My first grow! Updated daily. 400 watt Ebb and Flow - White Berry

Just until some growth starts. I have a few clones that are taller (4-5") than the others (2-3") Hopefully they wind up a pretty even canopy in flower. I will supercrop or tie down any runners that get too tall.

I have room for 17 clones if I pack them at about 4/sq ft. I will likely wind up with about 12 on the first run. I do not want to overcrowd them. I have very low humidity so mold is not much of a concern so we will see.
 
Go away, Troll. Ignored for you!

Sorry everyone. Had to ignore a guy when he tried to bring a conflict from another thread in here. Carry on! :joint:
 
Day 45

Temps and RH remain stable at 70-82F, 40-60RH.

My clones (for real this time

) are looking good. I am being careful to not overwater them by using a scale. Over about 40Grams wet is too much! I hope to see roots in the next couple days on the one clone from the first pass. She is day 4, The rest are day 2.

I REALLY need to get my shite together and get the ventilation for the flower or I will be in a pinch. I don't think I can fit the humidifier in with the flood table and without it my current fan will let the temps climb to the low 90s.

Anyway... CLONES!

Steady as she goes! Just refilled the humidifier and checked the clones. Everyone looks happy! :hump:

Thanks! ON the plus side when i did my first cuttings I took only top stuff so in the end all it really cost me was 2 clones (tops) and 2 days. Could have been a lot worse. :mrgreen:
 
lookin doogie...how far along are the berries again???...ill post some poics of mine later check em out...u got your from paradise too right...feminized?...i think mine are about 6 weeks or so...maybe 5 weeks but there thriving since i re potted them...happy toki'n....doog where are you from canada or us?
 
They are almost 7 weeks from seed. Paradise Feminized. I confirmed female preflowers before cloning. I'm in the US, in the wonderfully forward thinking MMJ state of Colorado.
 
Lookin great man, Doesnt get much greener and healthier lookin then that
I was watchin a neighbors grow and didnt even know it<<<Colorado :grin:
 
Day 47

Moms were looking hungry so they got 1100PPM feeding last night and they are happy again. They are putting on new tops at a very fast pace. I will wind up taking more cuttings that I may not be able to use just to keep them coming for future rounds.

I got my 1st root strike today :hump: One of the Durbans is showing a tap root on the bottom of the cube. The very tips of the clones are begging to lighten, telling me that the plant is using energy to dig roots. :joint:

Pics tomorrow (and hopefully some baby ROOT PORN)

Be safe!
 
The clones? Yep just a damp RW cube on a heating pad under a CFL. No root hormone use or nutes in the water at all. I may give them about 200PPM solution in the next couple days but I read that N inhibits root grown.

I was planning on just getting the Flora Nova Bloom, 1 part as it is an exact match to the 2-part Lucas Formula (Micro and Bloom, no Grow required) but if I just got the 2-part I could use the bloom (no N) to give them a little something without fear. Decisions decisions. :lol:
 
I'm lucky they are still alive! :lol: Thanks for looking in on my grow, MJG

The best advice I can give is RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH. I am very prepared for my DRO table and have been for awhile but I was not as versed on soil growing so I made a few mistakes early that almost cost me big. I kinda put the cart before the horse with the hydro research I did thinking soil was a no-brainer. Oh well, experience is a good teacher too. :)

Np man, I should put a journal up for my grow but am weary about anything like that, dunno if I should even be on here at all but WTF right. but yeah research is the best thing u can do, I am constantly learning new things:weed:
 
Hi Everyone! 8-)

Sorry I have not posted in a couple of days. It has been a busy weekend. Lets see...where to begin:

I went to Dro store and got some nutes and some PH up/down along with the hoses for my table.

GH FloraNova Bloom - $16
GH PH up and Down - $14
Hoses - $3

MY damn humidifier died on my Friday night. That allowed my grow to hit 90F :cuss: It was a blessing in disguise though because the one I got to replace it has its own fan on it the blows cool air kind of like a swamp cooler so it replaces the box fan I was using for circ air :)

My moms were showing signs of severe deff and i discovered my soil PH was below 6. I flushed and fed with 1000PPM @ 6.5 and they are looking better now 2 days later.

I rinsed off all my higromite and I have just enough to fill my pots. I setup my table and ran it with tap water for testing. It fills in about 5 mins. I am toying with the idea of just filling the table with medium because it does not drain all the way. It leaves about 1/4" of water in the bottom. If I do that I will need more medium though. As you may know I have net pots as well so it won't be long before my roots are in the pool anyway. Kinda like a SWC. Decisions Decisions. :wall:

I need to figure that shit out soon because I have 3 clones that have struck bottom with roots. Day 7 on the clones and 3 have roots and all the rest are starting to root because I cannot tug them out of the cube. I think I should get 90-100% :bigjoint:

My clones do have some odd coloring on the shoots. All 3 that have roots showing have it though so I am not too worried. The clones are now getting 100PPM FNG @ ~5.8.


PICS BABY!

ROOTS!

MOMS - If you look clone you can see the Low PH damage. I will remove those leaves the next time I water. The pics was taken when the temp was a little high. Humidifier went dry. :(

CLONES - 3/14 so far. Stems are nice and ridgid.
