Looking good everybody. Sorry I havenā€™t been hitting on all 4 lately. My cabinet light went up so I had to leave my clone on 12/12 for a couple days. I wasnā€™t sure if they were gonna make it. :blush:

Iā€™m so frigging persistent itā€™s Vegas or bust. That being said. Hereā€™s the clones. Stretched on me. Iā€™m glad to be here and see yā€™all. I love this community. Hope all is well here is my entered cup on the right and her little sister on the left.
God speed little ones.

Hey, Solo cups make cups that have more of a squared off bottom and I put clones in the clear cups and then into the red cup like you;re doing. The newr cups allow for the clear one to sit all the way down inside.

Itā€™s a really good way to monitor your root growth without having it in the clear cup only.

I prefer the square inset bottom one to the regular round ones any day, this last time I was in a hurry though and accidentally grabbed the round ones instead

Guys got it going on. My solos from last cup are still rolling. Everythingā€™s getting rock solid. My Maui solo cup is so packed with roots I have to slow water over the period is a half hour. The water will slowly trickle out.

@Deadinside88 I donā€™t get a lot of time to really check everybody out. I tried pumping you for a light bro bro. I remember seeing your mars hydro light. I wanted a light but I acted like a jack wagon towards them. Itā€™s all good. Light goes on :wink:

Hope you got your timer situated. I use be in control of our pool lights as a child. I love the old analog guys. Maybe weā€™ll get lucky and man a second place or something. If nothing Iā€™ll be an expert out of the solos hehe. Yā€™all have a good one. Those clones I had were dormant in the a.cā€¦ soon as they touched the hid theyā€™re jumping.

Eye hortilux bulbs are the truth. Worth every penny. I want a gavita phantom. Iā€™ll get there. Looks good gents. :call_me_hand:

Haha indeed light does go on, no worries though I know they ainā€™t even close to top of the line but it was what I could afford at the time(without getting in to deep of shit with the wife) and it does good though my plan is to pick up another light for in the tent and use the mars hydro for either one of my veg spots or if I build another little grow box.

Thankfully i got my timer issue solved :grin: had to steal an old timer/outlet combo we used to use for our turtle tank and everything is back up in running. Iā€™ve still got my cherryberry cross going from the solo cup from seed contest in there now but I had to transplant it to a slightly bigger pot.

Same here. I cut mine 10 days ago now and it is surviving overnight without a dome. But no visible roots yet.

What you got yours planted in there @Jamescoldflame ? Good stuff that.

Far as I can tell no roots here yet eitherā€¦ and as a side note looks like I need to either see if I still have a active warranty on my light in the tent, been noticing that the light seemed like something was differentā€¦looked up and saw I have 2 rows of lights on it burnt out :slightly_frowning_face: time to find my paperwork

Lol I was actually just working on a post in the mars hydro thread, i feel kinda dumb though cuz i didnt notice till I put one of ReikoXā€™s fam 2 mixes in the tent ( figured why not give her a little more than the t5) and it went from vibrant and thriving to all the leaves looking dead and like it was at end of flower. So looked to see if maybe it needed to be cleaned or if maybe there was a led or 2 out, didnt expect to see 2 full rows dead. Trying to find my manual and shit to see if I can file a claim if itā€™s still under warranty or at least maybe repair or parts to do it. Just sucks cuz cash is beyond tight right now so buying a new light is out of the picture for a minute.
Also it makes me wonder of/how much it changed the spectrum balance( not sure if that would be correct term or not but still) from the amount of them thatā€™s out and the location.

I get you bud. I was in the middle of floweri g in my cabinet. My light went down. I had to break out my small fixtures and Iā€™m passing them in my tent until the light goes out. Gotta do what you can. Safe to say I donā€™t think mars hydro will grace my grass. I need more grass. Their ts3000 would be the only one. Or 3 of the skinny joints blah whatever.

Donā€™t be hard on yourself. Stop by the house sometime. Iā€™d like to holler at you. Talk shop out a the clone thread. :wink:

What a bitch bro!
If your warranty is out this might be diy fixable if you are a bit handy with a multimeter and a soldering ironā€¦ the first generation mars lights my bro had I had to replace the diodes fairly regularlyā€¦ someone of the intewebs will have done pull down of it for sureā€¦
