Yes indeed, work time pay off, I'm quite sure you'll get a nice result.

LuciferN Reviewed by LuciferN on 11-13-2008. New grow show. Scrog with CFL's. Need input! Hi everyone! Been trying to get get some good buds going since June. My first attempt withered away 2 weeks into flowering because of a mishap with a home recipe for insect control. I had a favorite plant that I took a clone from and now am back into the swing of things. After the clone started taking off I let it veg for 6 weeks under a 2x4ft screen. I was concerned about the plant getting pot bound in its 3.5 gal pot so I switched it into flower when the screen was about 50% full. After Rating: 5

Here is a picture of my first attempt. They all started from seeds from good knugs. I took cuttings from #6 as this plant had the best SCROG characteristics.

Anybody use Jack's Classic bloom fertilizer?

3 days, no responses. i'd say thats a no. sorry jd.

wa wa waaaaaaa... Well its a new day and the plants are getting a little more bud structure. No other real noticeable changes.
I see that most of my leaves are kinda curling downward. Is this something to deal with nutrient deficiencies?

[jdsoil]

Checked the plants and they are looking wonderful. Tons of new bud structure and project-X is looking like someone had fun with powdered sugar... Amazing! I took some clones for next grow, one to keep as a mother, three others to throw under the screen. My other mother plant, a project-X also, has yet to be cloned.
I germinated the seeds the 5th of September, could I take clones from a 2 1/2 month old plant or should I wait longer?

stoppin in to thank you for following my pre-grow.
i have heard that downward curling leaves are nute deficiency, but i'm not fully convinced that detecting it would be that simple as to look at a leaf.
as far as the 2.5 month old plant and it being able to be cloned... has it showed sex yet? once they're sexually mature, you can take clones.

thanks again for lookin in on mine; i know i'll follow this one through till harvest. good luck and stay safe.

Thanks Golden, the mother plant was from feminized seeds and is showing sex, maybe I will give it a try today and see if anything happens. I will only be out a few branch tips if cloning doesn't work right?

[jdsoil]

Thanks for stopping by Golden. The mother plant is from feminized seeds so I am sure it is a female. As for sex, well, its showing pre-flowers and alternate branching, so I guess its ready. I will try a couple cuttings today then. If it doesn't work I am only out a few branch tips right? :jointsmile:

Any ideas on when to cut the nutes and start to flush on a bag seed strain whose flowering time is unsure of???
