Well, it is now day 42 of this grow.
It has been eight days since I took the six clones and they are not yet showing any signs of roots. I forgot to leave a fan blowing on the blanket on a really hot day and the water in the res got mucho warm... not good.
Since I finally have a couple of days off of work, I went to Radio Shack and picked up a 4 inch AC fan (85cfm) and bolted it up to the back of the cab. Heat is no longer an issue and the clones aren't dead by any means. So I'll give them 2 or 3 more days before I start a new batch.
But there is very good news!!!
Emerald has hit puberty and she's showing nice little white hairs on her preflowers.
Violet is developing more slowly, but I think that may have to do with the successful FIM I performed on it.
So, I at least know for sure now that I will have a harvest within the next 9-12 weeks.

Holyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy shit...
It is crazy bitch city at my house tonight!
My roommate's chick is fucking psycho!!!
I made the mistake of going out with them tonight and I finally got completely fed up with her no job, three kid-having, pill-popping, alcoholic, white trash ass.
So I do the more polite thing and just leave the area. I go to play "Castle Bandits" on the Megatouch. Then the bitch decides she needs to come and apologize for her behavior, but that's kinda like "crying wolf," it only works a few times before it starts losing value. I proceed to illuminate her on that idea... the look on her face was precious, I should have taken a pic to share with you guys.
Anyway... now I have the utmost pleasure of hearing this psycho chick scream at the top of her lungs through 3 walls and I need to vent so it is on you guys now...
Any psycho bitches in your recent?

You should have meet my ex-wife. She was the queen of the psycho bitches. When she died (in a house fire) my brother went around the house singing "ding dong the witch is dead" You know, from the Wizard of OZ. As for the cloning, I've read, and had better luck with the bottom of the stalk above the water line. Said something about rot on the bottom if it is under water. But you need enough air bubbles to keep popping to spray them. I don't do it that way now though. I use the small round Stonewool brand and just put them in the tray they came with. I don't use gel or powder, I make a mix of stuff in the water I use and have 100% success. Very simple. Around 10-14 days to show roots. I like it that way, nothing to plug in but a small light and I do about 20 at a time lately. I need to do another batch soon.

My roommate finally got tired of it and booted her ass out of the house. She then proceeded to break our front window and started screaming "rape."
That's when we called the cops.
So all in all, this has been a really shitty two days off of work.

Damnit man!!

Yeah, me too. But, she doesn't have a car and lives 30 miles across town. So I'm not too worried about her coming back. And Derek is filing a restraining order against her. Had photos taken of him by the cops and everything.Damnit man!!
But on the garden side of things...
Those clones were dumped. They had slime at the bottom of their stems and one had mold on it, so I took 6 more off of only Emerald. They are much bigger cuttings than the last ones and I spent a bit more time making sure they were cut properly.
I also lowered the level of the water in the cloning tub so that the stems are no longer submerged. Although I do have an airstone on each side of the tub so the stems are getting a nice misting from the bubbles. I also have heat under control in that cabinet, it runs between 82-85F now with the blanket down. I also added a humidity dome which is simply my original 3gallon tub that was clear and placed upside down on the cloner. A few big holes on the sides make sure things don't get clammy in there.
Anyway, like I said before, as soon as I have a rooted batch of clones, 12/12 will begin.
Here's to making some dough in the next four days so I can finally get my HPS dammit!

Ok... everything is back to normal, almost. Still need to have that window fixed, so there goes getting the HPS this month. 
That's ok though, because yesterday I went and got a 6-pack of 26watt 2700K's from Mao-Mart to help things along until I get the HPS. Which may have to wait until after I get proper ventilation and odor control...
...it's getting musky in here, smells like a skunk dipped in diesel fuel.
Anyway... back to the girls.
Yes, I said girls. As in multiple. Violet has just grown her first set of pistils.
PPMs are at 1800, ph is rock solid at 5.9. Once these girls drink half their res I'm switching over to the flowering mix of nutes with a healthy dose of koolbloom. That should be within the next two days or so.
Oh yeah, the new batch of cuttings, all from Emerald, are doing much better than the last batch. That fan made all the difference in the world. Also, the airstones got a good wet-grinding and are producing much more air than before, so it's misty under the lid now.

Anyway... I need to start looking for a tub that will fit next to my 3 gallon tubs in that clone box so I can keep a mommy in there.

Hey I was getting that slime on clones in the past and found I needed to seal the container of light leaks, especially in a bubble cloner. Wrap it it foil or paint it to make sure.
Also run some h202 in the bbl cloner or spring for house and garden root excellerator, thats the shit.

The slime is no longer there since I have temps under control in there. I have 3x26W 6500K in that cab and it sits at 82 degrees. And I have been using H2o2. But thanks for chiming in, bro!
