Non-auto clones producing pistols in veg.

On 12/20 I selected my clones and clipped the fans in half.
On 12/25 I clipped the clones and went strait into a DIY DWC/Dome cloner with plain ph adjusted water.
On 1/12 they were planted in 1 pint cups using strait FFOF.

I guess one could say these are third gen clones. My first grow was from seed and before they were moved into flower I cut clones. I cut these clones from those clones before I moved them into flower.

They're in a separate area, away from the flower area with their own light schedule.

What is your experience level? Third grow. First was great, second in flower looking better than the first and these little clone girls are gonna be my third.

Your Equipment:
.1) Type and wattage of lights. 2-17w, 2' fluoros
.2) Distance from tops? 1"
.3) Reflector type? Bare bulbs, utility light
.4) Is there a consistent fresh air supply? Yes
.5) Do you have an exhaust fan and a circulation fan? Yes
.6) What are the bulb wattages, kelvin ratings, and schedule? 17w, 6500k, 18/6

Your medium:
.7) Specific brand and type of soil? FF Ocean Floor
.8) Size of container? 1 pint cups
.9) Did you use peat pucks (or similar) to root clones or germinate seedlings? DWC/Dome

Your nutrients and water:
10) Source of water? Tap. What's it's ph before adjusting? 7.5-8
11) Method of checking water ph. pH pen
12) Method of adjusting water ph. pH down from hydro shop
13) Specific brand and N-P-K ratio for each bottle. List dosages (quantity per gallon) and current feeding schedule. N/A
14) How often are you watering between feedings, and how much per watering? I water when they need it and no nutes yet.
15) Any additives or tea's? (Superthrive, CalMag, molasses, Mother's Earth...) No
16) Are your ph levels stable, or do they fluctuate? Stable
17) What is your ingoing water's ph? ...your runoff ph? 6 in, 5.9-6.0 out
18) Do you foliar feed? If so, with what, how often, and at what time do you spray? No

Your growroom:
19) Indoors or outdoors? In
20) What size of closet, room or hut? 2'x2'x2'
21) What are the temps and humidity levels while lights are on? ...With lights off? Temp range 68-80 rh range 35-50
22) Have you seen signs of insects in the growroom? No

Your strain:
23) What strain are you growing? (Indica dominate or Sativa dom?) Sativa dom
24) From seeds or clones? Clone
25) Is this an autoflower strain? No

most clones will show the traits that they prone to earlier than from seed. the older the mother the older the clone the more hairs may be present. nothing to worry about.

Preflowers start showing when the plant is mature enough to reproduce, and a clone is as mature as the lady they came from.

As stated above, it's quite normal.

I actually had an accidental breeding experiment happen in vege! :o

I got a White Widow male from one of the 2 seeds I cracked (Nirvana Non Fem), and a buddy of mine wanted a clone,... so I took a clone as I flowered the male to collect pollen,..... then my buddy didn't pick him up for over a month!

Anyway, "HE" started popping (opening) pollen sacks while in vege,... and ALL of my mother plants are covered in pistils!!!!! :eek:


So far I've only found one seed, and it was on my Island Sweet Skunk mom......... So I guess I've got a "Sweet Island Widow" seed to see if it's a girl :D (pretty sure I just made that strain up,.... I might be wrong tho)

And I'm NOT a breeder,... nor do I REALLY want to,... I just don't want to have to buy seeds again for strains I already have. ;)

Thanks everyone.
