Well Here Goes Again

We'll see how this works. I set it for 60. I'll watch the thermometer, and check the old one when lights come on.

Hey Dan, Was having the same prob and looked into these as a way to heat it withour the energy cost. IDK if it would work for you.

ooohh, its infrared too

I think it would be too much. I needed heat low too. That is too close to the bulb I burnt those two with. Perfect for a Sulfur Burner though.
68 to 74 all night. Holding fine so far today. I think Noel will be happy. I did turn it to 55 the lowest it goes. See if I can keep overnight between 65 & 70.
If I got 1 more of these I think it would work for the Fridge to make it available.

So I did a mini-experiment to see which worked better some Fish Emulsion or Jack's on the clones. 2 got F.E. 3 got Jack's. 3 of the 5 are showing some growth today. #3-A & #6-A are the F.E. and #2-A is the Jack's all showing growth. #4-A is worrying me a bit. #5-A still perky though.
#1 is ready to up-can soon. SS are keeping up.
The 5 in 1 gal. pots will be ready for a 'Rain' soon. They're at 7 am to 11pm working down.

Looks good bro, very nice PURPS!!!

Clones are doing OK, but 5-A & 4-A less so. I think 2-A, 3-A & 6-A are going to the PC soon.
We're down to 15 hours of light now on these Main 5.

wow, the originals are getting huge. you picked a mom yet?

Nicely done Dan. You are an excellent cloner. So is it a wash on the Fish vs. Jack?

Great question Gumball. Still trying to decide on that one. So I'm considering this. Pull a clone from each of these 6 to show it's a female. I can decide the best when the clones are done. Lovin' #5 though, so IDK.
So a huge ? in breeding is the male. Hard to tell which one is better. So since I'm breeding the Purple Rain I want the shorter squatter pheno. & the more purple the better.
Since you brought it up I've been thinking about another problem I have. I think I have to pull a couple clones from my Mums to re-start Mums. I want to keep these strains, but 4 to 6 months more? They have been trimmed twice, and will need another hair cut in a week or two. I'll need to fit three Mums there.
I'm gonna end up pulling clones and putting them into the crock pot.
Kinda kills me to kill 2 plants dying to be flowered. Just have no room. Super Skunk is trailing too.

Undecided. Both I fed the Fish poop were strong going into that, and of the Jack's 3 #3-A was the most to take off. I think a 5-1-1 (F.E) was more needed than a 2-2-2 ratio.

I got three clones into the E-Series PC today. They start flowering tomorrow.

Looking very nice. Quick question though about cloning....How long to you approximately wait after you plant the clipping and switch to 12/12? Does a clipping take the same amount of time to show sex then a plant that has been vegging for like 50 days? Thanks Daniels

The clones seem to take a couple weeks to show they are ready to begin (roots are going), but I'd still wait a week or two. I'm seeing strong new growth so I think they are ready. Yea, they do take the same time. It's the hours of darkness for a chemical to build up, then with light that chemical reverts to it's dormant state. Once the plant has that build up for a few days it thinks fall is coming. A plant vegged a week or 10 weeks will show pretty much the same.

Thanks for the answers Daniels
THIS BUDS FOR YOU!

Some BlueDream I picked up.

I decided to up-can the last clone #1-A into it's 16 oz. cup today.
I fed the four Super Skunk a 1.5-1.2-2 Flair Form for seedlings. I watered around the edges to promote roots to spread.
I fed #1 a 100% Jack's (1/2 tsp./qt.) with a 1/2 tsp. Fish Emulsion & 1 tsp. Epsom Tea. So it's ahead of the other 5 by a couple doses of Jack's.
I fed #2-#6 a 200% Jack's (2 tsp./gal.) with 1 tsp. da Fish Poop & 1 tsp. Epsom Tea. I decided to move #4 back to the veg table for a while.
Tomorrow I do a temp. test because I got a heater for the Fridge. Not sure if it will hold low enough, but we'll see.

Pardon my highness right now cause I slammed two bowls of that BlueDream.....Am I thinking the 4 large plants that are topped Daniels Purps? or are they Super Skunk? Damn I thought the large topped ones were the Purps.... Either way some clarifying for me would be helpful they are look awesome anyway!


BKB

The Main 6 are Purple Rain from RMC. 5 are up-canned into 1 gal. #1 is a week behind. All 6 clones with a -A are their tops from the UB style topping. The 4 seedlings are the SS from another friend. last sprouted the 14th. So nice vigor for 1 week. Oh, just wait it will get silly from here on out.
There will spliting chambers with some planned experiments, then some pollen collecting & painting colas with it.

Now I know I'm in the right place!

On my way to the hydro store to pick up my new netpots and hydroton I stopped by my dispensary to pick up my weekly medicine. Scored a 1/4 of Blue Dream for $65! Also picked up an eighth of Louis. My little Xmas present!

I guess I'm looking forward to my Blue Dream baby to get some big buds! Now to go figure out how hydroton works.
