So today(6/24) is the day I should have started Crop 5, but I already finished it last night. Starting Friday, I began cloning and pruning the 6 plants going in to Crop 5, then I fed them some GO Bloom Boost, GO Biothrive Bud, and some B52 (Advanced Nutes) and tossed em into the tent. The last one was the White Lightning, which went in last night around 9. I think I will still consider today their start date for many reasons, mostly it is looking like there will be a small gap in the start date for Crop 6 because I just started them last week, so I may need to let them veg for an extra week or two at the end of it. Here are some flicks...
Tools of the trade. After cutting the cuttings, I put them in a solution of tap water and about 1/10th Clonex Rooting gel. I usually just put them right in the gel container but I had too many and the gel container is almost gone...

After about 5 minutes or so in there, I wash my hands really good and load em into the cloner...

I like having the color coded neoprene, it makes it easy to know what is what at a glance.
Here is the PCK single stalk after taking 11 more clones and before putting her in the tent:
Here are the two weird pheno skunks I removed... chopped em up and threw em on the rack for "garbage" hash materials. Shit was dank as hell, smelled like cotton candy.
Here is the Apollo 13 and G13 next to eachother under the 600w on the left. Crop 4 is to the right of that.
In front on the bottom on the right: Juicy Fruit and Skunk No. 1 (The good Pheno). The next pic is a better shot of the skunk I guess...
Too hard to lower my lights, so I just sat the planters and airpots on top of 4 gal tall buckets...
Avg temp inside the tent with 2200 watts HPS's: 83. I can get it lower with the A/C, but then the Veg tent gets down to like 68 - 72
All the plants are in and all the cuttings from them are in. There are 83 cuttings from those 6 plants...

From L-R: PCK Purple Pheno (PPC), Juicy Fruit, Skunk No. 1, Apollo 13, G13, White Lightning... Colors divide them, WL I ran out of grey and used blue for the last couple.
