The kongs krush roots alright. Good to know its not finicky as I thought.

Overview. Day 9 of flower.

Side views. Want to keep it short n sweet but so far these clones growing different. Only my second run, first run in clone form. Need these notes for future reference.

I had to go from 1.1ec to 1.7-1.8 to keep happy. I topped earlier. Scrogging it for first time.

Running out of photo space in phone so need to use this journal as a journal instead of just flexin and making a cool flip book which is on my bucket list.

Need to retrace my steps next run for the things I found useful this time around.

Aaand theres more post harvest. The very last bit of it before being trashed. One last extraction. Edibles. 7oz trim and 1oz rosin pucks this time around but upon harvest Il immediately process into nothing.

Expecting 11oz trim mostly bud trimmer trim, 1.5ibs flower rosin pucks and 14gs kief pucks. The trim will be sifted and the kief pressed like I did last time.

Then extract the rest that just wont shake off by grinding to dust and infusing in oil. This stuff slaps. Im feelin good. So about 16 cups butter every 11 weeks.

There will be excess while the rosin will be just barely enough for me. I can turn a huge portion of it to topicals though. If to find creative ways to pay off grow bill this would be it.

Id say I consume about 1/4 to 1/2 cup butter a week and can easily go long periods of time simply not using edibles.

So all these harvest posts will be noted and close to eachother. This was late, just finally processed and still have a little more left in rosin pucks.

Most of this is KK and WU so including in journal. I like to note my earnings.

Overview

Day 18 flower 2.5 weeks should be end of stretch start of budding and it is!

Some side views. It wasnt that hard to get to this point. The larger tent is easier to scrogg but 2x2 are tricky. Just trying make it look like this next round.

Lights are all on max and at min distance from canopy. All fans high. 65-75F 45-53RH. Dehuey is off still. Its not needed yet simply.

Ooohhhh yyyyeaaaahhhh

Find new kick ass cloning method? Check!!! They loves the heat mat. Day 17 theyre begging to be potted. 5 of them, the magic number.

Ok so now just take clones on time because these will sit until they go to shit or trashed which makes me sad. My fault. I was tossing the mother and took one last batch.

That little did I know would be too damn early. I got 6 weeks before 5 more spaces open. Rooting clones is soooo satisfying over popping beans.

edit added pic of my diy tent fully up and running. Full house. It will help with rooting/planting times. Rooted clones before spots become available at harvest? Here ya go!

A bit early this time but Il love the new setup when I get things synced. Pretty confident I can root clones, at a common time frame to other growers at that.

Damnit, todays actually day 18. It did stretch a little more but its got its first buds/sugar leafs coming in. Noticed I didnt note even in my gallery I cant find when I topped the 2x4 plants.

Either on day of flip or 4-5 days after flip is all I can dig up. Need make better notes. Breeder said it likes to be topped multiple times.

I hesitated to let it grow last second and topped it thinking it would grow a certain way around the edges of the center and it appears to be doing that.

Just some close ups of the canopy. Decent light all the way through and sits low (the 2x4). Studying the structure to improve. Didnt do too bad first time.

Topped at 4th node and again on dominant growth around edges of center. Most the growth made it to canopy. Not bad for a short tent 5’. The lights are weaker so it can grow into it a bit.

A stronger light would be dimmed at this point so kinda like these lights, making my first attempt at a short 2x2 with bushy plant work.

The 2x2 single tent was topped at like 10th 11th node and suprisingly grew well but its a 6’ tent. So just gonna get used to making 3 same shaped plants.

Smells when entering the tent! Watermelon Ultra for those of yall just now viewing. By TH seeds. 9 week pheno. 24oz bud to 70gs rosin if possible.

Tomorrow will be 4 weeks complete. They keep iching upward little by little after 2.5 weeks to now and still might be creeping up more but was mostly done by end of week 3 in terms of final shape.

Some tents should be scrogged harder till then. By end of week 3 the dehuey went on to keep 45-55rh its on 24/7 emptied daily. Need set alarm to empty or get a hose to drain it.

Will do the latter at some point for convenience but makes the dehuey less moveable as I only have a square foot walk way around tents to work inside them.

I used a lux meter to dial in 600-900 through the canopy but the 2x2 is dimmed due to growing too far into light. I put too much coco the 2.5x5 pots are popping the cap up and overflowing. Wont cmforget to under load them next time.

Side views and bud shots of 2x2 and 2x4 clones in that order.

The 2.5x5. Gosh hard to keep journal short but I need to retrace steps next round though this tent is going almost flawlessly.

Tomorrow end of week 5. Watermelon Ultra THseeds. So spicy and sweet yet lemon sour.

Some root shots of flood tray beard and oversized clones I threw away. Also threw away 5 clones that were planted while ago and just didnt seem optimal, need a re-sync in the garden. Taking new clones before harvest to set straight.

Most important note I must make that this post is really for is that I have what I think is nute burn. Must of started end of week 4. Inflow 1.8ec and runoff 2.3ec.

It was a little lower than inflow when diagnosing to increace ec from .8 to 1.8 perhaps a few points too high? one things for sure back down to 1.5ec or TBD before week 5. Was in hurry to flip, didnt have long to wait to see if perhaps 1.5ec or so was good enough.

Just when you think you dialed in the last thing.. How fun though. I didnt get this far with soil even with the help of RIU but dtw coco works. Dialing in coco is pretty fun.

Oo edit while still can: One wonky clone barely rooted pot and barely any growth can see in pic. Need be on look out for wonks. Keep extra two clones and toss when confirm I got all vigor.

Shaded out from all other clones but just looking at it and the 80% lack of roots I thought this what they mean by shitty phenos. But with clones. The mothers of my strains took 3 months to grow. Need to avoid that with my production clones.

Floraflex is magic for dtw. It's the combination of the watering caps and the extreme drainage design on the bottom of the pots. It just works.

Glad to see you found a sweet spot for clone production. Your beard of knowledge has grown! Nice work.

Sweet roots!!

Took cuttings today. Usually ready to plant end of week 3. I may be a week early since idk exactly when harvest is but estimate 9-10wks tops. I trimmed back the 2x2 plants but should just take those clones later.

Next run that will improve knowing when harvest is and yet again getting success cloning root riots. Confidence to just take as needed. I recommend a equal flower foot print to avoid that but I couldnt.

I have all the dtw setup space needed for all 10 veg clones so no hand water. So my dresser tent is handy for now.

Ac infinity dome and mat with light. Super set and forget, just keep cells full of water few times. KLN hormone in the water thats it. Fresh blade alcohol dwelled 15mins. I didnt clean it per cut though.
