cloning/sexing..

[bonbon]

add an extra flood cycle or two while the lights are on,try to keep replemishing the air,Aim a fan between the underside of the lamp and the top of the plants,try to keep reservoir temps around 68-70fh,and ph 5.5-5.8.....bonbon

bonbon Reviewed by bonbon on 06-12-2004. cloning/sexing.. alright ive come this far. the plants are all growing doing very good. Theres 7 survivors.. theyre all about 12" tall now (some taller than others) and I was wondering how I should go about cloning them without sexing them. The problem is that since I grew them all from seeds, I dont know which are females and which are males. My plan was going to be to just take one clone from all the plants, and label each clone so that when my plants did sex I would at least have clones already growing of Rating: 5

i added an extra flood cycle and changed the nut mix too.. i think i made the mix too weak with a water/nut ratio that was a little bit high. the plants really arent doing good at all today. One of them has actually flopped over completely just bending the stem.. should I put them closer to the light? what else could be causing the all of a sudden sickness?

it sounds like it may be high heat and humidity and a lack of fresh air,if you have an outtake fan in your cabinet,let it run continuously,give them the full recomended dose of nutrients,and check the ph,then wait a couple of day to see if that helps,if you dont have an outtake,place a fan above the light fixture as well as below(on the plants) to promote air exchange and remove the extra heat and humidity....bonbon
