Jig man. I know why, but I don't know how, you can be harvesting like you are and not at least sampling some of that and hats off to you for holding ground for what you believe in more, family. Man your gonna get fukin high when you do though.Way to be all diplomatic about it. I'm a little scared to offer any help for a bit. Don't want to start any beef.
Been trimming this morning. I cut into a Larry OG girl. Damn she is a sexy thing. I'll put up some pics momentarily... watch this post!!!
You'll get it, always take extras and don't be afraid to try some different methods and document them. You're missing one very important part though. What are you PH adjusting your solution to?I am trying to clone again.
I never had a clone live before.
This time I am cloning flowering plants.
Lets see I used clonex gel on the cuttings that I cut at a 45* angle with a scalpel, and sliced a x into the bottom of stem and scraped the green off.
Put cuttings in cloning solution soaked rapid rooters in the humidity dome with a seedling mat underneath.
Did I miss any steps?
If I dont get it this time fuck it!!
I have smoked the banana and if its banana you will know it once you start curing in jars. It seriously smells and taste like banana peels but like rotten. lol. Its wild. The high is very nice and very strong. I am a long time smoker so I was still able to do shit no problem and was motivated but I was definitely stoned as hell. One of my many favorite strains without a doubt. If you have it keep it. If you have Larry OG keep it. The Larry is rare as well and if its legit its killer bud from what I have been told. Nice strains dude and well done!!!I am not a person to ask about genetics. I basically get clones of strains that people say gives good smoke. My buddy had larry og and banana og, so that's what I'm growing, lol. I do know that the banana is clone only and that it is very sought after. Apparently it has really high thc content. But I don't know... it looks pretty to me and I like the smoke I tried of my friends. sorry i don't know anymore.
Looks good, what strain u got there?hey bassman check out my new veg room : ) Tell me what you think.

Wow 6 weeks....lol. good thing this is in advance for next grow.bassman... I've tried to clone a billion times... and its never worked... until recently. Be very careful with the humidity dome. Its probably good for the first couple days, but after that it will accelerate the decay of your stems. The way I've got it to work is to cut, stick straight into a glass of water, give it indirect weaker light, wait a week or two, then place into coco plugs or whatever else... within a few days you'll have plenty of roots. First two pics are my current grow: 5 aurora indicas... 600w hps... 5 minutes ago... at 6 weeks. The last pic is my successful clones, growing on my deck, under the sun and a couple t5s (for another couple weeks)... 5 minutes ago... at about 3 weeks into veg. Also, i've heard cloning flowering plants is difficult and can take 6 weeks or so to clone and revert, but can be done. I took 6 clippings from my best plant (the first pick) 2 days ago. so, I too am trying to clone flowering plants for the first time as well.
the hydro store wanted to sell me one I think. I dont need it?why the heat mat?
I didnt ph the water....they came from outdoor plants. Do I need to ph? Maybe that is why They never take...lolYou'll get it, always take extras and don't be afraid to try some different methods and document them. You're missing one very important part though. What are you PH adjusting your solution to?
Oh ya, that's probably the most important part! I would say 6.3 solution for soil. If you're using rockwool soak them in 5.8. Once you get the clones in the cubes you can adjust the solution to 6.1-6.3. Foliar spray with 6.3 also as often as you can. As good ol' Al B Fuct says the fatter the stem the faster the vigor, I have seen the same with my cuttings. I'm sure others can add what works for them. I still struggle with them too but I've had better success lately. The biggest problem I have is their ability to take off upon rooting. I have all sorts, some take right off, some are slow and some just die. Lots of inconsistencies for me.Looks good, what strain u got there?

Hey Duchie have you PH tested or checked the ppm of your runoffs? Just wondering, that always helps me deduce what's going on in the root zone.Cof. Today is around 95 of flower. I think another week would have been ideal but the hermi-ing moved things up. Glad your enjoying it. It's good to hear what others think and not many others out there to compare this one to so...ya know. I still have two more coming, these one's are mine. Funny thing about these two plants and it ties in with a story DST was telling recently about a very yellow plant he has.
Some of you know I bred a male and female Jack Hammer and got a couple dozen seed from it. Two of two I planted turned out female and were vegging great. After putting them in 12/12 they were having some issues with nute burn or something, along with a couple of other plants. I took them out and placed them back in veg and nursed them. One came back real well and green and went back into flower but the other wasn't doing as well and was all yellow, like DST's. Anyway, the healthy one doubled in size under the HPS while the other got healthier but still remained yellowish. I put her back in flower and have been slowly upping her nutes. In the meantime, she has caught right up to the first, which flowered for about 2 weeks more, and her calyxes and buds are twice the size and she's still yellow. It'll be interesting to see where this goes. There's still many weeks to go.
I seriously don't know how you can use those strips. When my ph meter broke I got the strips and the drops, thought if I can't go digital I'll use two different cheap methods. Man... as much as the drops are a wild guessing game, the strips were impossible for me. Everything looked the same color to me, orange. Sometimes a little darker, sometimes a little lighter. No matter, more power to you if you can make sense of them. I just thought it was like a gag or something when I tried them, like really... I'm supposed to match this up with the little color things on the roller job.All I have for testing are these test strips... Again they're just strips and don't know how accurate they are.
Yeah dude those cuttings are hard to come by. My buddy has the Larry and another friend in Cali was supposed to get a pack of clones but the dude sketched out on him so it never happened. Soon enough though. It was some killer bud though still got the bag from it and it still smells just like there is still bud in it. lol You will love it either way.I seriously don't know how you can use those strips.

Hooray for harvest day! Looking nice over there. I wish mine were as easy to trim as yours. Jack hammer sounds nice. I think for my next grow I'm gonna try some different stuff. Some NY-47, a couple Dog's, and maybe some trinity rainbow purple. My hook up on the clones is low on the banana and larry clones at the moment.
And Shaggy... I get those banana's and Larry's from a friend. They are the real deal and he is all kinds of protective of them. I didn't realize it when he gave them to me, but he must think very highly of me for giving them to me. He has mothers I guess, he has too, but I've never heard about them, or seen them. I bet even in 10 years I'll never hear about them. Top secret shit, lol. Thanks 'hook up'.
