Ok so hi all things seem to be coming along nicely...i got a lot of viewson this thread but not many comments so please give me your opinions....
Pic 1 - A new set of clones, cut on Sunday evening so about 36 hours old now...
Pic 2 - As you can see the clones are a lot bigger and thicker stemmed than previous ones...this should be good...bigger stems bugger budstalks
Pic 3 - My mother table after taking clones, basically i topped all of my 'big' plants and this has created a lot of space for light to get to my super lemon haze mothers which have not developed enough yet...
Pic 4 - Another pic of mothers....showing how much space there is compared with the pic from a week ago....
Pic 5 - A Super Lemon Haze mother which is developing nicely, already has some cloning potential but ill wait a bit before i do take clones....
Pic 6 - A group shot of my 1st flower table, been flowering about 10 days now but 7 of them were under the 125w so about another 7 weeks left...
Pic 7 - A close-up of 1 of my lemons in flowering, you cant see form this closeup but all the clones in flower have white hairs forming so hopefully see some bud soon...
Pic 8 - My cooltube setup over 1 flowering table...same fan as extractor so temps still a bit high (27-28c) but a new fan is on the way so it will be changed soon....
Okay so as i said in previous posts i was gonna do a fair bit of ordering so i dont mess myelf up anymore....basically i ordered...
2 x Flood and Drain Table Kits
2 x Cooltubes
2 x 600w HPS Bulbs
2 x EZ hangers
1 x 10" Extractor fan
50 pots
Still to get
1 Flood and drain table
1 cooltube
1 bulb
I didnt order all of it because i didnt have the money right now but when all of this arrives by the end of the week i will have enough equipment to last me for another month at the least, during which i will order the last bits....
Okay so back to the grow...i cut some clones on sunday evening, they were all a little fragile because they were from the top of the plant, and if you look at the previous pics they were very cloe to the light therefore they had burned or taken a hit of heatstroke lol.....they all drooped immediately but they have been in the cloner 36 hours now and looking good like my previous clones, so hopefully all will be ok...but as you can see they are all a lot bigger which in my view is better for what im doing, SOG.
As soon as these have roots which i think will be this weekend, probably sunday, i am moving them to the flowering room..i took 28 clones 2 of which were lemon haze clones, jut to make 1 a mother and the other 1 to flower and see the results...and out of the 26 left theres about 15 lemon and 10 great white sharks.....
I did the same when cloning except this time i didnt make the slit up the middle of cut-stem....i didnt do this because last time i cloned the bootom turned brown and looked dead and roots came further up the stem, so i dont think it helped at all.......also in my cloner res i put normal ph'd water with 50ml of Canna Rhizotonic, which i hope should help them root faster and healthier but again im experimenting so we'll see.....
So all in all things are going well, the only problems right now are the fact that my extractor fan for the flowering room is also my cooltube extractor, but i cant do anything about this until i recieve my new fan.....i ordered a 10" fan which i will use as my main extractor fan, and the 8" fan i have already will cool my cooltubes which are 6", i already have the 200mm-150mm reducers so this should be good, also just to point out my cooltubes are going to be vented from outside the rooms airmass, which means the fan will suck air from outside the tent, through the cooltubes and back out the tent, which should mean i can control the temps inside the temp a lot easier.....
Anyways guys ill update with some pics when the rest of the equipment arrives and i have it setup, until then please give me some opinions or whateva u want, thanks
