Granny420 Grows Multiple Strains In Soil Using ViparSpectra XS1500 And Vivosun Tents

UPDATE: FIRST TWO CLONES TAKEN

I don’t know if they will make it cuz they are small, but I am attempting to root my first two Blueberry Cheese clones. We will see if I remember how! :cheesygrinsmiley:

I removed these shoots during my mini quad beginning. They are the largest shown below, taken with the 2nd node’s growth.
IMG_4898.jpeg


I placed them in water immediately after taking that pic, as shown below.
IMG_4899.jpeg


Making sure their stems were submerged,
IMG_4902.jpeg


Then I got out a seed starting tray with a wicking bottom that I have. Here are the different parts.
IMG_4903.jpeg

I inserted the wicking material which will keep the clones wet.
IMG_4905.jpeg

I then inserted the seed/cloning tray and filled up two places with soil for these clones.
IMG_4906.jpeg


I filled the lower reservoir with water and watered the soil completely.
I made a hole in each and added some rooting powder in it.
I then scruffed up all around the sides of the bottom of the stem, dipped in the Clonex, and inserted it into the hole, then pinching the soil around the stem (so no air).
What I used.

And how they look
IMG_4912.jpeg


And then they took their home, hidden in the corner of the grow tent. I covered them with the paper plate to keep the lights from being directly on them while they adjust to the trauma of being cut from momma.

I am sure I will be able to take further BBC clones along the way, but I hope these lil ones are the first!

That’s it outta me til later cuz hubby is wanting dinner!

Have a great day everyone!

UPDATE DISREGARD YESTERDAYS QUAD!
BETTER QUAD INFO HERE TODAY!!!

Yesterday, I began attempting my mini quad on 8 FB. I did NOT give proper instructions, so please disregard that message and read here with better info and pics.

What I did wrong: I thought the single leaf node did not count in quad. I’m not meaning the seedlings first oval leaves, the cotys - but the first real single leaf above it. That single leaf is the first node. Thus, I cut one too many nodes off. I’m sure it won’t effect the end product too much because I do still have the correct shape starting out.

But I got it right today with miz Blueberry Cheese today. Last night I cut her topping down one more node, so she is topped at the right place. Today I began her quad.

Here she was this morning, from the side.
IMG_4894.jpeg

If you look closely at her top, you can see I cut about a half inch above the node when I topped. :Namaste: quad’ers and the #quadsquad pros have already helped me by making sure I know to leave as much above the topping node as possible. I had read that and did do that right.

Again, thank you Scott!

Fo my first node cut today, I cut off the single leaf node and its shoots.
Here they are.
IMG_4897.jpeg


Then I cut the second node’s growth. Below is both the 1st and 2nd nodes leaves and growth cut off.
IMG_4898.jpeg


That is all I needed to cut. (Yesterday, I actually cut 3 node’s growth instead of 2)

So here is BBC#1’s insides after those 2 node’s growth was removed.
IMG_4911.jpeg

You can clearly see it has shoots coming out both the remaining 3rd and 4th nodes.

From above, you see this is a much better quad start. The fan leaves forming a cross + is exactly what one wants. And you can see there are 4 shoots in the center.
IMG_4910.jpeg

These four shoots will be LST’d when they get bigger.

For now, that is all I do until these 4 shoots grow a bit.

I hope that corrects my misinformation from yesterday! EEK! I figure even if I get it a bit wrong, at least I’m doing my best and learning how to do it right!

Hope everyone is having a beautiful Sunday!
Lovies!

Sorry M'dear, I missed that question.
Yes, I try to LST along the way when I can. I've had to do some super cropping to keep canopies even, but I have fun with it.
Absolutely loved your updates yesterday, and I'm "rooting" for the clones. Looks like you got it goin' on girl! :love: :love:

UPDATE

Still cleaning and sorting junk to make room for a flower tent. Sometimes I seem to be making more of a mess! I am making progress but I can only push my body so far each day. So I take a lot of breaks! :cheesygrinsmiley::yahoo:

I started quad on 3 of the younger plants
(1) Day 23 Fat Bastard and (2) Day Day 18 Blueberry Cheese
I won’t repeat the process here, but will compare girls here.

First, the Day 23 BBC #1 from yesterday. This girl looks real good for what a quad should look like. The process didn’t hurt her a bit.
IMG_4936.jpeg


Next is Day 18 BBC #2. She got a start at quad today and she also looks great.
IMG_4933.jpeg


And then, Day 23 FB #6. She also started quad today and looks great.
IMG_4934.jpeg


Above is how my first Day 23 (8) FBs SHOULD look with beginning quad, but I cut one node too many on these, which IMO set them back a tad. Node 3 had great shoots, but by cutting that node in error, i cut off shoots that should have looked similar to the above girls.

