Hey,Chef-The video won't run-I just get that "spinny thing"in the center of it....
Could be my wonky internet...Frontier Communication's slogan should be -"Use Us-We're Randomly Intermittent!"

It's hosted on Vimeo, so there shouldn't be a problem. Gotta be a Frontier problem.

You're probably right..I'll try it again a little later...

Looking really good Crazychef, I love that you got all your testing equip featured.

Hey! It's been a couple days, so here's the growth so far on Day 18 from dry seeds. Also tried a new video - this time with my cell phone. It definitely came out a bit better than my last attempt at a video.

Lookin' like it's almost time to top the GA#2, AOxH, and the PSM. Thinking I might just leave the GA#1 to develop "au naturale" to see how the natural main cola looks. The other three I plan on manifolding.

Looking great crazy chef I'll take a chair and see how these go
Nice healthy shade of green to them nice work pal
Feel free to check out my journal I've got some nice genetics on the go

Kind regards bb78

 

[CrazyChef]

Cool, I'll check it out right now. Thanks!

 

[CrazyChef]

Okay, so I went ahead and topped all 4 plants.

GA#2

Decided I'd try to get a couple of clones if possible. The top of the GA#1 was too small to even try, but I'm hoping the other 3 will root. Using Clonex gel and Jiffy Pots.

Great pictures, if the growing thing doesn't work out, you can always do photo work......

Dude, that's a great compliment! Hopefully I can do both!

 

[CrazyChef]

Well, it's been 6 hours and the cuttings seem to be doing okay so far. No wilting. I've shown a pic of the GA#1 cutting to show the current "wilt factor" to compare the cuttings to.

I forgot to mention that I also cut a huge hole in the bottom of each solo cup. I did the cup inside the cup trick to hold all the soil in until I was ready to transplant into the final pot. When I did the transplant at 12 days there were already roots coming out of the bottom of the inner cup.

I'm changing my mind for the next grow. I won't be doing this again. It kind of stunted the growth of the seedlings some. Next time I'll let the seedlings grow for about three weeks and then just do it normal transplant from the Solo Cup to my final pot.

[Carcass]

Jeez-I don't check in for a few days,and you chop their heads off....

They're all looking happy,Chef....Hope the clones work out...If they do,you'll definitely have a "full shelf.
2 more cookie sheets on there should just about do it...

 

[CrazyChef]

Yup, hoping they all take root. If so, then I'll have to sub out the 2 cookie sheets for some sort of 2x4 tub.
