I'm getting ready to try a new cloning method myself. https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/446136-smokes-perpetual-medical-growshow-open-2.html That's who's tutorial I'm following for the most part except I'm not going to use any hormones or anything like that plus I don't have a seedling heating mat. I'm just gonna let nature take its course. I have cloned before using a stinkbud aerocloner that I made. I still have it but can't use it currently due to unforeseen reasons so I'm testing out this method minus the cloning solutions and what not. Hope that helps some! Looking good man nice tray! is it a 4x4 or a 3x3?

Yeah that clone was fucked from the start, the cube is way to dry (probably because you've given up hope on it, lol) but the cut is way too small, it should be 3x the size.

Duh, what you think I'm stupid or somethin?! But yea, I am. So listen.. I know you said that I wont know their sex until flowering.. but a lot of people on here say that they will show their sex around week 6. Guess what week this is..? Check out these photos, I am almost 100% sure that Megan is a GIRL!!! FUCK YEA. But of course I could be wrong. BUT LOOK!

Everyone is correct, all plants from seed will eventually show their sex, it just usually take longer than we are willing to wait, so we expedite things a little bit with the cloning from 12/12. It is still a little bit to early to tell, I can see that the plants preflowering sites are just starting to form. Out of these sites (these are the lighter green and shinier crests that rest where the preflower should be) we will see either male or female flowers. In picture 10 this crest is extremely visible, and it almost looks like something is trying to grow out of it. But like I said, still a bit soon.

I don't take you for stupid bro, but I do take you for a stoner. lol. Forgetting to pH water for clones is a common mistake. Although you CAN root clones in water with no pH buffering, it takes too long, and you usually need an aerocloner for a good enough success rate.

Last night I went super old school with my cloning method. Please don't call me a blasphemer, but I used Miracle Gro (hurts to say it) Seed Starter mix. It is pH adjusted and has very very low amounts of Phosphorus to assist in rooting, and I put a little in some mini red party cups with drainage holes cut into them, I just got them real wet, put a hole in each one for the clone, and popped them in and put it under the dome. No heat pad, light fixture dedicated to them, they are just sitting in the corner getting residual light. I have way too many plants right now, and not enough light. I wish it would just rain t5's already.

I feel ya mayne. I am going to get rid of these 40w t12's immediately.. by that I mean as soon as I can afford the t5's. I was worried about the t5's beings a little hotter, but it probably wont matter once that 600 gets goin.

fuck these t12's.. they've been good to me so far, but this ac is flickerin them, so now i gotta run extensions to some other part of the fuckin house, and/or beef up my circuit breaker, which i dont wanna end up having to do next batch.

i was jk about the stupd thing

Day 52 of my first grow, and 4 out of 14 have survived. The onslaught of bad tap water, extreme over nuting, improper cloning techniques, and general lack of knowledge have really put my girls to the test.

Left alive are Megan Fox, Gunther, Emma Watson, and Morpheus. Three killing fields and a jackhammer, all from Sannies.

Almost getting to sexy time, and the one doing the best, by far, is Megan Fox. The most purple, most stinky (even in veg) and largest.. she better be a female, because I don't know if I can bring myself to kill her, if shes a dude. I plan on leaving the mothers in this dwc, and taking cuttings after I determine sexes.

The buckets will be for flower, I have 9, 5 gals in a 3'x3' tray. Hempy bucket set up, under a 600watt HPS with yield master II supreme reflector and hood. Using the tri-pack flora series from GH, CalMag from Botanicare, and SuperThrive with each res change.

Almost clone time. I think megan could be cloned if you used the hole branch, except maybe the very bottom 1/4 inch of the cut I wouldn't use to root out of.

Can you get a better close up on that last picture? Or can you still not see if anything has developed yet?

Thanks for stopping by herk!

Jo-sizzle, I will put some new pics up pronto for your analysizz.. I am still convinced that Megan is a girl, but the others I think are still stunted by the over-fert and bad tap, and have yet to pop their little balls or pubes out yet.

Ok, I am pretty bummed out now.. I think Megan is a dude. I knew it was too good to be true.. I spied this little sac looking thing on one side of her and couldn't stop taking photos after I saw it.

Megan Fffffffffoxxay :hump:
(Cue Hendrix solo)
I think you have a female bro. I'm just too turned on right now for it not to be a female. Give it a few days, but I'm pretty sure that is going to be a pretty pussy in a few days.

If that is a female you seriously have the champion of all KF3 mom's. No arguing about it.
