These are my 2nd attempt at cloning. My first attempt was about 75% successful. From those first clones, I took 8 more. This time I used an Octocloner aeroponic 8 site clone bucket($50 on HTG). After 8 days, they all had beautiful 3-4" masses of roots growing, so I potted them in Dr. Earth Seed starter potting mix soil. Here they are the day after potting:
That's 3 Pineapple express, 4 Blueberry, and 1 White Widow.
So after 3 weeks, I picked the 4 best plants and moved them into 5 gallon Plant Warrior pots, which I love!
Soil is Pro Mix Ultimate organic with about 25% perlite added.
Here's the tent exactly 27 days since cutting the clones from their mothers:
The 4 big ones are 3x Pineapple express, 1 blueberry.
The humidity dome is 4x Serious Seeds AK-47 fem. I germinated them in the cubes and they all sprouted taproots overnight! So in the tent they go (I know, I'm dangerously low on space)!!
I am a huge fan of LSTing, so the big ones have already been bent over 2-3 times. I won't be LSTing the little ones, they can just make 1 cola each and save space.
I am using a 1000 watt MH bulb turned down to 50% and it works better than t5's for me. The temps are set at 75 degrees, but sometimes hover closer to 80. I'm awaiting a full line of Earth Juice nutes, and I will be bubbling everything to make tea with some $5 air stone/pumps from Wal-Mart. The mothers all had Fox Farm, but I am going organic this time around!
