Flowering Clones and their offspring

[Jungl3Jim]

Hey all,

Haven't posted anything for a while but holy cr@p I never thought I'd have what I have now, from the poxy mother this lot came from

The link is to the original mom (and grandmother) to the pics below.

I'll call her GM from here on in
I'll get to listing what I'm using shortly.. just wanna get some pics up for now :thumbsup:

In the pics there are...
1x plant from a seed I got from getting GM to fert herself on a lower branch. GM spat two male flowers in the whole grow last time round and I used one for the seeds I got and I've stored the other for maybe using on the worst of whats in the fluoro cupboard.

2x Clones taken from GM 3 weeks into flower. They had a hell of a job going back to Veg, but as you can see the branching effects are nothing short of phenomenal
One of these two original clones from GM has given me the grandchildren I list next

20x Clones taken from one of the flowering clones above, and the mother clone recovered very well and is keeping up growth/progress with the untouched clone easily. I was trying for single cola's only, flowered them as soon as they rooted, 2 weeks old and no more than 3 inches high.

I'll break the gear and nutes etc down but the tall room has a 400w MH and the long grandchildren room has 440w CFL & Tubes

I'll try and keep this updated as much as poss

Cheers all for your interest :jointsmile:

I basically have two rooms set up.

1st room: 6ft/sq (3x2) - The big ladies
Lighting consists of a single 400w Metal Halide cheap $45NZD (about $30USD)
4000 Kelvin
New-ish lamp - around 36000 Lumens

2nd room: 6ft/sq (4x1.5) - Single stick clones
Lighting consists of 6x40w T8 Fluoro tubes and 10x20W Spiral CFL's
Warm White - 2700Kelvin
All new tubes and bulbs - around 35000 Lumens all up

Feeding is the same for both sets of ladies.
Some people may argue with my feeding regime but it works for me.
I use the following...
Nature's Own - Super Grow and Super Bloom
Earth Juice - Grow and Bloom
Superthrive in every watering regardless of feeding.
Now for the controvertial bit..
I feed double the recommended dose half as often.
Meaning the nutes state to use 5ml once a week.
I use 10ml of the Natures Own and another 10ml of the Earth Juice once every two weeks. And PH'd water for everything in between + superthrive.
I have no nute burn, constant and steady great growth.
No issues whatsoever.

Medium:
Potting mix from the Switched on Gardner - Our local hydro/grow guys (75%)
Added to this is a perlite/vermiculite blend (20%)
Worm castings (5%)
Dolomite lime for the vegging soil mix and potash for the flowering mix (as required)

Not much else to say really.
Lighting schedule was initially 24/0 for the first couple weeks.
Slowing down to 20/4 for the next couple weeks
Then on to 18/6 for the remainder of Veg
No need to state really but 12/12 for flower

They're doing bloody well for my 2nd ever grow.
Check the link in the first post above to get an idea of how badly I did last time compared to this effort.

I'm firkin stoked and have you fine people to thank in part to any success I've had.
Appreciate it.. cheers all

I look forawrd to any feedback

i think most people are hesitant to grow this way . (reveg and the like) but as it looks . nice job :thumbsup:
ill be on the lookout for the returns. very curious to see how much u get off one plant. :jointsmile:

HI from HI

ill be on the lookout for the returns. very curious to see how much u get off one plant.

14g dry and cured from grandma, check the link.. she was only about a 1/3 of the larger girls when I put her into flower.
The pics above were taken at day 15 after the change to 12/12

These are closer up and today

the first 2 and the last one are the halide area
and the 3&4 are the stick clones in the fluoro area

Hey ppl..
I'm not into sounding like a whinging biatch...
but with over a hundred views..
only one person has any sort of comment??

I'm not beggin for praise or anything, but it's kinda hard to get a feel for things even though this is the 2nd grow from the same family.
Do they look OK?
Do you disagree with my feeding?
Lighting setup's?
Anything but silence ppl, this is kinda like being in the dog box with the missus :wtf:

[martyrprojekt]

you got me interested. I will say, I am wary of trying to re-veg anything. But, your girls are looking very sexy! Cheers to you my friend!

I will keep watching the thread...as it is very interesting...:wtf:

RE: the reveg...
I am too from what I've read.
It was a last minute decision to take the original clones, Do or Die so to speak.
For the most part ppl don't think it's worth the extra time and hassle to reveg,
I tried rooting them on the existing 12/12 lighting and they rooted in 2 weeks.
So much for theories of some ppl, that they won't root at all on that schedule.
I used the 12/12 'cos I didn't want to change the schedule due to stress.
Only took two weeks and they were both sweet, and what you see now.

These 20x clones were taken during veg, just their mom's are flowerering clones.

Cheers for the interest, I'll try my best to keep this updated

The starting to get somewhere.
To be honest I think the fluoro's are out pacing the HID :wtf:
Not that I'm complaining

[Jungl3Jim]

I know it's from bagseed and all, but I think I've found a winner as far as that side of things go...I get the feeling that you lot except martyr' don't really give a crap.

Anyway.. here ya go

The trichs are coming on hard in the fluoro room.
Not so much in the halide area.
As I said previously, the fluoro's are rolling all over the halide

Comments??????? :wtf:

[greeri]

looking real good. The flouro besting the mh surprises me. I'll keep that in mind in the future. I know somebody who will be real interested. Thanx for trying both side by side, it's appreciated.
