Check out the roots on my formerly sick seedlings. This is 1 good watering of Cannazyme and then 1 good watering of Rhyzotonic. Both are Canna products. This gives me the platform for great grows, full juicy trichome covered buds. The better roots the better the final product.
I just now fed them with a 3/4 strength program with Emerald Harvest products
The extra oxygen in the Cannazyme breaks down and dying or decaying plant matter and roots. As well as bringing extra oxygen which roots need in abundance, it also gives them food with the breakdown of plant/root matter
There are a few ways, depends on timeline and if I want to keep clones or not. I usually take cuttings stick them in my auto cloner under 12/12. This time I think I’ll just top all my plants and label each cutting (or label each solo cup and have 1 cutting in each) and flip to 12/12 and wait. I’d rather take clones that I’m going to keep from lower branches and as my plants need a topping I can get 2 birds stoned at once
All my clones i have rolling now were cut and immediately put in water to sit for 30 mins. Then after they have absorbed as much water as they can (this helps prevent air embolisms) I recut below a node, dip in clone x (or any generic rooting gel or powder) for 15 seconds, then put straight to dirt. I had like 18 of 20 root well. I use a heat mat and humidity dome spray a couple times a day for the first 3 days then once a day for the rest of the week, before adding 2 cups of water with a little rhyzotonic and b52 to my tray, opening my dome vents a little more each day. Around day 10 my dome is off for good and plants are rooting
My bubble cloner is a bit different, I cut, soak in water for a few mins, recut, dip and immediately in to my bubble cloner which has a bit of rhyzo and b52 from the get go. I spray once or twice for the first few days (no dome) and that’s it, 10 days later I have great roots
Great info on your personal tech @Jinglepot, I’m going to incorporate some of this, thank you. When you put cuttings in aerocloner on 12/12 do you flower out the females in those or cull all when you know the sex?
Depends if I want to keep them, when I am testing for sex I usually time it for when they need to be topped and discard after they show sex. Occasionally I’ll keep one but I try and take all my clones from bottom branches and I usually take clones 2 weeks before I flip when I lollipop and prune the hell out of them. It also seems to work better time wise for my clones rooting, vegging and when my flowered plants come down my clones are mature and can just be pruned, lollied and flipped. The cuttings I take for topping and checking sex are taken really early and the plants just get too big by the time the flower room is ready. Also when the plants are this small and im just checking sex there aren’t many other clones I can take from the plant and I usually like taking 8 or 10 clones per plant, then take my choice of a few that I want to grow from those cuttings
And the clones… just because they’re loving the supplemental blue lighting. Every couple days I change it to purple for the day. T5 and CFL lighting above.
These poor plants theu just recover from the cold damage and what do I do?? Hack em up! Lol. Topped them all, labeled each top and moved the clones to my flower room for sexing. The bounce back on these is pretty awesome.
Stacking up good, nearing the end of week 6. The Bubba Kush is by FAR the chunckiest, huge super dense colas. The molokai and the og kush smell the best. The God’s Master kush will probably all go to hash and oil and its super sticky with a great smell but the buds are extremely light and fluffy.
Fully recovered from the toppings. These guys need to be transplanted in a bad way. Just waiting for the topped cutting to show sex. Probably 1.5 more weeks give or take.
