I checked tonite and out of the closet with me lifting the cling wrap up to put the meter in there they were about 80 degrees and 75% humidity. I had some stuff to do w/ Elizabeth so I stuck the clone box back under the light w meter inside and when I was done she was running 81-82 degrees and just under 100% humidity...I know Ive admitted to being an over mister but I promise I only misted her this morning and before that was last night before bed and just now about 13 hours later......is my humidity way high? should I lift a corner in my tropics box? they still look good just curious??

I like to lift up Elizabeths big fan leaves and stack them together then lift them up in some way so that the lower actual branches can get light and get to the screen and Im happy to say that they are all about 3-4 inches away and the way beth grows they will all hit the screen next weekend!!! So anyhoo back to the fan leaves when i do this the leaves are cool w/ it but I always manage to tear a leaf here in there when i tie it up in whatever way...the tears dont hurt her but they hurt me so the other day I decided next time I would use gauze and medical tape....so I did that to the last 3 fan leaves that were blocking my branches light...I'll take pics soon but basically I uses a small section of gauze from my first aid kit to wrap around the leaves that were stacked then the medical tape taped to the gauze and up to the screen it worked fabulous and I didnt tear a single leaf!!!! lol

that was not to bad.

the clones should do fine in that environment. humidity is key. i try not to mist to much after the first few days. misting i think slows down the rooting of the clone. (misting encourages the cutting to grow and not root). if you can take a dropper full of water to each puck daily if needed for keeping moist.

i also use FF nutes, so if i can be any help let me know. you will find what your plant likes and not what the schedule says. cant wait for new updates.

:peace:

Not to much new is going on....Elizabeth is growing well!!! She got her first bend into the screen yesterday...this morning the bent part which is also her top part was all trying to point up towards the sky....

SCROG GROWERS PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS: the piece that I tied down is long enough to go under the screen but its my top that I fimmed a week or so ago so Im want to know is it okay to leave it how it is above the screen in the light then dip it under the next row when the head will make it to the next screen row or should I go ahead and make it go face down now?? the last picture shows it pointed down into the screen....

The babies are doing really good......they are starting to yellow a bit to me which I know is normal and Im taking as a good sign that they are beginning their rooting process!!!!

oh yeah as you can see from the pics I added in some homemade co2 this weekend (thats what the bottles in the pot are)....another fun science project...I used the boil the water add sugar cool, then add yeast fill bottles half full then release lids....I placed in side of plant due to the weight and density of co2. Some say shake others dont so of course I shake my bottles to make bubbles go crazy then release the lid again...last night before bed the bottles didnt have much bubble left so I will bump the yeast qty and make'em bubble again. She has some pretty dramatic growth most of the side branches that I thought would get to the screen by next weekend are within like 2 inches now....yea!!

Nutes are running the same with r/o in 1/2 gallon pitcher w:
1/2 teaspoon of FF Grow Big
1/2 teaspoon of Liquid Karma
2 tablespoons of FF Big Bloom
My ph is always pretty perfect in the 6.2-6.6 range

Water/feed every other day in the day in between shes been gettin a lil thirsty so I have been give her a glass of water at night in between. Tomorrow I plan to do a good hearty flush on her I did one about 4 feedings ago not hearty but Im kinda following the feed 4x then flush then feed idea....Oh yeah and where I took clones from last week she has new growth coming around nearly every cut I made....toooo cute!!! to bad I cant wait so those will be clones too!!!

By my calculations if the side branches hit the screen this week and do a bend within the week then Im about 2 weeks from flower. My screen isnt huge so a few bends on all of the branches is what I going for that should give my 50% on a small screen then flower should fill it in. This should fall in line with my hopes that at least one of my clones will root this week and then I will immediately force it to verify that the next month or so is going to be worth it and that Beth is a for sure a girl!!


Pic 1= from behind the bend
pic 2= place where i fim'd and no magic branches are coming from
pic 3= DYI co2 bottle and all fan leaves or solar panels stacked and tied up with gauze
pic 4= first bend
pic 5= top down

I just wanted to warn you about the lights you have. Back when i first tried growing I had one like yours with a shitty bulb I got from the hardwhare store, anyhow the clamp part came lose and it landed bulb down and it didnt break it just keept glowing away and burned a huge hole through the carpet the padding and then even chared its way halfway through the sub floor I came home to a huge mess and started dumping water on the floor as I didnt know if it was on fire underneith the floor. I just had some boxes over the spot when the landlord came to inspect when I moved he didnt see it till after i moved so....just be carefull with them. Dont be like me and almost burn down an entire apartment bulding.

things are looking and sounding good !! i love this pic.. looks like she just got out of surgery and now has a yeast infection...:spew:j/k. if you have not you can make small holes in the lids to help slow down the release of co2, just a thought.
and the one were you are helping her show her goods...:hump: how are the clones and the pink box...i mean in the pink box ??

with the training for the screen i cant be much help just hope the sides catch up from the fim in time. i grow more sog..im lazy and like to clone a lot.

:peace:looks good pink !!
