This wil be the story of two Hashberry mothers and their offspring.

Thought I'd get a long termjournal going...Basically a forum for my benfit from exparienced mother keepers and people willing to help me along, and it will rely on those people to keep it going. Ive got one grow under my belt however Im unable to flower at my current home so basically hording clones for a later date....

Bellow are posted my 2 mothers and mother to be, trimmed to Bonsai in 3.5" pots. Hashberry #1 & #2 sprouted from soil 1/1/11, HB Clone#1 was the sole clone surviver from the topings of HB#1 & 2 resulting in 4 woody clones about 5 weeks from cut.

HBC#1 seem to be growing along nicely. Just showing die back on the 2 larges fan leaves from its cutting exparience, however the leaves do look abit "Puffy".

HB#1 & 2 these two plants are from seed and should be almost ready to take their 2nd set of cuttings, as you can seen they are both rather unhealthy.

Their first feed with approx, 5weeks ago and I burnt them pretty bad. They recovered great only to decline again. Im pretty worried about them to be honest. For feed I have a bottle of Kiwicare orgain fertiliser 5-1-1, suggested dosage is 5-7ml per litre of water. Purchased approx. 18mnths ago.

I water every 3 days when the pots are light. Im too scared to feed haha. Water is pH'd to 6.5. Ive got fungus nats, which I been treating with Neem oil and water mixed to full recommended strength as a soil drench and foilage spray, every 10ish days, and using yellow sticky sheets, this is bringing them under control. Soil seems pretty compacted, and as you can see the roots ain't pearly white. Did ad a teaspoon of molasses to 5L of water about 2weeks ago, but I think the plants reacted adversely to this. New growth tend to dry out, turn brown, and drop off.

Heres the photos, help me out with some input, I dont even get to see them stretch all happy like no more :wall:

Runnoff is the same as what goes in. Im unable to transplant the plants as the whole point is to keep the in a small pot as bonsai mothers (search "bonsai moms" if your interested). Due to circumstances I'm lving back at home with my mum and just don't have the space to set up my 400w setup, with my veg tent, fish tanks, computers, furniture etc theres just no room!
