Thanks for the words @Gazza . Sorry to hear your shut down, I hope all is well. You don’t need to be growing to hang out, you know, but I look forward to when you popping beans again.
Hi @Budderton
Great breakdown with the pics of your process I was thinking of trying the fridge technique for cuts, but I’m afraid they wouldn’t last 8 weeks. I don’t think they would even last 1 week cause I love making canna juice
Right on @Oldtimerunderground ! I should make a dedicated thread on the process, I guess.
I get 8wks, no problem, but I’d like to push it to 12-14 wks. That way, if I take the snips right before the donor plant goes to flower, I can get a dry(though uncured) sample to help determine what to keep around, before I root anything. It really saves space in the veg room.
Come on @Budderton…admit it…you have a Pet Cemetary for plants, dontcha?!?
I don’t want to be buried
In a pet cemetery…
RIP Joey.
It is quite the resurrection…a lot of people will appreciate this.
ICC, very nice!
Thanks man! I have a feeling yours will finish faster in the octos. I was thinking if I ran these again I would drop from 12/12 to 13/12 after 4 wks or so, to try and hasten maturation. Best of luck with yours @Floyd !
Pass me some of what you’re wake n bakin you know it’s good shit when it adds an extra hour to your day
Edit. Jus playin Budderton, I know you meant 11/13
Actually while I have your ear. How was the stretch. Growth in the octos is fast, easy to end up too tall.
Lol… just noticed that.
Oh yah!
I blame the Giraffe Puncher hash.
The get tall,fast! At least 2x stretch, maybe a bit more. I was just in sunshine mix #4 so I imagine their gonna take off in the octos.
Thanks for the info. Will flip them early just to be sure.
Dude this is great, I wish I would have read this earlier in the week. I had some questions about the viability of the pollen I used in my outdoor run, that and knowing that I wrapped those cuts of the male I discarded motivated me to pull em out and try to root em and they e been lookin rough like your first photos for a while, starting to come back a little bit though I think, but next time I’ll give em that soak like you did. Such cool tech man!!
Right on @LegsMahoney . I do the same thing when making fresh clones as well. I like to let fresh cuts soak for a couple hrs before I apply hormone and put them into rock cubes. I find a much higher success rate then putting fresh snips straight to cubes. Good luck with your male. I hope it makes a comeback.
Just curious you ever use a bubble cloner? I used to do cubes and rooting powder but since getting the bubble cloner there’s no comparison in getting stuff to root.
I used a homemade bubble cloner for a spell but I went back to cubes and dome with no problems.
Hope you don’t mind me coming in here. I was looking for ICC pics and found this thread. Lots of really outstanding plants in this thread. Excellent work. If you don’t care I will set to Watching.
Of course @BigMike55 ! Everyone is welcome here! Lots of tomfoolery to be had by all!
And thank you for your words.
Ill be hanging around too. Lol