Instead, these first 8 will have to work longer to get their shoots started. I don’t think it will be too long tho. Below, you can see the difference.
Day 23 FB #3 two days after started quad wrong.
IMG_4942.jpeg



IMG_4938.jpeg


Then the whole group in the next two pics.
The right side with (7) FBs Day 23, 2 days after messed quad began.
IMG_4921.jpeg

And the left side girls. Only (1) BBC #4 has not started her quad. Mixed bunch here and pic taken before quad on 3 more girls.
IMG_4922.jpeg


Last, and littlest. The 2 BBC clones on their second day.

With that, todays update is finished!

Hope you are all having a funday Monday!:yahoo::cheesygrinsmiley::high-five:

Vivosun 2’x4’x5’ Grow Tent

Here I’m going to try to highlight what I love about my Vivosun 2’x4’ Grow Tent!

First, I’m using it to start plants. The Vivosun tent is fitting 13 plants currently and has been from their start.
It is light weight and can fit in so many small places.

I love all the vents in here. I will point them out in pictures below, but there are (2) 4” vents, (4) 6” vents, and (1) 8” vent. Perfect.

Here is the Vivosun 2’x4’x5’ Grow Tent from the front with the door closed.
Vivosun 2x4x5 Grow Tent Outside.jpeg

You can see a window in the front top, so you can peek at your girls without opening the door.

Vivosun 2’x4’x5’ Grow Tent from the outside looking into see through window open.

Then we will go inside the Vivosun Grow Tent, first looking to the upper right.
In the pic below, you can can see there is a 4” vent in the back, an 8” vent in the top, and a 6” vent in the side.
I will point out that each vent has two layers. When putting ducting in, you can make one layer stay inside the tent to cover the inside ducting while pushing the other outside to line the outside of the ducting coming in. That sure does make them light proof when you are done!

Vivosun 2x4x5 Grow Tent Inside Top Right.jpeg

Vivosun 2’x4’x5’ Grow Tent from the inside looking up to the top right showing vents from inside.
And you can see the 9” Vivosun AeroWave E9 Grow Tent Fan works beautifully in Vivosun Tents.
Currently, I have a humidifier entering that 6” vent, allowing the Vivosun Fan to circulate it. If needed, I also have a carb scrubber that can hang from the center bar to vent out that 6” vent.
Currently, I have my multi plugin strung thru the 4” vent in the top center of the back. Works wonderfully.

Next, the upper left side of the grow tent. This side has (1) 6” vent. If needed, I can change my current setup to pull air out that vent, I just don’t need to yet. Plenty of vents for all your needs tho, whether you are growing to flower, or starting plants.
This Vivosun Grow Tent also has a nifty two-sided pouch at the top. I find it perfect for keeping my instruction books and accessories to installed items, as well as for storing extra things like scissors, etc. These pouches are very handy and are placed in an out of the way area. Nice touch.

Then let’s go to the bottom left where you will see another 6”vent. I have both the left 6” vents (top and bottom) open to allow air out. It can be used however anyone wants tho!

Next, we go to the bottom right side. Here, I currently have a 6” duct which goes out to an in-line fan which is pushing air conditioned air into the Vivosun tent. I have it curved up to push cooler air flow across my lights and to circulate air movement in the tent.
There is also a rectangular velcro vent on both lower sides which can be opened if you need further air flow.

Simply the Vivosun Emblem that is on all of the inside of the grow tent.

I love the size, it can grow multiple starters like I am growing, or it can grow two nice flowering plants. It’s light weight, yet sturdy enough to hold fairly heavy equipment, like lights and carb scrubbers.

The Vivosun Grow Tent also has many nice features, like those nifty pouches and a variety of vents and vent sizes. This makes it very versatile for different uses.

That ends my Vivosun 2’x4’x5’ Grow Tent highlights! I am loving this tent and so do my girls!

Well hello Tuesday! :woohoo:

I am making great progress in my junk/precious items cleaning. It is horrible how much stuff can be accumulated when the years go by… my sewing things, tons of pictures with albums and crafting things, mushroom growing stuff, old tax boxes, all my old grow things like my huge HPS lights…so much to sort thru. EEK!

My girls are all doing wonderful. Staying green and growing. Clones still look great. Not much to report on them. I’m thinking about tomorrow they should be thirsty again. But or today, they were just peaceful girls that didn’t need me. :yummy:

Hope everyone and their girls are healthy and safe.:green_heart:
