UPDATE #10
White Widow & Bubbleicious - Day 31
Loveryder & Jack Herer - Day 5
Big Bud & Pure Power Plant clones - Day 2
AUTOS SURFACING & TAKING CLONES
In the main-room, everything is going according to schedule. They're clearly thriving under the Mars Pro II lamps. Two lamps seems to be the perfect setup for this room. Keeping the environmental factors under control has been easy so far this run. Both strains are starting to fill out the net now. A couple of weeks more vegg time and we should be ready for flowering - I hope
Maybe a little optimistic? The plants look very healthy. Except for the Bubbleicious that was slightly stunted. The leaves on that one look kinda weird, but it seems new growth look normal. Think I'm gonna keep my eyes open for male parts on that. I know that strain have a tendency to go hermie so that may be one of those suckers.

Bubbleicious - Day 31
In the mother-tent everything is looking great. I have some amazing news! All 3 autos have surfaced. In theory they're all supposed to be ready for harvest in 8 weeks, but I don't believe it until I see it. A little hard to see on this photo because they're still so tiny. Loveryder is supposed to be a dwarf, so that's gonna be fun to watch develop.

I cut 10 clones from Big-Bud and Pure Power Plant yesterday. Not 100% sure what to do with them, but I think I want to keep a few of them for next round. If I get my hands on a second tent I'll do a scrog with those strains in that one. I also want to use a few clones to make feminized seeds with colloidal silver. I see they sell it on the health-shop. PPM 13 the label says. I read somewhere that 10-15 PPM is supposed to do the trick. This project however also requires a second tent so I can isolate the plants with male parts from the rest.
I put them in a quite big RootIT growhouse I bought, filled the bottom tray with vermiculite and water pH'ed to 5,8 and then put it on top of a heatmat. I put the heatmat on a timer - 15 min on, 15 min off. Or else the clones would get cooked and die. So far temps are good, but I see they're still raising, so I may have to put the timer on 15 min on and 30 min off. Will keep a close eye on that the following hours. The clones look a little sad, but that's to be expected. I can see they're all stretching towards the light, so they're all alive.

After I took this photo, the temps have raised to 26.0 degrees. If the temp raise more I will change the heatmat settings.
Guess that's all for today. Not sure how fast I can get my hands on a second tent. Kinda low on cash these days.
Over and out
