what do yall think?( pics)

yeah aaron im going to get some good seeds once i get a system down that i know i can grow with. i hate to waste good seeds on a bad plan. if this crop does ok ill prolly get some highend seeds, but im still learning. but if this crop lives and does well ill know the setup i have works. then ive got to work out the buggs ive got with cloning.
do you have any advice on seeds??? like where to get them or what kind would work well in my setup? i smoked some purple haze a while back and really liked it, but i mostly smoke crap ppl grow in fields so my idea of good pot is alil off. with the pot i get most of the time i smoke 2 bowls in a row just to get lite headed. the purple haze i had like 2 hits and was well on my way to happyland. ive tried white widow a time or 2 but i dont like that "become a part of the couch" feeling. i like the giggely lite high more. i like any1 else want the most bang for my buck. i smoke about 1 oz a week of crap. and 1/4oz of haze lasted 1 week. so i know its well worth it to get good seeds n all. and hopefully that will be my next crop.

I had good luck with Nirvana seeds arriving in good time and they worked fine for as long as I had them. Great prices too!

As far as what would work well.. its always a blend of what you want and what will work well. Sativa strains produce that heady high (vice couch lock which im not a fan of either). Sativa are not the best for indoors though.. but since I wanted a sativa high I dealt with them. You just need to be ready to restrain tall ass plants.. Im almost sure the ones you are growing now are Sativa.

I found the following couple sites VERY helpful for strain selection:

One thing you may want to consider is feminizing up some of your own seeds too if you want to do a field grow. Its pretty easy sounding to make fem seeds.. I have the stuff to do it now. Let me know if you are interested in how to do that because Id love to see if it really works.. and I can grow experiment vicariously through you! haha

On cloning.. you MUST own anti wilt spray!!! It is a godsend!! Rockwool and cloning gel (rooting compound) are damn good too. You will love that stuff when you get it..

i checked out those links you gave me and they are a big help. i havent had time to look at them all yet but im thinking maybe a few sweet toothes, maybe a 4-way or two, and blue widow. thats just a staring point ill pick one or two to start with later.

and about the fem seeds,,, ill try just about anything once. so sure lay it on me man. ive got some "wild" plants going now.( 20 to be exact) they range from 4' to around 7'. thats just a ballpark. i dont like checking in on them to much. if you dont think its to late in the grow or anything ill try some experiments on a few of them. they are just bag seeds too.
ive got 1 monster plant its not all that tall, but its huge. its atleast 4' maybe 5' cross at the bottem. its a freak lol some1 will prolly find it before its ready. its close to a river that ppl ride ATVs in all the time.
a few of my clones are starting to look green "i think". might just be wishful thinking. out of the 15 clones it looks to me like 5 are starting to come back. i mist them 2 times a day. once before the lights come on with really weak nutes, and once after the lights have been off for about 2 hours with reg water. i used the rooting powder on them before i planted them, so ima cross my fingers anyway.

GIBBERELLIC ACID TREATMENT: Select your favorite female plant and spray it from approx. two feet away (first under the leaves, then on top). This must be done 2 weeks before the plant is put into the flowering light cycle, thus the need to start with female seeds/clones. DO NOT SMOKE BUD TREATED WITH GIBBERELLIC ACID! Spray the plant again after 2 weeks have passed, and place it under 12/12 lighting. This plant will "hermie" and pollinate itself and other females present. It will not produce as much pollen as a pure male, thus less seeds. However, these seeds will be 100% female

So the G.A. has to be sprayed on before flowering..

I have a hookup for the acid too.. written down some where. If your interested I will dig it up. I think its only like $10 for a mix it up yourself packet thats more than enough to do a plant.

sounds cool arron, im kinda scared most of my plants will turn out female that are outside anyway. this heat is baaaad this year. but who knows. i havent started a all female crop yet, but when i do ill sure try that. is there some reason you cant do that on an inside plant? if not i might pull a few of mine out and make them flower soon just to see the females, then put them back into veg. after that i could try that stuff.

i think you want to do it on a fem clone.. and the only reason to keep it away from the others is that the pollen will spread like mad.

