Out of interest@ oscar, I know you have the Livers down pat, have you ever run it in a SOG from rooted clones out of interest? Got that and the Blue Meanie and want to get a crop in for xmas so am thinking of just fillinbg the room up[ with cuts n flipping to flower etc

I've flowered livers cuttings as soon as theyve started growing again. So they were about six inches tall. They also don't need to be too close to each other, they'll fill the space. If you did nine under a 600w in a 1.2 tent you should hit around the 20 oz mark. Providing you don't get any pests or other stuff that can go wrong. Hope that helps. A Christmas crop is achievable I'd think

how is your bm? everyone had struggles getting it to grow in veg last i heard.
the thing that can mislead some growers is the definition of the word cutting, it can be broad as fuck.
i remember the second (and last) time i bought cuttings, they were literally a twig with one hacked up leaf and one measly taproot. they also had mites on them which took me a while to eradicate so now i don't take cuttings in batches, i will take one strong cut and veg it into a mother and even then i will only accept cuttings that are from a reputable source, i'd rather pheno hunt my own special cut anyway.
whenever i take cuttings i will make them as big as possible, which is usually around 8 inches tall so they can fit under the propagator lid without touching it, i also leave them in there until they have all rooted, this usually results in one big fuzzy mess of roots that sometimes need to be broken to remove the clones. it basically guarantees you will hit at lest 2 oz from that cutting no matter what you do.
i like the sound of the livers to grow, never had the pleasure but from what i hear it does like a stretch so seems ideally suited to sog with minimal veg time, whenever i smoked it it was always very racy and pure rotten fruit stench!

Sounds like we have a very similar method of doing cuttings.
I do mine about six inches. You must have slightly larger prop than me lol
Livers just about doubles in size. The Cheese I'm doing at the moment has more than trebled. They're really spindly and lanky and my canopy probably isn't to some peoples liking lol
To Ribena. A six to eight inch well rooted cutting in a three inch block put into your chosen medium will be more than ready by Christmas. Livers takes nine weeks you can take it early as seven though, but it obviously won't be as heavy. I've let it go to twelve because I didn't the time to chop it and the high was more sedative but it wasn't any heavier really.
You could do with the cuttings sooner rather than later though

Yeah its slow vegging and slow rooting, livers took 11 days to root in a coco plug n BM took 16 and is still the same size doing fuckall whereas the livers is 8" tall already n growing daily think unless its exceptional smoke ill be getting rid of it sooner than planned as ive only got a tiny veg tent and ive got another strain on the way in the next few weeks as well so need to sort something out lol

cheers mate there are 12 livers and 5-6 Bm in the prop rooting, 1st livers popped roots this morning, livers are going to a mate who im helping to setup n im gonna have the BM`s, soon as they have roots into flower in a 6.5L square, also got a 3.5L to try out/compare, as soon as they are out the prop though i can immediately take another 20`ish cuts
Plan is to fill the cupboard up completely, 6.5Lsquare pots butted up against each other and ive got some 3L coke bottle for emergencies if i run out of squares for an xmas crop
Westland with john innes, No.2 n NO.3 mixes in equal parts, perlitea nd Canna Terra Flores nutes nice n simple lol

Yea I been pheno hunting cheese surprise. 2 of them are pretty lanky, but so many fucking bud sites. The 3rd pheno, (its gonna flower indoor now) has some much bigger leaves, tighter nodes, and more robust architecture. Keep wondering if perhaps this is the DPQ heavy (the purple pheno)
I would love to try some livers, but hard to find that CONUS. Got some crosses, so have to settle for that.
Anyway, stay free stay high

Yep, a loft. It doesn't look like it'll yield as well as Livers but that might change though because it's a slightly longer flower time on cheese.
Some of the taller colas that are too close to the lights have got that weird skinny foxtail thing happening. I'm also going to have to try and put a net over them too because they've out grown the cages. It won't be fun though because the space is very limited and its five and a half weeks in flower.

another cheese one wrapped up.
1320g from 1800w which is more than i was expecting but still a pretty poor yield compared to what i am used to. less than two weeks after harvest it is all gone
i just picked up some other cheese from a friend and it isn't as nice as mine was lol
i will be re-stocking this garden shortly with more cheese, it's a favourite in these parts what can i say.
