I use a 5 gal bucket then put a 3 gallon inside that. Drill a1/2 inch hole below the inside bucket, that’s the air gap and when water comes out it full, I fill it every 2 to 3 days. It really depends on what stage of flower

This is the Dj short Blueberry that I cloned from the mail- order clone, both are growing vigorously. The Alien og hasn’t rooted yet.

Alien og clone finally rooted so it’s gonna be flip time be the end of the week. My light is a Volt fl-1, and it’s at 50 percent now.

I took a look to see if roots made it to the bottem, looking good so far, hopefully I can make it to the finish line with no trouble.

I spent a little less than 20 bucks at the hardware store. They are pretty effective!

Update, after a week of switching to 12/12,
clones looking really good but the Sweet n Sour Cindy turned male. I was getting excited but he going outside now. Maybe I’ll dust something with it.

Well ,l Ended up F.A.F.O this one……… I was lucky enough to contract russet mites, maybe from my work , I dunno. The clones were good from the start, I had problems developing in my veg tent as the fan leaves started to canoe. I figured they were thirsty at first didn’t think any thing of it. Then I stuck some of those plants in with the clones I bought from the mail, those clones then got them. I ended up using dr enzyme eliminatior, it’s seemed to work on the alien og but the blueberry is too far gone. The russet mites didn’t like the pondo pine and one platinum ice, but all others were toast.

Sorry to hear about your mite problem, but the tent is looking lovely otherwise. I’ll be following along to see how these turnout. K++ I’m outta likes @Vegabom

Is there an air stone, or is there any circulation of the juice in the reservoir, or bottom of the bucket?
Best of luck in your endeavors.

No , but that’s not a bad idea, there’s a air gap built in but the air stone would be better I suppose

The Green Ganja gods have shine some light upon me! Thanks to @ManyManySpliffs for sending the BMR pollen that he won from a giveaway from @DougDawson. I am NOW gonna go full pollination on the ALIEN OG that survived a bout of russet mites. Everything is out of the tent except the one plant. I hope this works out and if so, Spliffs, you get to name this strain, ( the Overgrow Universe is an amazing thing!)

Glad it made it, that stuff is definitely potent @Vegabom . Made a bunch of JLB x BMR seeds with it. I’m good on the name tho, you or someone else on OG can name it. I’m not the best with picking names.

Fair enough, thanks again, I was a little late getting yours sent out, I never sent anything outside u.s. before, so this is an another learning experience to send beans out. This can get you in a jam sending out crushed seeds. I want to get this right, nobody wants to see seeds crushed of some fire genetics. Another thanks to @Cory for suggesting the Alien og. This has been a big ordeal because of those dam russet mites. One thing as a grower I am happy with is I can tell the plants signs of stress because of those little fuckers you can’t even see. I wanna be able to grow with using my eye to determine a plants health. My take away from this is to have a IPM from the get go if indoors.

After visiting my local grow shop, I happened to look in the seed case as I walked by. Guess what caught my eye?… Alien OG! So I had to buy it to give this strain another go around since I botched the clone grow @Cory . They gave me a bonus pack as a freebie. I will be giving this away tonight on the free seed thread ( around 9:pm eastern). It’s only 1 bean! Hahahhaaa

Okay, after a successful outdoor crop, now it’s time to give @Sun-Clone another whirl. Excellent packaging for 4 clones ( free shipping), they were running a special, all looks in good shape. Would definitely recommend. Moby Dick, purple punch, lemon sour diesel, gorilla glue #12.
