Now that’s what I call a jungle in the making. Once these babies regenerate and pump up they’ll be filling the other room with buddage! I find that 4 plants can fill the space nicely under 1000watts hps in bloom.
yay, more growth!
Well clearly it couldn’t be a spec of dust in your clean room. 
lol I know, I know. I had to say it was a ghost because I’ve seen people make that hilarious claim about what is basically a skin cell or plant fiber floating in the breeze. I should have got out the image software and put a tiny face on the speck then claimed it was a ghost. Dang!
Oh I definitely got the joke. 
only a couple of days left until the contest! yay!
The plants are growing nicely, I mean the ones regenerating the roots aren’t growing good yet. Give them a couple more days! Seen lots of police patrolling the neighborhood, you can tell it’s harvest time! It’s hilarious how the cops have moved from trying to bust your crop, to trying to protect your crop. It must have been a total shock to their system LOL! Harvest is over here already. The next one is almost a week in! wheeee! I think the meat breath plants are going to be ready to bloom in the next slot. I should take a photo of some of the damage incurred by pulling the plant through a 6 cm hole. I could call it a nutrient deficiency and leave people scratching their heads. I recognize the fact I am running a ph higher than most people using hydroponics… I like to play it safe 
minor fluctuations shouldn’t put it in the danger zone.
shit, I forgot to say, I’ve seen talk about making cuttings at a 45 degree angle? You know, I ain’t never seen that shit in a botanical write up besides a cannabis one. I read this book on cloning and it never said anything like that it called them things like heel cutting. It had specific names for the “type” of cutting you made. I always wondered if the cannabis cutting shit was just broscience.
IMO cutting a clone at an angle is total broscience.
I’ve taken a fair few clones over the last month and none of them rooted where I cut them.
I’ve read in more traditional botany books that bridling them is more successful, and I’ve also had success cutting just below nodes - I’ve noticed sometimes the roots like to pop from nodes.
yah the node thing is real, that’s where most of the stem cells are. I rip the clone off hah hah I never use scissors or a blade.
Ripping is kind of a mini bridling, if you take the surface skin from the stalks it exposes the cells more directly to your rooting hormone.
well…honestly I don’t use rooting hormone for cannabis. If you’re talking about cloning the grapefruit tree, hell yes to the hormone. Some cases the rooting hormone is a waste like cloning basil or tomatoes or even peppers I never used hormones. ooo the most important part about cloning a tree is maintain 75% humidity minimum. I can clone the weed at 45% humidity with no hormone, though, in water culture. You need a dome for cloning with a medium. I didn’t use hormone cloning the apple tree, mind you only one survived after someone took the dome off too early.
LOL in summary, you can generally clone plants the same way, with humidity and hormone, but it’s sometimes not a requirement.
I’m big on chopping at the nodes myself, they always seem to explode for me, even if they take an extra day or two. I had always heard that the 45 degree thing was about exposing a bit more surface area and about helping drips from in the case of a Bubble or aero cloner. The idea was that if droplets form and fall of the tip more frequently it helps promote a more constant exchange of moisture at the cuttings tip.
But again, all anecdotal, as is the case with Broscience. I’ve always done the 45 cuz Ive never really had any issues with it so I’ve never examined it in any technical depth. I’m a stem scraper and frequently a stem splitter as well though, but it’s always worked for me.
But yeah, I’ve also just hacked into a node like a feral beast and done fine before as well!! 
here’s ,my imaginary nutrient problem. It’s actually just some scrapes on the surface of the plant leaf from pulling it through a hole. Usually they get holes and scrapes from super rough treatment.
plants are all starting to grow from the roots up. I never got a good focused image the roots were waving around and I couldn’t be bothered.
phew! And now for the bloom room. Did someone call for a jungle? This is the single light that’s going right now. Don’t blame me, I didn’t do nothin’…oh wait that’s the problem 
As for the clones, I always make sure the stems are submerged in the water, not dangling in the air. Just think of it as an exact replica of DWC, except with no roots.
edit: pic enclosed
I don’t bother with humidity, and honestly I clone in a bubble cloner so I can probably forego the rooting hormone too.
yah your setup is very similar to my cloning setup I still have my old net pots heh heh I use em for different tasks.
I’ve got another crazy thing I do with the cannabis. I know, I make hash…oil…string…but there’s yet another thing, I can crank out these bespoke origami mobiles. I take the dried side branches from the plant and strip the bark. Then I sand and polish it and make it into a mobile with lots of crazy origami. The stems are actually really light and strong. I’ve also used the main stalk as a handle for utensils.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuck! OK so you wanted to know how long my water culture plants will survive with no air? new record is 36 hours yo! I went down there after 24 hours and stirred the thing to get more oxygen in the buckets. OTher than that, the plants are doing good, the larger ones had a bit of root stress but that’s gone now. I’ll go and water then take a picture so everyone can see they survived THIS natural disaster. hah hah you know if I examine the shit that’s happened lately, I’m not even sure what’s going on. What with the almost dying, and the crazy hobos, with the major disaster…is life really just one shitstorm to the next? ha hhah of course it is. That’s why I need weeeeeeeeeed!
