Is that a mother plant in first pic lower lft?Very nice and all healthy looking plants,Gj also is that a smart pot and what size do you use for your mothers?
it's a mother to some of those clones yah. but it's not really a mother, it's gettin flowered, i have a pic of it before flowering i'll post it's perrty. white castle - whitewidowxice

thanks for the compliments! i'm really boned if i don't do well on this crop and i know there might be a few hermies from a sour dieselxog kush plant that i found out was a hermie when my boy flowered some of the clones i gave him, problem is, i don't know which plant it was! hehe too much smoking lol. it will only be a few out of the hundred though so i'm not worried about loss, just the health of my plants, i need a big harvest!

edit - i forgot to answer the rest of the question lol. i just use regular old bags. i might switch to different containers after this harvest when i have some loot, might experiment with doing one tray sog but using some kind of alternative system, i love soil but given my location its a bit of a pain. i don't usually go bigger than 5 gallons because i don't tend to keep mothers for more than a grow, i keep their clones for two grows and either breed with it and make my own seeds or just buy new fem seeds. but i might keep a couple mothers around for a few grows so i might need to do something bigger, we'll see.

here's a few pics from right before flower. it's gonna be a sea of green back there by the end! the young ones in the front i purposely placed further from the light so they'd stretch some, when i turn the lights back on for flower - i'm in a 36 hour shutdown - they'll be the appropriate distance. i included some pics of the seedlings of mothers to come as well. get ready for the fun part, it's flower time!

Sounds good. Any Pics?

I like running many small plants. Best way to get really dense quality nugs. IMO
Yes, that's true, but for me, tending to 50+ plants (in one gallon pots) required way too much time.

Best advice I can offer is this: if you have a bunch of "free seeds" (of unknown genetics) or a bunch of seeds that invariable pop up in every gro (because of unnoticed hermie accidental pollination or whatever) or even bag seeds, might as well plant 50 of them and see what happens. Last year I had ten freebies from Nirvana - two of them turned out to be killer indica females (plus 4 males plus 4 weird sativa phenos that would not flower).

Damit,Boy thats doing WERK,Tied down much?I can only imagine how much time to do that,and to have to worry about Flowering,id have a breakdown.
 
Awesome stuff man! I plan on running the same pots next go around. It's been like 2 yrs since my last grow I got a unknow strain, not enough clones so I decided to go 16 in 3gal bags lst'd this time and see how they grow first before determining plant count. I was thinking 25-30 under 600w didn't know if that maybe too many so I'm stoked to see how yours turn out.
