hello V! final post on this thread...i've kept the plants alive and have been feeding them they are starting to green up nicely, especially #3. however, i'm going to shut them down for a couple of reasons.
mostly, because i've learned a lot from messing with them, but i believe they are too far gone for a rookie like me to turn them into a worthwhile grow. in your hands, they probably would've done well, but that's not where they were.
in the process of working with them and you and reading this site, i have learned a great deal and my confidence is much stronger than it was...i am still growing 9 clones that i took from flowering clones....mostly to see what would happen and how they would grow and in working with them i still make mistakes, but i feel more empowered to diagnose and recover from those mistakes and my toolbox has expanded so much and i have you to thank for that! the time that you spent with me on this journal has made a huge difference in my knowledge base.
another consideration is that i need to have everything shut down and cleaned up in my attic by 20 june, so for the next two months i'm going to focus on these 9 clones that i just put into flower today, and let the 3 patients go.
seriously, i went from kindergarten to sixth grade in learning to speak cannabis over these past 3 or 4 months, so a big huge
and sincerely
