Dont mean to thread jack, here, brah, but I can help him. . .
If ya are able to cover yer plants w/black plastic fer 12 hrs to keep em in complete dark, ya can force flower outside. I rec putting the plastic on as late as possible, so that she gets the best sun hours.

Very nice and lucky but why do people when they clone cut the tips of the leafs?

'cause of transpiration....also it will exert its energy into making roots when you cut the fan leafs in half, in theory anyways....if you don't cut them, the tips will start to wilt though..

aloha kakahiaka!! well I was looking at my garden this morning and for all indoor growers who say outdoor growers got it easy don't know the half of it!!! My plants are getting ravaged by critters, my dogs keep eating my seedlings, and thats just the the short of the story!! hey, I grow indoors too so I'm not knocking anyone.....just putting things into perspective Its not like it can't be prevented, just a whole lot of maintenence and care have to be involved....and I can't be there 24/7 watching my garden..damn dogs supposed to be watching my garden not using it as a salad bar!!..anyways I took a morning pic....also, I took a pic. of something you might find funny..... One of my plants got FIMed ( fuck...I mssed )and it wasn't by me....hahaha....a critter did it!!!take a look....JAh

clear cups are the shit fuck the haters
i transfer into the clear cups to "pre veg"... once i can see the plant is very established (because you can see the root system!) I'll bump it into a bigger pot to finish vegging.
clear cups are da kine
