another grow now with KALI MIST & friends

[zebulon]

Hey m8.....don't stop updating your thread, i really like your logs, your previous one was gr8 too...just because you don't get so many replays doesn't mean people don't care...i think if there is only one people that has learned something, or liked your thread, it was worth to make this log...keep it up...:thumbsup:

thanks guys I may have jumped the gun a lil with my log and all. Ill still update for you guys. just lately homelife is hectic and getting the best of me (kicked out sisters BF). I admit I totally came off as blaming the boards which was wrong but it was just one of those days, ya know what i mean. But i will say I might stop this log and start a new one when my cab is all finished and ready to produce.

thanks again for the encouragement Shov, JG, and Zeb. I forgot others might be learning from me and Id hate to stop help spreading the growth through the community over pety home issues.

on a side note my kalli mist 1 has shown FEMALE preflowers. so now i have 2 females and i took a cutting from each the other day. ill post a real grow update later for you guys.

So after better inspection I found out that I have all females with one left to show preflowers. I havent changed my light schedule still on 18/6 so after my clones (crosses fingers) take root i can start flowering again :jointsmile:. I took 4 cuttings a couple days ago and placed them in my newly made bubble cloner and box. they re looking good so far and no yellowing yet. The separate clone is from kalimist 1 taken on the 13th and ready for transplant. It was originally the bottom branch that i cut off since it was so small. Used rockwool i cut smaller with a bit of perlite and it worked to my amazement. roots were visible 7 days after cut was made.

preparation will begin soon for the new cab. I already cleared out my area just need to do a lil more organizing before construction. also after looking over my design i realized i need about 48 more feet of 1" x 1" for my framing LOL. so i need to head down to HD for that.

Now I am hungry because those pancakes look damn goooood

oh yeah those are some of the best pancakes ever. i think its just a buttermilk pancake but the macadamia nut buttercream they add on top is the bomb. if your ever in hawaii go to the "HUNGRY LION" for pancakes.

I hope the bubble cloner works??!?! my first time using one of these an supposedly they work really good for cloning. so far no roots or root nubs. i lowered the water level so the bubbles arent popping so close to the lid, because my lid was dripping a lil outside.

UPDATE!! I have officially run out of growing space. so much so that my hashberry is getting burned on the tips .

on the good side, I started building my cab but its going slow or should i say Im pacing myself. I hope to be all finished up by the weekend and have the girls in there with more space.

oh yeah almost forgot, add one more female to the bunch. my HGS has shown female preflowers and is the 6th of 7 plants only got the grapevine X lavender left to sex.

my clones are still alive with no yellowing at all but also no roots only some tiny root nubs starting. maybe in another couple days roots will get longer.

time to start working on the cab again.

Cab is just about finished. Need to hang one more door on it and its pretty much done. Other things I still need to do (not listed in order)
1-cut passive intakes for veg and flower
2-cut exhaust for blower
3-install CFLs, HPS, and blower
4-hang mylar
5-run wiring in cab

Ok as for the girls they are doin great just need a new home already. I do have a lil problem though. I have them on 19/5 and they all have preflowers, and they keep making more. I dont want to flower until I have a few clones of each to make moms. Why are they still making preflowers under 19/5?? Should I put them under 24/0 to keep them vegging??

My bubble cloner is acting up and not making bubbles like its supposed to. If I cant get it working good I may try making a aero cloner or go back to rockwool/peat pucks. Any suggestions on a good cloning method? I need to take cut clones ASAP.

So instead of rushing and possibly messing something up on my cab. I redid my closet for temporary use. basically set it back up the way I had it for my previous grows.

Took cuttings while I did my closet. Two from every plant, all put in rockwool and under a dome. Added two more cuttings to my bubble cloner and its back to making bubbles like its supposed to. Over night I got roots on my older cuttings that were just doing ok, I think its due to me moving them with the rest of the group.

I keep forgetting to take pics of the cab so when its done, thats when Ill post them. I was gonna finish up to night but all I got to do was move it to its base. Thankfully I had some friends over today to give me a hand. Now that its on the base I can cut the intakes on the floor. Then cut the exhaust and check for negative pressure.

I wanted to make some sort of custom locking mechanism for the doors, but just cant think of how to start or where to begin. So any loggers that might be able to shed some light on the subject please do. I was checking google but didnt find anything I liked or that fit the project.
