Shadowman's First Grow

My guess? To re-veg them?

I would not recommend that choice.

Clones take 6/26 would now be two weeks old and started with veg state hormones.
Clones taken now are two weeks younger and will take a week or two to resettle their hormones back to veg hormones.
If one waits until the clones have stretched in flower one now has even younger clones that are still full of flower hormones AND are leggier.

might be useful to prove a point if compared to clones taken earlier, other than that? .....

I suppose flowering clones taken from low branches and replanted in the flower room might have better yield than those branches would have had on the plant IF they get better light that way

Now that's an interesting thought, but I think your right they would need the extra light to do well.
 
Shadow what do you think about these wonderful summertime temps? I can't remember a summer in middle July to get consistent daytime temps of 84 for the high and 68 for the low. I've actually been shivering at 5:30 a.m. for the last 6-8 days along with the low humidity and mild highs in the middle to high 80's have me flabbergasted. I'm definitely enjoying it. I'm just kind of sad that I can't grow outdoors because these temps would be absolutely perfect this year.
 
A flowering clone drops roots a lot quicker than a clone taken from a vegging plant. You can either replant and let it keep flowering, or you can re veg it.

The flowering clone I took had visible roots in less than a week. I started it on Veg nutes, and now she is vegging away....

Hey Cannabis 1, I'm going to put her back in veg also and when Medi is done with the tent, I'm going to put the two I have back into flower along with some from the veg box.

The main reason I'm taking a couple of clones off a flowering plant is because it will be deemed a non-producer if left to flower out. why throw it in the trash if I can play around with it and produce an instant girl.
 
Lol @ instant girl.... That was funny.. I have a couple budded clones in re-veg now.. Doensnt hurt to experiment and see what you can do

Maybe one day it will be legal everywhere and we can all grow indoor and out. If I had some privacy I would already be doing it but that's not the case.
 
All is good on this end.... Just changed a couple things in the grow. We'll see if it's for the better. Well it has to be better than rootrot and root bound... We'll see

shadow I've been meaning to ask you where you got your watering trays under your pots? I need to get a couple and those look perfect.

Hey my friend, I got those at the home dummy, they are a little pricey there, you'll find better prices online. I only got the 2 so I'll be ordering more for the extra pots I just got. For the smaller 1 gal pots I'm using old pie tins. just an idea to get creative if you can't buy new. Talk with you later.
 
Hello My Friends, Just a quick update before I go to the grill pit, I want get some backyard cooking in before the heat hits us around noon. This quickie is just the flower tent. The pistils are multiplying everyday and on the 18th I'll be defoliating and removing non- producing branches and making a couple of flowering clones. I'll also be starting on the renovation on the new grow room starting tonight when both veg and flower lights are on so I don't have to worry about light leaks. I'll be posting photos of that later on. Watered Medi with Bloom+ nutes yesterday. She took 72oz. She's ready for her hair cut. Here's a few photos of the pistils. Have a Great Day everyone.

Medi Day 17 in flower

I almost forgot, I'll have 2 UVB CFL bulbs here first of next week to throw on Medi and get some resin production going. I had to order them online, the lamo pet shops around me didn't carry the cfl screw in version and I didn't want to buy a whole new light fixture. So that's it for now and I'll have a update later with project photos. "Keep The Green Side Up" Y'all.

Don't mean to be pushy, but I didn't see them at the 2 HD's by me. What part of the store did you find them in, nursery? If so I'll have to look closer.
 
Looking good Shadow :thumb:
 
Medi's looking lovely Shadow ;) I'm sure she'll thank you for the extra lights though :goodjob:
