GiGaBaNE's 3rd & Final Journal - At Least Until I Change Country

Hi guys
just wanted to reveal a sneak peek into my life a moment.

I have taken some pictures the other day (a few before my batteries died) and i will post them as soon as i can, but my 420 time has been better spent replying in other threads.

As to my 420 time, its running a little short at the moment.
I think i have mentioned before that i run a guild on a game called everquest...yeah i know its just a game, blah blah, lol....but there are now 90 people that look directly to me for leadership and assistance and im overwhelmed as we are still expanding almost exponentially.
soon i will be able to spot who out of my people are likely cadidateds for promotion and my workload should reduce a little again.
i dont see it as a game much any more, but a social center which i run and its my duty to keep my peeps content, lol


quick verbal update.

indica is ok, not a lot of growth recently, but ive taken 2 clones and hopefully they will stick with my new method of cloning.
my 1st clone from a sativa is now stating to produce a little growth. YAY

my normal sativa is ok, but has some sort of illness i havnt encountered before, a few areas of dmage that look more like they hae been melted by acid more than they look like nute burn or heat burn oO, will post pics later.

my 'monster' sativa that fell behind because i dropped it is doing well. i decapitated the entire plant except the 2 bottom nodes when i went into water cloning, all of which rotted =( tommorow i will take 2 more from it and it will at this stage become a 4 top from 2 top plant...hhoping it will do what i want =)
 
cant wait to seeum gig! glad to hear the clone is getting its grow on:bravo:
 
@GiGa, i been playing grepolis, ever heard of that game,
 
liking your grow so far gigabane I was hoping to see roots growing off of a branch, are gonna try again to clone using that method? Your camera sounds like mine batteries dying all the time drives me crazy. :thumb:

Yes i will definatly try again. it will be a while. now i just need to get into the business of making as many clones as i can from tops.

everything seems to be going in slow motion at the moment.

i get to make 2 more clones today, but then i expect it will be another week till i can do more...however at least with my topping plant it should go 2 clones 4 clones 8 clones e.t.c =)

once i have my sea of green up and running i can come out to play with all sorts of experiments =D
 
19-08-12 (day 50 - veg)

Catch up update.

I know its been a long time in coming but here we go, will be doing another update soon after this one.

As you will see, i have stripped both sativas now to feed my clone stocks.
I have not touched the indica beyond the cut i did previously to top it and take some clones, it will be going into flower soon. started LST on it to fit my flower cupboard (for just the indica).

As of last night i have switched to GLR! more than any other reason, we have had a helicopter roaming above my area for severl days now. lights off at night cant be thermaled =D


i have discovered that if you use these pots. 50/50 perlite for the big ones, but you should probably use 50/50 vermiculite instead for the little ones as they dry out WAY too fast =(

my clone that took, in the silver mini air pot is producing warped leaves, they look sgraggly and very this. wondering if its the over dryness thats causing it =/

My next update will be of 1 indica and 1 sativa, both topped (in different places) and both now using LST and GLR. lets see how much difference it makes.

th 2 in pink pots are afghan clones, all others are the delahaze =)


 
got it goin on Gig, I've been messin with glr with my clones. they have been doing pretty good.
main reason for me is that I dont have a completely dark space for my veg and flower at the moment. so I am sharing a room with my flower. I do have them seperated, the clones are in a closet and the girls are in my homade tent. but the light seal isnt perfect.
but I have hung a blue tarp over the closet door, I spay glued some garden shield over the tarp so all you really see is a blue glow from the closet.
prattle over
 
have you noticed any roots yet on the edges of your pots, i want to know if they will work the same as the air pots, in theory they should do as its the same method, if anything i can see it working slightly better, watering would be an issue but i think if you sprayed the plants to water them or watered them slower then this shouldnt be a problem, you could even water them from the bottom by standing them in a bucket,

they water fairly easy, i have an adjustable sprayer jet/mist. i spray the outside before i water and it sort of seals it to stop it all running away. Havnt seen roots on the silver one yet, but it is growing foliage and doesnt need the dome any more.

the new foliage is warped tho so there is some problem, just not sure what yet.

the bottom watering is actually part of the plan when i have enough, just gonna put the lot in a mini pool and use a flood and drain method to water all at once...square pots would be more efficient tho. =/
 
i wouldnt worry about the clone i had had 2 like that in the past and got 2 like it at the minute, mine started to grow like that just after they rooted but give it a couple of days and it will be back to normal, i had 1 clone grow leaves that look like the seed leaves and it sorted itself out, so as long as its not a nute problem just make sure its not over or under watered and it should start to pick up, when i put my clones strait into a pot with a small dome over the top the leaves start doing what yours is, but as soon as the dome is taken off they start to sort themselves out and within a few days they are growing as normal
