Best of luck bro, hope this lot go smoothly for you :)
Thanks man, I'm gonna put 12 into flower tomorrow instead of doing 5 under a light. Im curious if a couple plants I think are duds really are (and if they are it would suck only running the big dud plants, so I figure throw a bunch more in just in case). Fingers crossed, one of these days I'll figure it out lol

Here's what I'm talking about when i say dud branch or dud plant. This is the same strain, both are of the lowest buds on the plant. Left is dud right is normal. :( hopefully with this pic everyone can understand if you didn't know what I was talking about when i did mention it

Sounds like a plausible way to attack it mate. If it were me, I probably would've given up by now lol. Your system is so clean too, I'm pretty puzzled how and why it's happening to you...I know you'll figure it out though :)

That's heaps weird hey...very odd indeed!
Super wierd bro, and the dud bud is super doo doo too! Lol, at least it's not happening at a bad rate and causing too much bud itto go to waste, I think my next angle of approach will be putting some mamas outside in the sun and doing organic feeding. There's something about the sun that can restore genetics and boost the immune system, kind of like a factory reset for plants :)

Congrats. Don't get too excited yet I had a few house fall through because of appraisal and inspections. Hope it works out boss

Much appreciated everyone!! :D
Sorry I couldn't make it @fandango we had some house showings to go to and some paper work to take care of that weekend :(

@adower thanks bro! And for sure, the inspections are what worries me the most, especially with the drought and this house having a well, I hope the well is finefine, and also the septic. The house itself looks fine, it was built in 93 so shouldn't be too much work that needs to be done (I hope!) I think it will appraise OK it was sold in 2007 right before the housing crash for a hell of a lot more than we offered, so I'm hoping since things are starting to rebound it'll go ok

Got the last batch into flower today. They are a little too big so will see how it goes, I pre-lollipopped them all already, the 4 big ones in the front are the plants I'm worried about, well 3/4 of them, the big black lime on front left is fine and healthy but the 3 mendos I'm not sure about. Figured screw it and let em rip and hope for the best. The rest of the plants are A-OK with nice roots and healthy, the mendos roots aren't that great. There are animal cookies, mendo Breath #2, sherbert, Bubba kush and black lime reserve. Might be one more strain in there but not sure. This will most likely be the last hoorah here, bitter sweet :)

These gals will be planted into dirt for the outdoor run as soon as I get a chance. There's animal cookies, dosido, spog91, mendo Breath #1, Tahoe og and Blueberry Cookies

The mendo #1 and animal cookies are at 28 days in today, entering week 5 tomorrow. They are doing well! I'm loving the way some mendos are stacking. The animal cookies looks to be a smaller yielder but she's cruising along nicely for a cookie cut. Starting to get some frost on the mendo and heavy frost on the animals

Looking great. Never have asked, but how often do you harvest in your setup now? Split into 2 or 3 "sites" seedlings, veg, flower?

Wheels been turning on what I'm going to do with this tent soon so just racking up the ideas. It will be 2 bulbs hung vertical, but I was kicking ideas around for RDWC, BUT for simplicity purposes I think I'm going to stick with supersoil/ no till in probably 15 gallon pots, maybe 25 gallon

I harvest at least 1x a month, sometimes 2x but right now just 1x. In veg I usually take cuts off the plants I'm going to flower, right before flower, I have x2 8 bulb t5 and each one is over a 2x4 tray. I can fit about 18 full size 24" veg plants comfortable in each tray and I flower 9 per light. Im thinking of getting 1 more 2x4 tray and another t5 for mamas but haven't decided yet. Pretty much every month 18 plants go out to flower, and right before I take 24 cuts. Takes 2 weeks in the cloner to fully root, I give them 7 days to take hold after I transplant, then about 30 days for veg, then repeat. I use the extra cuts I take strictly for cuts and toss the plant, because sometimes I don't want to take clones off a certain plant if it's too small and I want the tops. Pretty simple routine. I love super soil, if only my back could still handle soils and pots on a daily basis I'd probably still be in soil, but hydro has its perks too, especially the ease after its dialed in