i just checked in on my clones and i was shocked. ive got 8 outa 15 starting to grow new leaves and turn really green. i thought they were all dead but they are still kickin. i gave them really weak nutes 3 days ago, and they seem to like it alot. 1 was alomost all yellow and wilting bad, just laid over on its side. now its got 2 new leaves and 2 starts. its still laying over but its growing anyway. the other plants are getting big. i was bored today so i was missing with them. ive got 1 thats 9" tall and 13" wide. lol there isnt 1/4" that doesnt have nodes.
the only thing ive realy done much different in this grow from the last 1 was the CO2. im useing the same nutes mixxed the same, the same kinda dirt, im useing less lights. i had 10 4' floros, now im just useing 8. my last crop was tall and weak.they got like 12" and just had maybe 6 leaves. this crop is around 8" to 12" and has to many leaves to count. so i guess that CO2 is the cats ass when your growing.
if anything i wouldve bet money my first crop wouldve looked better than this 1, just cuz i had 1 plant per pot. this crop ive got 9 in a plastic toat thats 20"lX16"wX10"d.(almost like a SOG) i wasnt planing on them looking this good or i wouldve used 1 plant per pot. im hopeing thats going to be big enough for them to flower in too. i might have to put them in bigger pots.
i went and bought a freaking ton of worms today and got 6 coolers full of a mix of cow poo/dirt/newpaper total 25.00. i spent the biggest part of the day mixxing that crap up. i put around 75 worms in each cooler and put them under my house were it stays cool. next crop will have worm castings now. if they work 1/2 as well as ppl says it does ill be happy.have you ever used castings ?
ima put my plants into flowering this weekend by then they should all be atleast 1' tall. do you think i could put the clones into flowering to? i kinda thinking if i do i might stress them into hermies. but i really dont know.

Clones need legs.. or roots before flowering.. but you might get away with vegging them for a week or two when the others are flowering and then putting the clones in with the seedlings. Clones assume the age of the mother plant.. thats a big concept and the reason why they have different nutrent reqs than seedlings. They will look and act different.

CO2 is the cats ass in all I have seen.. mostly with veggies though.. as I have the same plants outside in the TX sun and then inside under floros and "enhanced" CO2.. the inside plants are bigger than the outside ones!

The "enhanced" part is me and my roomate breathing all the time.. inside CO2 is steady at 1800ppm (by digital CO2 analyzer read daily) and probably will stay up as long as this heat keeps us from opening windows and stuff. Cant beat free! Except that I bought all the equipment just to find out CO2 levels were already nearly at toxic levels to the plants without any addition.

I have never really done the soil thing.. not for anything that serious.. I mean ive dropped seeds in soil but I learned all I know thru hydro.. A VERY worthy investment for those who like to tinker with the forbidden arts.. but no small investment either.. you will spend over a thousand of dollars to make a good hydro garden.. when you would only spend a couple hundred to do the same in dirt.

If those clones have a good set of roots by the weekend you may concider flowering.. I like to experiment so I might take one clone and flower it along with the others and hold the others back for a bit.. you get to see what happens and not risk everything.

hey aaron, hows it goin? i just bought a buncha junk from a friend and thought id see what ya think. i got some superthirive, maxicrop(liquified seaweed), some fert 38/10/10 and some 10/52/10, 40 lbs of wormcastings, and a few more floros. im going to start flowering tomorrow. any advice on the nutes.???
i think i might flower my clones too. they are kickin ass in the last few days.(thanks to you) i upped the nutes on them and they are looking really good. i just about doubled the 38/10/10 fert from the other plants. theyve got plenty of new really green leaves, at least 8 new leaves and 4 nodes. so im figuring they have to have roots good enough to flower now.i flushed my seedlings last night and gave them some wormcasting tea, but no nutes.
ima post some pics. tonight of the clones and of my seedlings. they are all pretty close to the same hight. my seedlings are way stockier than the clones, but with the new growth i think theyll be ok. i have 16 4' 40 watt floros now, but im only useing 8 right now. 4 on the top and 2 on each side. i have room to put 12 on top and 12 on each side. do you think i can flower with 16? i can get more if i need to. ill just be flowering the 2 boxes in the pics ill post.
just any advice you might have would help. you know im learning as i go and mistakes are going to happen, but id really like to keep them to a minimum if at all possible.

1 is clones
2 is seedlings
3 is seedlings
4 is seedlings
5 is seedlings

heres a few more of the clones. 1 1/2 weeks of veg. what do ya think,,, to flower or not to flower????
