BigIrishDoode, Xlr8, Thanks for the rep!
Okay, after reading up on cloning from various sources, I gave up on the two that were started as an afterthought they're compost. I waited too long and it will only give me heartache if I keep trying to save them.
There is a bright side to all this. I did some rearranging, added another HO T5 to the array, and went by my not-so-local collective. I say not so local because I do not live in Sacramento proper and have to drive 12 miles to get to my new collective. I'm upset at this, because there were 44 in Sacramento county that were shut down. I had a choice of 4 within 10 blocks of me. Sacramento County is constantly barraged with people that think collectives sell to kids or anyone that walks in and got all 44 shut down with the exception of 5 in Sacramento proper, and those are under the watchful eye of the authorities.
Anyway, sorry about that... I went by my collective today and found my ultimate happy moment for the week:
Greek Kr@ck clones $10
*Hereafter referred to as GK for the forum rules bit, and to keep me from actually spelling it out and getting banned.
I got one for flower and one to keep in my mommy bin.
They had VERY nice root systems, so I have no reservations about putting them into the starter nutes I'm currently running in this flower test. 5ml each of Grow, Micro, Bloom per Gallon for the next week or so to get the clones ready for next step up in nutes. This is a happy surprise after the hit to my confidence I took today, damn near shook me to the core. Meh, it is my first hydro bloom ever, so I knew it would be a rocky one, but those were purples!
So, I get these babies home, and start to free the root ball, and was happy to fine that they were started in Gro-Dan Starter Cubes! YAY! So I wash the dirt off in a SUPERThrive bath to keep from shock.
They have a VERY nice root system established already. Vegged about 5 weeks from the looks!
Here she will live out the rest of her short life. For the next 8-9 weeks, she will enjoy bright light, tasty water and nutrients, and cool breezes. What more could a plant ask for. Not to be chopped? She would die after the flower anyway. This is just an early end to keep her from suffering. Besides, when her life ends, she will not be forgotten, I will smoke in her honor, and her sister will give many daughters after her. All in the pursuit of controlling migraines.
These are, for the simple fact that the help WAY more than pharmaceuticals ever did, are held in equal regard to my purples for the insomnia.
Can you imagine not sleeping for 7 days with a sledgehammer pounding inside your head the whole time? Just lying there, awake, and in pain, nauseated so bad if you roll over you.... well I'll not go there. The Mother gave us the medicine, it should be legal to have/grow/consume it in this country.
<Gump>That's all I've got to say about that.
i am green with envy! shoot i live about that far from any form of civilization!! much less a disp or collective, i do it all by mail , i wish you could have emailed em to me! lol i'd consider giving my left nut for a kens cut!! lol j/k i would not mind giving them the time they need to root, but thats me, of course in your position with a mother i might have done what you did too, i get migraines too not fun by any measure, do you get the warning light/aura ? i get that about 30 min before the nuke hits its a very horrible half hour full of foreboding impending doom feelings, and scrambling for pills/herbs/a dark place to lay down etc. fortunately since i started using cannabis i dont get them very often,unless i run out, i have had a bunch the past 6 weeks, i defo feel your pain! the new upgrades are great, i started working on a new veg area today 2x2x4,washed out some old coco, painted some new hempy 2 liters getting ready for my new upcoming mini clone army/breeding project, so i will have 4 possible areas to grow now, the cardboard box will prolly be for breeding or give it to spiffy she needs it more than i. yes i agree with about the legality of this herb, should have never been illegal but i believe it will be legal again and i dont think its that far off
