. A four foot four bulb fixture.

Now that I have my veg area up to full speed I can choose what Clone, Seed or Phenotype to run. And I can veg stronger clones for flower.

I just sampled a bit from my outdoor grow and I plan on doing a run with one female I grew outside and made seed with.

I have 10 cuttings from it I just transplanted and I still have a mother of it inside. I will flower about 5 of them next rotation (indoor test) and reserve 5 of them to become mothers.

I still have at least 8 mothers of my seed. They will make up the majority of my next run.
 
Here is the Veg chamber on day 1 of veg with rooted cuttings.

The mothers on the left produced the clones in the fresh Hempy's

There are 2 bagseed seedlings in the back for testing way later. And mixed in are a few cuttings from individuals in flower now. I took those the first couple of days of flower to help me select a Phenotype. I have it all labeled.

Now to see how big these new clones get before Nov 17th - 18th. bongsmilie


I like my new T5 light, it seems to light my area nicely. And its Bright. My next chore is to make some reflective walls instead of the Black Plastic.
 
Awesome set-up and good turnover. Have you ever considered trying vertical? I'm just curious, not trying to push you one way or the other. I figured if you yielded a hp off of those on a flat garden, how much could you get just by surrounding the bulb?
 
I saw pics of a Hempy Vertical grow and it looked interesting.

A fair amount of planning and work is needed to make the Frame. And iam no carpenter :)

Flood tubes would probably be easier then a Vertical Hempy setup.
