When is the best time to start next crop
Selective pollination.....and you cant' clone?
Might be a perfect opportunity to learn how to clone.
It is actually easy.
Get some rockwool cubes, soak them in PH adjusted water 6.0 for 24hrs.
Have some rooting hormone and a brand new razor.
Take a 5-6 inch shoot with at least one set of internodes and slice it off the branch at a 45degree angle.
Make a few little rough slits in the very bottom of the clipping.
Dip it in rooting hormone (Put some in the cap, don't dip the clipping in the container.)
Insert the clipping firmly into the cube.
Put under a dome of some sort, propogation dome, 2L pop bottle cut in half etc.
Mist the dome twice a day for the first 5 days, then gradually start removing trhe dome more and more.
18/6
7-10 days transplant.
(Or read the post in Stinkyattics signature, or the sticky in Basic Growing)
See, cloning shortens time required by at least three weeks. This can make a real difference in perpetual harvesting.
If your WW flowers in 6 weeks, and you want to veg for 4 weeks, then life cycle is 10 weeks.
Therefore if you want to be inserting veged clones when you are removing flowered plants, you should be clipping next batch of clones when the moms are going into flower.
Have fun. There really is no right way...whatever works for you.blink_inc Reviewed by blink_inc on . When is the best time to start next crop Greetings fellow growers, I am looking for an experianced person to give a little advice here. To start with my current crop is in week 3 of vegitive growth under 24/7 600w MH and doing beutifully, In the next week to week and a half I will be going to 12/12 under 600w HPS to start the flowering cycle. My question is when should I start the next crop to keep harvest times as close as possiable to each other. I only have the one light that is a digital ballast that takes both MH and HPS Rating: 5
