White Poison - 2 liter Hempy SOG

[Xare]

Totes will work.

I just like the mobility of the single pots.

It gives me the ability to move plants around under the light, or if something were to happen to one of them it would not put the rest of my plants at risk from root rot.

Two liter hempys use less media then 1 large bin or 4 rubbermaids would. And, they were free There is more than sufficient root space for a SOG'ed clone in a two liter hempy pot.

Bigger hempy buckets are suited for plants with a longer veg time.

Scribed.. Hey I was wondering if instead of using 75% perlite and 25% vermiculite can you use 75% perlite and 25% Soil Moist?

cheers mate i had given some thought to if some thing went wrong with 1 of them but didn't come up with any solid solutions, originally i didn't think a small area (2L) would hold enough root space but was obviously wrong lol i might go the same way and just put them on a flood table then, can't go wrong with some freebies they'll cost me about 30p each at the cheapest i imagine, i already picked up chunky perlite mate do you think it'll work ok with the bottles?

Ohh, those water crystals. It would not take 25% They retain alot more water then vermiculite. Ive used them in an outdoor grow before, they get quite large when they get wet. Maybe if you used small crystals and pre-soaked them before mixing with the perlite.

If you want to go more days between watering, that may be a benefit of larger totes. I feel that frequent watering of passive hydro pots is a good thing. It refreshes the reservoir and displaces some of the stale air so that new oxygen can be pulled in.

Yea ive heard that chunky perlite works fine.

yea that is truu i didnt think of that.. i was trying to find a sub 4 vermiculite that doesnt have the health risk and that isn't a mission 2 get

[purplecream]

Update:

Just checked on the clones and saw the first sign of roots

In another week or so they will all have a starter root system. And they will be ready to be transplanted into two liter hempys.

Lookin good man.. wow... White Poison sounds like a BOMB Ass strain man!! Mmmmmm.... Can u actually buy seeds of this strsin?? or did u make it urself? Sounds really good tho.. I was thinkin about tryna do something similar actually.. Crossing my White Widow with Nirvana's "Urban Poison" (its Durban Poison x Northern lights) supposed to be the "indoor" version of Durban Poison. Cant wait to see it flower!! Subscribed.. and +Rep for sure!

 

[IAm5toned]

white poison= white widox x durban poison

pretty sure you can find it at one of the big seed banks... not sure who the breeder is though

 

[Xare]

I was given cuts of White Poison from the Breeder, a local guy who is a good grower.

He took White Widow and Durban Poison parents to make this cross. I never asked him what seed banks he used to select the P1's

The next time me and the breeder have a chat ill ask him if he remembers what stock he used. I don't know if he kept the parents or F1 seed. But if he didn't Ill make some S1's aka Fems


Ive looked around but cant find White Poison seeds from any seedbank yet. But its an impressive cross. Some of the best smoke ive seen around here.


I also plan on breeding WP to my personal seedline ive been working with for the last few years.

is it time for an update yet mate?

 

[Xare]

Just been topping off the water in the bubble cloner.

Water temps have been kinda cool, about mid 60's. So I bumped up the heater a bit.


One cutting popped roots, and I gave one rooting cut away.

The rest are growing root bumps on the stem and will burst with roots any time now.

First rooted cutting:

 

[W Dragon]

good stuff mate i'm looking forward to watching this 1 through all the stages as it happens, thanks for keeping it up mate

 

[GangstaChronic]

can't wait!

 

[Xare]

More of the WW x DP cuts are rooting:

Tomorrow is 3 weeks in the cloner. And it looks like transplant into the hempys is just a few more days away.

 

[IAm5toned]

those roots look nice and healthy....

tho i am kinda turned off by the 3 weeks in.. why so long? is it strain related? or is rez temp high?
cloning has always been a pain for me, i will admit.

 

[Xare]

The previous cuts I rooted in this cloner also took 3 weeks to be fully rooted.

Usually at 2 weeks I have the first sign of roots and by 3 weeks they are ready for transplant. Once they start rooting, root growth is fast.

This batch will need a couple extra days. I think its because the cuts were dark green and heavy on nitrogen when they went in the cloner. The tips that have re-grown while in the cloner have seven bladed leaves.

Water temps have been low. Between 60-72.

They will root faster 75-80 but slime has a chance to grow at those temps.


I like the bubble cloner over using humidity domes because its hands free. No spraying is necessary, just top off the water level and keep temps in line. It gives me a very high success rate too.
