I decided it was time to share pictures of my BlueBerry. Don't know anything for sure about the clone but if it turns out to be the plant i think it is it would be a shame for me to not share some pics at least.....but first...

The basics: clones or seedlings are kept in 3 inch neoprene collars from start to finish. Botanicare nutrients are mainly used.

I'm using an aeroponic clone unit and veg unit. Both are kept next to eachother and lite by 5 26W cfls. 2 5000K and 3 6500K. They are kept on a 18/6 light schedule. Temperature is around 60-75 depending on time of day and weather. RH is kept around 50-65%. Reservoir is 65-70F.

For flower, 5 gallon DWC buckets are used with an air-stone at the bottom. The room is sealed and equipped with an air conditioner, dehumidifier, and CO2. Night cycle is kept at 72F and 60% RH and 80-82F and 60%RH during the day.

Well theres a little info for anyone who's interested, and some pictures. Any questions are welcome.

Thanks pilgram,

....and now a little more about blueberry...

First off, i put blueberry in at 18in with the 1000W hps vertical. And early on slightly suppercropped (or should i say knocked the top of the plant over when i was trying to tie it to a stick)....either way, it caused the plants branches to slightly angle up. And due to the vertical light all the branches are on one side of the plant, which is most definitively causing a balance issue.

But to the more important part, i discovered a fairly major light leak in the flower room that was happening for the first 5 hours of lights off. I have since fixed the problem but i fear it may have screwed up my flowering schedule. Blueberry is 38 days into flowering in the pictures i posted but bud development seems to be super slow. i'm not sure it's because of the light leak or just the fact its a sativa strain.

If anyone has any thoughts or ideas of why bud development is so slow id love to hear them

Light leak in room caused elongation of all the buds and strange single bladed growth to appear. Overall though it seems to have significantly increased the yield. Couple of pictures of Blueberry at day 80.

And for a little bud porn, Diesel and 2 phenos of Burmese Kush
