Christmas clones :)

[SAP420]

Ok, As some may know, I took clones of my one and only girl that I had and they are now officially mature and into their second week of bloom. I've decided for now on that I will use fluoros for veg stage and use my 400w hps for the flower stage. I also have clones of these clone set to root right now in their little plug tray under a 150 w fluro lamp. Anyhow lemme know what you think! Alsooooo..... anyone know the secret to getting awesome root balls in their reservoirs in a drip system? I have an airstone in each res but would like to know if there is anything else I can do to encourage the root growth.

Plants are lookin good! how long did you veg them? I'm using a 600w for flower and about 6cfl's for veg under a bubble cloner. It's working great, as the plants have a lot of roots compared to leaf development. I think the key is to have a high airflow air pump. Mine flows 70 liters per min through 6 air stones in a 2gallon rez. I'm going to put them into a drip system later so i'll let you know what i find about root development. I have a nutrient mix called root66 thats suppose to promote root growth. Are you using any nutrients in the mix and whats you're ph at? I'm running 6.8 on my clones but plan to bring it down soon.

I am currently feeding them floranova bloom at a 2tbsp/gallon dose. The ph is sitting at 6. They veg'd for 3 weeks but that was because I had to wait for my girl to finish blooming and harvest. Thanks for the comments. I will look into some root enhancers. :jointsmile:

I just picked up four individual waterfarms. Gonna through them in my Sun Tent under my 400w HPS. Hope I have as much success as you have in the past. Gimme some tips you learned with the waterfarm if you can think of any.
