Like the title says I have a few pictures of my ladies coming along. Also a picture of the seedlings that will be grown out for clones.
Very nice, can you give me some tips on what you did with your mothers? I have a bunch of seedlings that are still young but I plan on taking cuttings and flowering them to find what I want to keep. Did you use the original as mothers or the cuttings? I plan on using the cuttings as mothers as the seedlings will be bigger of course. thanks Great job, looking healthy.
your plants look amazing what are you using in that hydro setup for the mothers as a medium it kinda looks like corn pops or pebbles and hiow well is it working for you?
Up until this point I have been growing from seed. Those three seedlings will be vegged and cloned then I will flower the clones for sex. Once I determine which are female they will remain in their own veg space for cloning. I plan on using a modified bubble bucket setup for the mothers with a remote res that is easy to monitor. They are about 4 weeks into flower and I expect I have another 4-6 weeks to go. These plants are Cali Skunk which is a strong sativa and has a long flowering period. The seedlings are Northern Lights #5 x Black Pearl. The medium I am using for both the seedlings and flowering plants is a house plant pebble/rock mix that is CHEAP. Within the plastic cups, under the rocks, is the rockwool that I start all the plants in. The plastic cups are sliced up like netpots. I used to use hydroton but it is more expensive (need to ship it) so I started using these house plant rocks last grow. Works very well for supporting the plants, allowing root growth and preventing any mold or fungus from growing on the rockwool. I am using a 400 Watt HPS, 4 x 4ft floro tubes and then 6 CFLs in assorted wattages. Once I pull the flowering plants I will be re-designing my hydro setup and will post pictures as I build.
