Thanks! Hopefully, I'll be able to upgrade all my lights within the next three or four weeks, but it'll be a minute before the LS rolls around again. Got The Church and Cheese lined up for the next grow, might throw something else in there as well - still thinking on it. I'm kinda torn between Northern Lights, and Chronic - any opinions on those two guys?

NL and Chronic are VERY common commercial strains. If you've bough sensi street weed in the last 20 years you've smoked em both. Chronic is C1 (bigbud) genetics. Both are very easy to grow. Big piney colas.

Which one would you say is a better smoke? Or are they both equally good?

Reached the end of week five, no problems. The Lemon Skunk have grown nicely this week, and I'm wondering how much is attributable to the Cal-Mag Plus. They do appear to appreciate it! I love how bushy this strain is.
The White grow is also filling out now, but it's about time for that to start anyway, so who can say? I think the Cal-Mag Plus is definately going to stay on my feeding schedule though. I caught a few pics before lights on this week, hard to get closeups though, because of the flash. I tried the sunglasses trick with that camera, and it didn't work - the lenses blocked the light sensor enough that it wanted a flash. Maybe I'll try it with my cellphone camera next time. I can hardly believe it's only two weeks until planting time again!:leaf:

looks amazing DE .....rob
Thanks! I'm pretty excited - I'll be getting new lights in a couple of weeks, I'm getting four 600w HPS, and a couple of MH bulbs for the 400's. I may delay flowering the Lemon Skunk by a week or two, just to get the new lights up and running. That will also put off the next planting - but that's ok, I'd rather they get the light they deserve, and be a couple weeks behind.:leaf:

Good on you mate, for upping the lighting.. I was planning on removing my 1000watt and replacing it with 2x600 but I reckon for the winter I'll just get another 1000watt and throw it in there... See what happens...I am currently growing under 1400watts, so more power (hahahaha) to you....:clap:

Alright guys, I had to try my hand at cloning. First time ever, so I don't know if they'll make it! Took ten clippings off of the Lemon Skunk girls. Made a cloner - put an under tank reptile heater underneath a ten gallon aquarium. Filled with 2"-3" of soil, buried clones (inserted into peat plugs after scraped and dipped in rooting powder) about halfway into soil, for warmth and moisture. Misted heavily. Duct taped a piece of window plastic across the top, leaving about two inches on each end for air flow. Put the whole thing under the CFL rack. Did I miss anythign guys?

This is kind of a practice run, so if it doesn't work, no big deal. If they root, I'll just throw them in with the other LS in a couple weeks, waste not want not right? But I wanna try and get this down before growing a more expensive strain, like Chronic. How many generations can you clone for? Say if I don't keep a mother, but take clones from each generation before flowering - how many times can I do this?

Wish me luck!

I asked the same question, but you can keep taking cuttings of each generation and it will not affect the strain... I thought it was kind of like making a copy of a copy of a copy and so on, but this isn't the case.. I have been assured by a vet grower on this site...

So keep going, its just a lot more work and the timing has to be better, so you don't have clones sitting around waiting for your room... If you have mothers you can take them whenever you want, you don't have to time it with when you turn down your lights, and then you could have your clones sitting around for up to eight weeks...Unless you have another room they can go into...

I am aiming for four different strains in the one mother tent.... Just so I can pick and choose what I want to smoke....I have grown them from seeds so it's taking some time... Hope this helps... Just my two cents...:-)

Also I didn't give my clones any fresh air, just 100% humidity, they root faster that way, they really don't mind the heat, think of a greenhouse....

Hey laceygirl, thanks for the info. Soon as I get my new lights, my veg room will be where my current flower room is, and my flower room will move to a spare bedroom. So I'll have space for clones in the veg room. About how long would you say it takes to get the little suckers ready to be under an HID light? I was guesstimating roughly two weeks, accurate or no? What I'm gonna be doing, is taking clones from a grow at five weeks, having them under the CFL's while that grow finishes vegging to seven or eight weeks. Sound about right?
