Headband clones transplanted into coco pots and soil yesterday, they are a little droopy as expected but are doing fine. I need to find more of the large coco pots these little ones kind of suck. Some new pics just take of all the plants we have going right now. All the ladies except the HB are on nutes now, doing 1 tbs per gallon of RO water mixed with a little tap water. This is getting me a tds of 350 and the ladies seems to like it.

So here is where I am at right now. Gave the largest NYC Diesel to its owner for flowering, it was nice cause it made some needed space. I picked up some CaMg+ for my ladies, getting some purple stems. If you view this and like how I am doing please comment and leave rep. This is my first time doing this so I would like any and all feed back. This is going to be and all T5 HO grow with maybe 1-2 outside.

i wouldnt use soil, grow dwc, thats what i do, i grew soil before and its nothing compared to dwc, and its easy/ cheap to make and your weed tastes better. i grow 12/12 from seed and look how big my plant is, its 2 months and 1 week old. and the other babys is skunk og 2 weeks old. i grow from seed, not clones, and theres 2 plants in the big bucket, 1 is smaller and on the right and 1 is the big bushy one thats everywhere
I would claim BS to your hydro tasting better then my organic soil grow. I'll give you more yield but that's it. This is my opinion and not to be read as a fact.

Good luck it looks like you got yourself some fine looking ladies there.

I agree that organic soil grows taste better than hydro but a good grower can get just as good of a yield in soil as with hydro.
Thanks for the comment.

Well been awhile since I posted so a little up date. My 3 plants (NY Diesel, Pandoras Box and Blue Dream) are out flowering in the green house just starting to show flowers. They have been out side for a week now. I had an issue with thrips but I killed them all. The Head Band plants got the worst of the thrips and I think they can in with them. I have also made the next generation of clones and gotten 2 new strains 1 Agent Orange and 1 Banana Kush. So know I have Blue Dream, NY Diesel, Pandoras Box, Head Band, Banana Kush and Agent Orange. I hope to get this crop done and maybe squeeze in one more outside before the cold weather comes.

No new pics as of yet, I will try to take some today just been really busy.
My ladies in the green house are in full flower now! First time I have gotten a plant into flowering. Before when I tried to grow a seed I had no idea what I was doing and they died after about 2-3 weeks. My plants in veg under T5 lighting are growing like crazy, I have not looked at them in a few days and wow.

It looks like you're doing well, keep going. Remember if using CFL you'll want more light for flowering than in your pics, the flourescent tubes are a good gentle ambient light but consider investing in higher wattage CFL bulbs to take on the primary light role as the plants evolve. As they get bigger, the energy supplied by the tubes won't be able to keep up with demand. It'll work, but a few more potent CFL's will help. I'm a CFL fan, but you do need to have more rather than less of them. Normally when I have some spare cash, I invest in another bulb, and its not long before you have a setup that they could probably see from orbit, lol
if I had to pick cfl or t5 lighting id take t5 over cfl for any stage of a plants life.

Update:
The first grow is done. My 3 outdoor plants are finished and cured. For my first grow it turned out ok. Only got 10G per plant but the quality is very good.
