This is a Stardawg 6 days in the Octo’s. No flop at all, I did have them staked, but the stem never lost it’s rigidity. This clone has grown 4” in the last 6 days. Doesn’t seem like much to most, but if you are used to the Octo’s it’s huge!!
I’m my experience, the first week of transplant is almost a throw away week. No growth, limp plant, just a stall. This round I timed my clone better, but still has room for improvement. And used a new technique the @Jetdrow just came up with. And am really pleased with the results so far.
I loaded the sleeve with pro-mix and added perlite. 75/25. Filled to 12 inches. I use the same solo cups I have for my clones and pack around it in the top of the sleeve. This makes transplanting a breeze.
Jet’s idea was instead of watering the whole top down of the sleeve, punch holes in a solo and water into it. Thereby keeping the moisture in more of a column leading to the rez. 1/2 gal there and 2 gallons in the rez. And it sure seems to work!!
Sorry so long winded. Just high and happy!! Can’t wait to see what the next 2 weeks are going to bring!
