Thanks Bode! That was my next step if this didn’t work out. Building an aeroponics spray Cloner which is very similar for sure!
I’m glad yours worked well for you and I’m seeing a lot of positive videos of these working with and without rooting hormones so we shall see!

May 25Howdy everybody! What’s growin on! Happy Saturday and I hope your all enjoying the weekend so far!
Day-22
So first things first! These 20:1 CBD seeds from @DrSeeds popped a good tap root out last night so I planted them today into their new homes! I look forward to seeing them above ground soon soaking up some light!
Purple Gorilla Autoflowers...At Day 22 they have begun Preflowers. Both are about the same size currently and I’ll be tying them down later today. Let the training begin! I’m going to be using only LST on them to try a different approach with these autos.
Now my new bubble Cloner I made seems to be working great so far! After 24hrs I’m the Cloner these 3 critical+2.0 ladies are standing upright and perky. I’m excited to see the first roots in this Cloner!!
Speaking of the Critical+2.0 my 3 clones are getting big and are going to need a transplant soon. I’ll be putting them into 7gals vegging them for an additional 2 weeks to fill out the pots and then flip! I’m really happy with how they look right now and I’m eager to transplant and flip them over!
Finally the Wedding Cake ladies! Although #1/#3 are looking a bit rough I will bring them back to good health! (I hope!). The next round of feeding I’ll be increasing the MegaCrop slightly and adding in the first dose of SweetCandy for essential sugars, vitamins, and boosted energy reserves!
Wedding Cake #1 isn’t looking horrible just had a weird leaf Wrinkle. #3 looking the worst of the group...however she is looking better than yesterday so I’m hopefully with another good feed and some added nutrients she will turn around and take off like her sisters!
I plan to start the quadline tomorrow on most of my plants. Majority of them are ready and I’m eager to begin the training and see the response I get from these girls! I’ll be doing a detailed report of how I’m going to be searching for my mothers and what I’m going to be watching for!
If anyone has any input or helpful tips along the way please let me know as this is my first ever Pheno Hunt!
One Love and Stay Medicated!
Good Morning Dutch 
Your garden is looking great. Autos are growing fast!

Great update Dutch. I'd like to do a pheno hunt soon but as I've never done one before I can't really offer any tips other than take the ones you love most for whatever reason. The Orange Sherbet I'm growing appeals to me in a lot of ways. She's ticking a lot of boxes as a mothering candidate for me. Peace DutchieUpdate May 25

Thanks Beez! They are indeed growing fast and I wish they were a bit bigger before they started flowering but what can you do! As long as they pump out some premium buds I’ll be happy!Good Morning Dutch
Your garden is looking great. Autos are growing fast!
Sweet you definitely should do one Prof! So far I’m really enjoying it and I’m excited to see what a tent full of different strains looks like! I’m sure I’ll have my challenges ahead but I’m ready for it!Great update Dutch.

That’s my hopes to Penny! I think she’s just fussy right now but she will grow out of it soon enough! Shes just needing some extra pampering is all!

Looking good in the dutchman's garden. Hope that one wc smartens up for you.
I've begun some LST on my Northern Lights Auto, and broke down and did the node removal/topping to quad my Gelato... I'm away from home for the weekend but last check this morning she was looking perky and happy so hoping for a good attempt.
Have a knife day

Thanks Knife! Hope the Quadline works well for you! If she was perky still this morning she should be growing strong by the time you return! I just started my training today as well so lots of fun but I can see it getting to be a lot of work soon enough haha!

May 26Ayyooooo! What’s up everyone! It’s sunny and beautiful here today and when I woke up this morning I figured it was the perfect day to start the training of these beauties!
So as I have mentioned I am going to be Quadlining these. I want to give thanks to @Asesino85 again for this technique! I have chosen to use Pink Kush #3 as my example plant for this tutorial this time! Also some heavy root porn after just 8 days from transplant look at these already!!!!
So to start the quadline we need a strong healthy plant that is at least grown out to node 5.
I went through and did this to everybody except Wedding Cake #3 who is still on the recovery and not in the shape to begin training. Here’s a bunch of photos during the process today!
Everyone was due for a feeding today so I mixed up 2.25g/Gal of MegaCrop and added in 1g/Gal of SweetCandy. This should help give these girls an energy boost and encourage some extra strong rooting! Big Roots = Big Shoots = Big Buds!
The Results!
With all the topping, node removal and feeding being done I was thinking it would be nice to spread things out a bit so today I also moved the 3 critical+2.0 and purple Gorilla autos into the 4x4. I took the single SP-150 from my seedling tent and placed it in there to help them transition to the new lighting! I also watered them and tied down the PGa more!
I’m excited to see how all these girls respond to the quadline start and ill be sure to post a bunch of follow up photos tomorrow! I’ll be doing a write up on my process for selecting my soon to be mothers this evening so don’t miss it!
Stay Medicated friends!
Time to get their Quad on!

Now the real fun begins! Shouldn’t be long till I have to begin tying them all down and spreading them out!
Now the work begins you mean. Lol
Looking great Dutch! I've got some autos going finally so I'm back in the ballgame. I've been having training cravings.. lol.

Haha it’s definitely going to be some work but I can’t wait! I’ve been itching to get this Pheno Hunt rocking and here we go!
Hey Ase! Thanks! I’ll be stopping over to your place soon! Can’t wait to see how your autos turn out and I’ll be following along closely.
