just tryin to hold on like ah hubcap in the fast lane
so while reading hightimes in the bathroom i figured out what im going to do

so in the back of hightimes it has a month by month depending on what month the issue is a grow checklist of sorts inside and outdoor and feburary is when you harden off/plant outside for spring harvest so i got a plan to stick a buncha these bitchs outside this month
 
some clones that i took that rooted already i'm getting 100% success rate on the clones so far and when i score the sides on the bottom inch of stem right before dipping in cloning gel there taking 30% shorter time to root with a bunch more roots shooting everywhere so im def scoring the sides from now on all i do is lightly run the sharp edge of sterle scissors down the stem lightly pressing to peel back a lil flesh

Damn Mike, well you're going to have a nice harvest now aren't you...
i hope so i start flowering tomorrow i'm keeping one of each strain for a mother and flowering all the rest of the clones and the seedlings ima do a big ass micro grow ill take pics tomorrow so everyone can see what it looks like but basically this is the plan:...

flower everything in solo cups i'll start flowering clones between 4-7 inches normally have prob 100 plants in flower room i'm mainly a seed guy but i gotta go clones for this purpose, so 50 clones a month in and out im hoping for abour a half per plant but expecting about 3grams per plant that would gimme 150 grams (5.3 oz) per month to smoke and if by some miracle i can get a half per plant it would gimme more than a pound per month (25 oz)
 
just an update/reminder of the strains being grown kushage,sweet moham ram, purple mist, chem dogg, grand daddy kush, cacey jones,mowee wowee,s77, and jungle fever
 
nice grow man. go big or go home huh. nice work. makes me want to move back home.

i also think you would get considerably more if you let them get about 10 inches and then flower them. i would ditch the party cups but it would be cool as hell to see your big as micro grow.

i got the idea from this web site when reading around the web here is the basic break down

im using real lights thou complete spectrum like a big ass version of this kinda but with 100+ plants perpetual harvest
64w CFL Micro-Growing Marijuana Yielded
42g per 64w = 0.65g per watt



This is the perfect small setup for a first time medical
marijuana grower-patient, because it is cheap to
construct and is almost idiot proof due to the wick
method. All items can be bought for under a hundred
dollars




The Grow Box
I used a stereo box for my grow room, measuring 3 ft high 18 inches wide and 18 inches deep. It fits in the closet but doesn't use up all the space. If you are stealthy enough and run wires correctly no one will even be able to tell that its anything but a box. I put my lights on a ballast and hung them from the inside of my box. I put the ballast on a rope so I could lower and raise the lights as necessary. I covered the inside of the box in white stickers to reflect the light. I am sure paint could be used or even Mylar but i used stickers and it seemed to work fine for me. Occasionally some of the stickers would yellow, I just put new ones over the yellowing ones and problem solved.

The lights
Buy the lights at Wal-Mart because if they happen to go out they will exchange them for free. Keep the package the bulbs come in to make it easier to exchange. I used "light of america" brand "white" energy savers the twisted ones that use 32 watts and put out as much light as a 150 watt bulb. I am uncertain of the color "soft white or what color" [probably 'soft white' 2,700k - bg] but they are at Wal-Mart and you cant miss them. the packaging is yellow and blue. Any of the higher watt bulbs would suffice, but make sure they put out at least 2000 lumens, more would be preferable but could make the grow space far to hot. These lights cost between 6 and 7 dollars each at Wal-Mart. Keep lights no more than 5 inches away from top of plants but no less than 2 inches to assure good plant growth and prevent burning.

The soil and 'wick' watering system
For soil I used equal parts miracle grow potting soil, perlite, and vermculite "use caution when handling vermiculite". I used small 3 inch pots and took a 3/8 diameter rope about ten to 12 inches long, tied a knot in the middle of the rope and dropped the knot end into an empty pot making sure that the rope goes through the hole in the bottom of the pot to hang into the nutrient solution. The knot keeps the rope inside of the pot without slipping out of it, then I fill my pot with soil mix as stated above and I fill slowly curling the remaining rope around and up the pot so it keeps as much of the soil moist as possible.



The method
For the first three or four weeks I just gathered clones. I put my lights on 24/0 for a week to get my clones healthy. Starting with roughly 4 inch clones the one week only gave me an additional inch or two. I then went to flowering which took about 9 weeks to reach perfection. Covered in crystals and smelled very skunky. Plants finished at between 12 and 18 inches tall.

Do not veg for more than 3 weeks because you will run out of room in your box and the roots will be to large for the pot. this is only effective if you go two weeks veg to stabilize the clones then straight to 12/12 for flowering. Run lights at night to help with temp and use the days for your dark period. If possible leave door to the box open so it stays even cooler but only when lights are on.

The strain was probably from bag seed but i am uncertain. The flower to leaf ratio wasn't as good as I would have liked. I received a clone but I would assume it was an indica sativa mix due to leaf traits and the high produced. My plants were set in the box like this -

1 2
-3-
4 5

Plant #3 was my biggest producer with roughly 14 grams, the other 4 each produced about 7 grams each. Lights were hung so plants 1 and 4 got one light and plants 2 and 5 got one light. this meant 3 was lit from both sides which is why it produced the most. It was also my tallest and highest quality bud, all were good but 3 was exceptional.
 
here the pics of the moms the flower room the clone the whole setup you can see how its gonna work now :bigjoint:bongsmilie:grin:
