I got the seeds from Hemp Depot. They're SugarBlossom from Joey Weed. I germ'd 4. Three cracked and only one was male. I started small because this was my first grow.

The hydro rig is a DIY rig that I made from a couple of restaurant tubs. If you search the forum for my posts you'll be able to find the reference I made about it and then get a link for instructions.

The light is 400 watt with an electronic ballast so that I can change from MH to HPS.

I veg'd for about 6 weeks and then one of my plants started to show that it was a female. I went into flower and verified that one was a male and I have been flowering for 2 weeks now.

What I have learned from this was that I have certain height limitations. That's where I am at right now. I have a little over 14 inches left where I can raise my light but a good 45 days left for flowering. There's no way I can raise the light any higher without moving out of the closet I am in.

Since this is my first grow and primarily an experiment I am willing to slice and dice to get clones and start over. What I would do this time is keep my plants at about 20 inches while vegging and then let them do their thing while they flower. I'm not really worried about the quantity as much as I am with the quality so I am paying very close attention to flushing posts so I make sure that i don't get crappy tasting weed.

People often post they get more out of topping and if i top the clones as they veg I guess I'll find out.

Oh, the sugar blossom is a F2 cross of WW and something else. You can read about it at Hemp Depot under Joey Weed.

piglet420 Reviewed by piglet420 on . My Latest Issue I'm 14 days into flower. There is no way I can go 45 to 60 days with only a foot or so space left to keep my light over my 2 girls. So that being the case I was considering making clones and starting over with them, but this time I would keep them topped which is what I should have done the first time (this is my first real grow). I read that I shouldn't take clones from flowering plants, can anyone confirm this. Additionally, how do I do clones? I mean, what kind of stem am I looking for to Rating: 5
