420's West Hippie Grows A Candy Kush Mother Plant - Plus Some Squishing Rosin

02/04/2023 Saturday
Not much going on except clones. Still haven’t decided which two I’m keeping yet. The ones that were three weeks old yesterday some got a new home . I got a little careless and knocked the main root loose on one but I put her back with yesterday’s clones and let her start over .

Mama’s a little twisted ph was out of site water temp was off plus 8 more clones yesterday.
 
Oof on the roots! Keep track of that one and see if it re-roots faster or slower than the first time and the others it's in with.

Will do , just marked her . Funny how some have more finer roots like the first batch of clones . This bunch had thicker roots only difference was dropped the water temp to 75f from 78f .

Wished I’d kept some clones longer , I need to match two hopefully sooner than too much later. Just some pics today . Mama Candy needs to get under the T-8 this , Goliath light has given me a tremendous amount of clones to take off . She’s still a drinking a gallon a day wiping the nutrients out in four days .
Had another Lowe’s bucket spring a leak and it would be under the shelf and table , more unnecessary work.

Sorry about the flood. :(

Also, we really need to stop calling that huge thing a mother plant just because you take clones from it. It's about the size of the plants you flip at this stage! T8's for sure. :eek:

Beautiful. You said Another Lowe’s bucket springs a leak? How does that even happen?

I've got a few Lowes buckets that developed cracks on the bottom. (leaked) I cut the bottoms completely out, and use them making bubble hash with the filter bags. Just not the bottom one. :oops:

Six days and rerooting has begun. This is the one I lost the root on. I did say I believe at one point I quit using any root enhancer since the first week. 31 more clones to go .

Mama Candy roots has filled the bucket so tight I have to hold the bucket with my feet. Change of plan mama gets to take on the Goliath, I’m going to spread her out and do some mega super cropping. The mh/hps gets the girl in the back . Mama is 10 weeks old yesterday, another 3-4 weeks then flip .

I’ve just been changing the buckets out every two days to keep her happy 1-1/2 gallons a day.
I put the little girls on PB nutrients @ 100% , no issues.
The biggest in the back gets the mh/hps, I’m lsting the top for the catch up process.
Yes there is going to be another mother off mama I see 60 + for clones
Whoa the tote I bought is a 27 gallon , still plenty room for roots . Who says you don’t up pot on a hydro ?

Finally off my lazy a 02/12/2023
Mama Candy got out of hand , a foot on each side of the bucket so I could get her out . It started Friday fighting me getting her out of the bucket. So the tote I thought was a 30 gallon without reading the tag , it’s a 27 , no problem. The tote only held 15 usable gallons, 1-1/2”s below the basket. She fought back big time as I spread her out

Z7 repair
Big girl doesn’t like the move to the 600w mh . Her roots are muck looking Z7 to the rescue. Instead of surrounding mama I figured I needed to get them under the mh . Plus mama candy is spread out in a 4’x4’ , no net yet .
Time to turn the bbq and get ready for the game .
Have a great Sunday everyone.

Got mama candy in place . Added the net over her , but still slowly spreading her out .

Poor mama candy has taken more abuse. She tried pushing through the net on her own .

New mama is on PB nutrients, she was laid over . I guess not enough bubbling going on. One flush of the nutrients had her standing in 30 minutes.
TDS 892 ppm water level 0 water temp 74.9 ph 6.1 adjusted to 5.8
It’s silica (bio-si) must be like pro-tekt raises the ph . I think I’ll use MSA instead next round and see if that’s what made the ph rise.

Thanks Mayne , I went and just checked mama candy was worried I’d really put the hurt on her but she’s back standing. Luckily I did I forgot to put the cloner dome back on .
