Cannatonic #4 the H.P. Cut

She's not cloning for me. I have about 16 more days before they go into the flower room, give or take, so I can take another clone before that. I plan to mix more perlite into my super soil to provide more aeration. It sucks because I've been pretty excited about growing her out and having those meds in a few months.
 
I'm having the hardest time keeping this healthy. I cloned successfully then place the first clones in Roots Organic. They burned bad. So the next batch of clones I did half Roots and half Jiffy seed starting mix. Those are burning as well. Should I use plain potting soil and supplement nutrients as I go? I've only one grow under my belt using Sub's Super Soil.

I've grown dozens of strains and never had issues like I did with this one. I grow in an organically amended soil too, and I tried everything. Finally broke down and purchased a DWC setup and she did amazing. My conclusion was that this strain needs a lot of oxygen to the root zone, and my soil was too dense with all of the worm castings and whatnot.

What I'm doing now is cutting my base soil with 25% more aeration bits than what I would otherwise use. That really lightens the soil up, and is working well for this strain. I would try adding more perlite (or what ever you use for aeration) and see if that helps. I think it will
 
Thanks guys. I have a giant bag of perlite somill mix something up tonight. Honestly, I've such a hard-on for this strain to work I'll DIY a DWC grow to get it to work.

No st0w i have not, haven't been there in a while. I'd like to land cherry pie from there. Golden Goat was compact and lemony. Malgerian sounds interesting

Malgerian... never heard of that. Any info on it?

So Golden Goat was lemony eh? Really pronounced lemon, or just a hint? I need some lemon in my life! Good smoke?
 
The plant just cannot support itself. I've maybe 10 bamboo stakes holding it up. The branches are so weak. Perhaps I didn't have enough fan on it are I topped it one too many times. It smells fantastic.
 
Not a fan of roots organic... seems that when ever I was called in for the problems u are having there was always Roots being used...
The Perkins is a very light feeder that needs lots of root space.. DWC like Sto said lots of air..
Cherry Pie is nice. ;)
 
Cherry Pie!!! Anything a descendant of Durban I'll try. In fact I have a 10 pack of Durban Poison I'm growing out in August. It's my favorite strain.
