Pineapple Chunks is a 50/50 This is one of the strains I am growing this year.
I have grown Pineapple chunk andPineapple Chunks is a 50/50 This is one of the strains I am growing this year.
it! I am not sure how much we are allowed to talk about buying seeds, so I will wander back over to your journal and see where you got them!
Thanks!
I got my Pineapple Chunks from Barneys, and they are a sponsor and that is a good thing.

You can quadline a clone, if that's your question. That's mostly what I do.
Not quite the symmetry you get from a seedling but they work fine.

Question for you guys growing autos in sips. Do you guys top water first. My last auto was in the sip and it was a small plant.
Hmmm.. I could try that!
I would appreciate if you could guide me to a post # where you talk about it? So I don't have to go thru the whole journal again! lol
It took over 3 hours just to admire all the photos, and 1/2 a roll of paper towels for the drool!

I "charge" the ProMix HP with a gallon from the top before transplanting my solo cup seedlings.
Once they get going I top off the reservoir every day and roughly every third or fourth day water from the top until the reservoir is full.
Cheers, eh ?
Here's a link to where he mentioned it ,I just used the search function at the top right.

You spelled it wrong and it still worked! Thanks @Absorber .Quadline clones and I chose in this forum and by Azimuth

Clones still produce nodes in pairs, but in alternate rather than opposite fashion so I try to pick two pairs that are relatively close together, then hold down the high ones to let the lowers catch up.
If you hold the tips of the uppers below those of the lowers it tricks the plant into thinking the lowers are now the dominant ones and sends more growth hormones to them.
Then I Supercrop the limbs and weight them down with fishing weights to hold them horizontal until they get to the pot edge and then let them grow up.
I have to admit, I do the
the symmetry! But then again, I haven't grown too many Pretty plants! lolPretty HUGE.... YES!
But not Pretty!

I am going to give it a go this summer!
I appreciate the idea!
I probably spelt it right the first time i searched,that photo was only for visual purposes I didn't use that to search I'd already found it

Well, either way it was much appreciated!I probably spelt it right the first time i searched,that photo was only for visual purposes I didn't use that to search I'd already found it
Have we come up with a general consensus of how to start seeds for a sip?
I have 2 with tails that need to go in soil tonight.
I’m thinking drill some holes in the bottom of a solo cup, and once they get a couple leaves, set em in a tray of water?

I use a mini sip that @Azimuth came up with

Growers choice for sure, but I like the small plant/small SIP combination to start as it's easier to control the watering early. You can still over-waterer them in a SIP, especially early and the smaller containers help you control that.
I use a clear cup inside an opaque one so I can keep track of the progress of the roots.
