Oh hey there!

I would love scrutiny and advice from experts as to what i'm doing right and where i'm straying off.

Follow this link to see my first set up at about 3.5 weeks:
https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/blog10261-aero-nft-cfl-grow.html

I'm now using:
4 x 45W (200 equivalent, 3000 lumen each) & 2 x 23W (100 equivalent, 1600 lumen each) CFLs
"general purpose-mild" concentration of GH nutes. SEE LINK FOR DETAILS AND PICS

Questions:
1. How am I doing?!?!
2. Do you think with my ppm i should be going lighter on the nutes? (using GH 3 part)
3. I want to clone them for later but can i sex them and then put them outside to veg?
4. Why do white people love Wayne Brady?
5. Why do i have browning root tips?
6.Does the plant with its nodes far apart appear to be male?

Comments appreciated!:joint:

1. Looking great! If their green and standing, you are doing good.
2.Adjust accordingly. The leaves will let you know. When the tips start yellowing, back off a hair and that should suffice.
3.Yes
4.Because he makes Bryant Gumble look like Malcom X.
5.Tips, according to the pics, look good. But, could depend on many factors. Strain, PH, water not properly airrated.
6.Too early to tell, normally 2 weeks into flowering is a surefire way to sex them.

Still new at the indoor thing, but got outdoor down!!

ROOT EXPLOSION!!!

After the CLF superlight was set up and i got my ph and nutrient concetration down, the roots exploded:

For comparison, here are the roots of the same plant 2 days before, when the pH was fluctuating and my light was weak:

I'm pretty amazed about the difference in the height of the plants too (before and after, respectfully) a difference of 4 days:

So this is obviously awesome. I've started 12/12 and have a beauty new timer for my feeding cycles. It sprays the roots for 10 minutes every hour and every 2 hours at night. I also added a fan and I think that accelerated growth as well.
New timer i got, thought I should tell everyone about it since it's made my life really easy:

And some more eye candy:

Expert advice needed: how many clones could I get off a girl this size? like optimal cloning for most plants. Expert advice only, thank you ( not like I don't enjoy a response such as: "i don't know, but..." haha ok) thanks!!! Going to get some herb! Island Honey to be exact.
