Thursday update for y'all! Couple of odds and ends...
Starting with the root-pruned Sour G, which is not dead yet :
Here is the Jack Herer 1.1 clone, due for some serious thinning this weekend:
And last, I'm testing some stronger iso/alcohol water mix on my flowering Doug's Varin (flip day 22). I sprayed a lower branch that will be coming off in the post-stretch thinning to see if a 2:9 mix of 70% iso and water has any negative effects:
I want something stronger than 1:9 because I'm not sure it's all that effective, but I will want to test this on the leaves and pistils, and then later on in flower to see if it will melt trichomes, as alcohol does. I've seen recommendations of straight 70% iso but I won't be testing that!
If anyone is interested in figuring out dilution strength for anything, this site will do it for you easy peasy:
Here is a screenshot of my 2:9 calculation for 70% isopropyl alcohol (totaling 11 liters in the Volume After Dilution box):
You check the box you want it to calculate and fill in the others. And no need to change the liters to ounces or ml because the ratios will stay the same as long as you're using the same measure for the iso and the water.
That's the peek into my garden this morning. I hope all is well with you and yours.

You need to watch more comedy specials (I recommend John Mulaney) so your dog gets used to sounds of your levity!Wow, answers to all! Well, sort of. Lmao. You're hilarious. I was about to write, damn, that was a pretty easy clue about the Beatles, but then I noticed the +/- sign. I literally laughed out loud in my garage at that and my dog came over to see who I must be communicating with.
Thanks sb! Sorry yours didn't take. Warmth plays a big part in my cloning operation, and cuttings in flower tend to be harder to root to begin with.The 20 branch clone looks good , I have taken clones in flower but didnt work out i think they were to cold or small ?
