Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

StinkBud said:

No I don't use clonex or a timer. I just stick the cuttings in on 24/7 and wait. I also use a simple shop light for lighting. So far everything's been going great!

Some strains are easy to clone and some are hard. My Purple Wreck pops roots in 4-7 days. During the same run the Tahoe OG just sat there with little white nubs but never popped!

Water - I fill it up to just under the sprayers. Then I just add water when needed. I change the water every crop (2 months) but it's only used for a couple of weeks each run.

Ok, so your just putting the cutting in like a neoprene cover and the stem just hanging below it? Do you splice up the middle from the bottom at all?


Stick em in like this?

Thats all it needs

Awesome, thanks all!

Hey Stink and SS

what kind of ph, ppm and temp meters are you using at the moment?

How about room controllers, ie, lights, vents, CO2, and so on?

Lol ya, whats it 5 years now? Thats awesome! Hey Stink, do you still uses Clonex in your cloner, and is it still 150ml clonex in there?? If so, how many gallons of water do you have in the cloner? I put just a glob in mine but its so "gel" like it seems like it just stays like that.. ? Just tryin to get this clone machine dialed in here. Thanks man! For all of this info!

The gel type is for dipping your cuttings into, the liquid is to add to the water in the cloner. I have had great results from 80ml of Clonex added to about 10 gallons of water and I do adjust the pH, against all advice. I cut a little slit 1/2" up the cutting and scrape a bit of bark off, then dip in gel and watch the magic happen in about a week. Because the cloner resides above a light it gets pretty warm, which the cuttings like, but it means I need to change the water after each run, about 10 days on average, to avoid stinky growing stuff. There are soft foam inserts, nice to have when the cuttings are wimps.

Over 1.7 million hits, even if only 10% buy the book, that's like a go-zillion dollars.

Oh i see. Didnt even know there was a liquid clonex. I just thought it was the gel kind only. Cool cool man, thanks for that.

As of now i put them in RW cubes like 10 days ago before i read all this about NOT putting them in there. So i dont wanna take them out in case they have started to root into the cubes... still wating to see roots tho. None of them are dead or falling over... so i figure they gotta be about to root anytime now. I got it set to go off 4 times a day 4 mins at a time.. Hopin for the best...

As long as the cutting does not dry out you should be OK. I totally love the cloner, it has been making plants for me from the smallest scraps that you wouldn't think could create a whole plant, but like magic, it keeps happening. The hard part is figuring out the timing. The cuttings work excellent when taken from a lower branch during veg. I have not taken one during flower, but have read that there are problems with that method and you might have a failed cutting if you do that. Overall it is a great method to keep your system working. I have met other growers who trade seeds, so combined with the cloner, I may never buy seeds again. Actually, I was thinking of placing an order from the 'Tude for a few 'special' seeds to try out. Just germ'ed Jack the Ripper, looking forward to growing that one out. There always seems to be another great strain...

Yep, that looks great. I cut the bottom of the netpot off because I reuse them.

Try not to focus so much on the tools as the plant. The most important aspect is not what tools/techniques you use but genetics. You have to find the right strain first.

I've tried many different brands of products and the fact is, they all work fine. Same with nutrients. The products are being used somewhere or they wouldn't be able to stay in business. Something to think about is, are you better off with brand name products or saving money and buying cheap. In some cases it doesn't make much difference. For example, there are a lot of different light reflectors out there. You can pay anything from $50-$300+. Some work better while others are just a lot of marketing fluff. Ask yourself this. Am I better off with 3 no-name lights or 2 brand-name lights? If you harvest a pound per light it's a pretty easy choice.

Some things you don't want to go cheap on though. Things like quality nutrients, bulbs and soil are all worth the extra money. Brand of PVC pipe is the most important thing of all though...ha! I'm fucking with you!

Suppose you go out and buy all the exact same equipment as me but get your starts/seeds from a buddy. Your medicine will never be the same as mine. It could be better or it could be worse. It all depends on the genetics. Some strains are big producers while others are better tasting, stronger, etc... What are your goals? Do you want quality? Quantity? You decide and good luck! What are the three most important things when growing pot? Genetics, genetics and genetics...

Funny thing. I have 5 purple wrecks in dwc (the 6th bean didn't make it, rip). Going to try to find a good pheno. Actually I'm going back to my stinkbud units of (3) 10 site units under (2)1000 watt magnum xxxl lights. I tried the hempy drain to waste hand feeding sog and that was too much labor for me plus working many hours with my job I think the stink bud units are best for my situation. Try hand feading 100 + 2 liter hempys every other day. That can get tiring.

Thanks SS and Stink for your replies

Also, to anyone who might have an opinion

I tried going to the DNA -reserva privada web site and they say " Category 'Reserva Privada' is unavailable for purchase in your shipping destination"

Hmmm, how do I get around this since I am curious about and eager to grow the Kandy Kush

any ideas?

Can you order them from Attitude? Check this link man!

I'll check it out and let u know

thanks for your response!!

This is the 8 station, 4 rail flower unit that I built recently, and currently the biggest plant is a Kandy Kush. Also running a Blue OG and a couple Meltdown high CBD from 303 seeds. I had to pull the Sour Kush as it turned out to be a male. There is also a 303 Cloud 9 in this run. I'll start a few clones of the KK today, the force is strong with that one.

StinkBud,

Thank you so much for the detailed information. I justpurchased your eBook too, and I eagerly await its arrival. I did want to ask though;would this system work well with a Screen of Green process?

Also, I wanted to know if instead of using 4" x 4"fence post for the Flower Unit, could you use a Trough 9" W x 3" D x20' Long? Or would the 3" trough not be deep enough?

I'm working with a 42' x 150' root cellar on my farm, with an8' ceiling height. I'm currently in the process of getting a legal growerslicense to be a provider for the RMD's here.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Stick with the fence posts bro. The StinkBud Jr. uses SGOG (Screen of Green) There are two layers built into the flower system. My soil method also used SCROG.

Where do I find info on the StinkBud Jr using the SGOG method? Is it in the eBook?
