New and Improved: Featuring Sour Northern Lights x Nevilles Haze

Good luck with the clones.
I re-read Stinky's cloning guide, she mentioned flipping the RR upside down, and taking a razor and slicing a vertical cut in them, then sticking the clones in them, I guess it keeps the RR more tightly against the whole stem. I am going to try that next go around, good luck with yours.
I think one problem I had as well, I kept the RR too moist, I messed with them too much, I loved them all to death. I think you got a good idea, set them and forget them. Less is more.:jointsmile:

I did that last time and they weren't as snug as I would've liked.

Instead I just used the hole this time. They were a little bit so I pushed a little harder. If you push a little harder (when you reach resistance after inserting into the rapid rooter) you will actually start to drill the stem in between the fibers of the rapid rooter itself and it is VERY snug. I pulled out a clone I did this too and the stem was not damaged and the end of the cutting was still a sharp 45 degree cut like I had made it.

For the stems that weren't quite thick enough to do that with.. I went ahead and flipped it upside down.. got a tooth pick and predrilled a hole. Then I forced the plants through that.

That seemed to work really well also.

definitely.

I don't think I kept the RR's that moist (felt like a wrung out sponge most of the time). I think did mess with them too much. I would pick them up and look at them for signs of roots which probably disturbed the plants and made it harder for them to root.

We have a cold front that came in last night so I have them on a seedling heating pat right now (made by hydrofarm) but beyond that I am not going to touch them until december 5th; beyond misting them that is.

Day 47 (Week 6.5 or so)

Watered all the plants today except 2 of the smaller ones. Decided to take some pics of all the plants by themselves.. aka some bud porn.

They aren't that fat yet but they'll be getting there soon hopefully.

I estimate there to be about 4 weeks left or so. I will be picking up a jewlers loupe next week. Hopefully they start fattening up in the next few weeks. I will probably look to stop feeding nutes during the last 10 days of the grow and will begin a thorough flushing.

Hey wow those look grrreat!:thumbsup:

Damn D!!! Lookin sexy yo...lol
