Pics cut

I hate you motherfucker :grinjoint:
Fantastic, really fantastic!!
+ep my friend, you're a lucky man.

Those clones look amazing. I'm finding out the hard way how important the health of the mother plant is to the success of the clones.

Thanks man. I have no real secret. I try to pick a nice hardy female for the job and keep in FFOF soil. Feed maybe every 4 waterings or so some FF GB and Cal-mag. 20ml and 3ml per gallon. Pretty much did the same with my previous GWS mom. I occasionally need to go in and thin out the fan leaves.

Thank you my Italian friend :)
 
Dang. Your grow is a picture of calmness and good planning. To be able to balance all those strains and keep everything so even is plain awesome! And of course they all look to be in perfect health. Great clinic so far.

I'd rep you if I could.
 
Wowz Mcbudz. Girls look top of the line bro. Nice long colas too. Thats exactly why your one of the big doggs lol. One day I'ma get it down and be half as good.. if im lucky :rofl: ;)


awesome job McBudz!

Hey McBudz,
Thanks for all the great info. I am getting ready to start my first indoor grow. Are you using only fluorescent lights for the veg? I'm going to attempt a perpetual grow like yours on about half scale.

yes sir only floro for veg. I use 1 23w cfl for my ezcloner. after 10 days from cut i have enough roots for veg. veg is a home made ebb/flood table under a 2ft x 6 bulb 6500K floro T5HO fixture. Id love to have a 2ft VHO T5 but there does not seem to be one yet.
 
7 weeks 2 days for right side. Tomorrow will be 4 weeks for the left side.

Right starte flush with clearex yesterday

Didnt get a pic of the nemesis mom but I may have to take cuttings and throw away just to keep her downsized. it is so bushy and all the branches are getting soo thick.

I'm keeping these three moms around until I determine mine and my patience favorite strain. Then the others may get flowered out if I feel like it or just trash them. Once I get rid of one or some I have some chocolope seeds I want to mom out and have fun with.

Also have a small 2ft 4 bulb t5ho coming to help the mothering situation in the meantime.
:woohoo: almost harvest time :)
 
it's beautiful as always...
Do you see a significant improvement in quality of finished buds in keeping the Moms? I've been wondering why people don't just clip a few clones off late veg plants, then sending plants off to flower and clones off to cloner... repeat as necessary. It just seems simpler, however, I realize older plants are supposed to produce more THC? is that the dealio?
 
This grows' variety is sure to please
Even a jaded smokers' needs
All look so fine, not one empty tease
Buds of beautiful Meds at your knees

So many strains, so little time
A run that's mono's a SOG of the kind
Like mowing your lawn you prune your Bonsai
Again she'll be a star that will shine

Ive cloned both ways, 1 is from a dedicated mom and the other from a plant going to flower. I've cloned vegging clones and flowering clones this way. All with great results. I've gone as far as 5 or 6 generations deep and saw no decrease in potency.

CLoning flowering clones does take longer for the plant to revert back to veg though.
 
Man those buds are looking good. From post #226; How do you thin out fan leaves?

2 ways.. pick through the plant and prune out by hand... or dont water the plant and bring it to near death. The plant will pull moisture from the fan leaves to the growth shoots. Eventually the fan leaves will be unrecoverable. Then water and bring the plant back to life. Most of the fan leaves will die and fall off and you will have all growth shoots with only the baby fan leaves surviving.

I've done this a few times by accident, traveling and not being back in time to water. Plant looked rough but with water the best parts came back.
 
Damn McB someday I want to be one of your patients!!! The nemesis is looking very pleasing to the eye, I can only imagine how it smells and tastes!! Cant wait to see ya break out the chocolope man!

Got another smaller 2ft T5 fixture coming to help me with the Mom situation. Once I get it in action I'm going to sprout a chocolope bean. I'm just now seeing how my Nemesis mom clones are doing in flower for the first time. Seem to be a bit behind so maybe this is a longer flowering pheno like the rock locks. Next batch is all from the mom. I hope they start filling out or I'm gonna be nervous about that next batch of clones in line for flower.

The PE doesn't look like a huge yielder at least from the one plant that is finishing up now. We'll see how the clone on the left side does and the fresh cuttings that will backfill the left side. maybe going into flower a bit larger will make a bigger difference.

Blue Widow has nice hard dense buds that fill out pretty nicely. The rocklock in the front has the largest dense cola of all the plants just not a fan of the huge stretch and possible overall length of bloom.

Choco is suppose to be a great yielding plant
