sorry the close uo isnt in focus
i apologise for the pics not loading quickly i was in a rush doing them
Hey Aaron, just checking to see how your clone is doing? Generally speaking it's rather hard to successfully clone from the flower stage, and looking at your pictures I'd say you're not in flower mode yet so the clone should do just fine. Unfortunately to make the plant flower you need to give it 12 hrs straight of uninterupted darkness (less then the light you'd get from a full moon) for a number of days. This would be a bit of a bitch outdoors, but if you want to force it into flower early you have to figure out a way to do it. But yeah, looking at the pics I'd bet it's still in veg mode. Doesn't really matter though, it's now mid august so as the days get shorter the plant will definately flower. Hopefully I'm wrong and it's already a few weeks into flower, but even if not you'll hopefully get a harvest by the end of October.
Oh, and gatorade is mostly water with a bit of sugar thrown in. Plants would eat that up (and sugar is very good during the flower stage :)). Fizzy watter helps supposedly by getting oxygen to the roots.
Thats a good thing to know about the Gatorade, my plants LOVE IT!, in just 2 months I went from ugly twigs to a beautiful 6 ft plants in blooming stage. Althogn my male plant liked it too and well needless to say after taking some pollen I had to kill it, but I have kept up with Gatorade weekly and who knows what will become of it right???

the 12 hour light is difficult to actually do because theres always the odd few days im not around to put in dark shed wich would stress the plant so i think im going to let nature take its cause and be patient
im not sure if its normal or not but my plant has a little growth at a few of the nodes i dont think there hermies they dont resemble male sacs so !
a few hairs have grown out of them
is it a sign of it starting to bud or nothing uncommon
(sorry this is my first plant )
and the pic aint great cams not good at close ups
It's carbon dioxide in the Gatorade, too. Generally if a gas is coming off your drink and you're not swigging from a bottle of meths, that gas will be carbon dioxide. So you'll be getting all the effects of the fizzy drink, without the price. Nice. :cool:Quote:
