When I do flip I’ll be planting the last six strains I haven’t grown so far.

A few pics.
one puzzling thing is that OG Kush is so tall! Was not expecting that.

Was that a reveg?
Also, how long do you keep your clones under the red domes? I've never seen anyone do it that way so I'm curious.

MH1 is the only reveg I have that made it. I also have a clone of her (and a clone of the clone to keep it going). Two branches on one side of the reveg did not generate any new growth for some reason.
OG Kush is from seed from Reserva Privada (DNA Genetics).
The domes were just a way to keep the clones in relative darkness to encourage root growth. So since I needed a dome and darkness anyway this kills two birds with one cup. I keep them that way until they root well enough to take the dome off. I've had to work on getting the moisture of the soil right so it isn't too much - I've killed a few off that way. My heater is also close by and I think that's had an ill effect as well so I'm working on getting my method perfected. It has been otherwise difficult to find a dark place in the tent without causing other problems with the placement of the heater. This is my way to mitigate that problem.
While I'm confessing, I've had an issue with some of the soil being too compacted and have been working to get it actively broken up so the roots have an easier time stretching out. Compacted soil is hard to water properly.
I am close to ordering some nematodes to finish off fungus gnats and any whiteflies that might remain. In the meantime I'll spray again with neem this weekend before the flip.
When I was in soil I added a lot of perlite to a mix that already had perlite!
I keep a dim light on my clones 24/7. It's a 23w CFL just above the clear domes with a piece of copy paper between them.

For some reason I thought they needed a relatively dark place to begin with.
In my travels, you are the only one I've seen go this route, but if it's working for you I'm not here to dissuade you!

Saw this referenced on a couple of journals and went searching for confirmation.
Rest in peace, subcool (Dave Bowman). Thanks for the kind words when I was getting started on this adventure way back last April. Just a few emails back and forth but it was appreciated.

Sprayed with neem last evening. Going to give it to tomorrow to move them back in the tent. It's flower time, boys and girls.

The flower tent is chock full now and tomorrow begins the first day on 12/12.
Veg tent looks almost empty.
Tonight's soundtrack was The Phil Collins Big Band with Pick up the Pieces. Some great saxophone play on that one. Where the hell has James Carter been all my life?! Damn!

Your flower tent looks full and ready to pop! Your veg tent looks denuded!
I look forward to seeing your veg tent full of flowers again!

This is (part of) why I love 420. Stripped? No, not descriptive enough. Bare? Dull. Denuded? Oh, yeah...just right.
Lots of clones in there, though I expect a couple to expire (which is OK so long as it's not wedding cake). I'll be planting new seeds within a week of the 6-7 strains I haven't grown out yet (not counting the seeds that were shared with me locally).
Looks like we are ready for another great show Al!

Thanks, Van Stank. Glad to have you.
Those plants are so ready to flower! Good thing you have the headroom
