i've got a quick little update for all of you interested parties.....

i've borrowed a cloner from a friend. it is a 5 gallon bucket with 10 holes (2" i think) drilled out of the top and net cups dropped in each one. then there are discs that hold each clone as the stem hangs into the net pot. (see pics below.)

in this beast i've put:
1x DBP (i think this is gonna be a male, still not sure though)
3x OG to gift said friend
2x WH
2x diesel
2x DWW

it will be interesting to compare the times it takes for the cuts to take roots in the peat pucks vs the hydroponic cloner.

i have also tidied up the mother/clone/night-time veg area.

that's about it for the time being. i hope all is well with everyone. peace.

Sweet log so far Shake, I am quite interested in the hempy buckets, so I will be following closely. Also that cloner looks awesome!

Not trimming down any of the fans on the clones?? Just curious if it was an oversight or if there was a reason.

just haven't done it yet. i was in a hurry to get some pictures up.

it's interesting though because the clones in the jiffy pellets didn't get their leaves trimmed and they are doing well. the leaves on the others will be getting cut though.

With the amount of water that will collect under the short dome, large leaves touching eachother and the sides are inviting spots for mold and crap to reside. Trimming them shorter won't harm anything, and it'll give a little more room in there.

Not saying it can't be done without trimming, it clearly can. Just a suggestion from my experience with that "type" of cloner :jointsmile:

In the end, it's up to you my friend.

Peace

i'm not disputing your superior intelligence my friend!

i did plan on cutting the ones in your cloner. i should have cut the other ones too. i just didn't to start with and saw that they were doing fine and said fuck it. i never gave it thought beyond that.

i totally see your point about mold and crap.
