Gee, what were you testing for with the clones? It is hard to see those going to the worms, but hey ho.

I wanted some clones to see if I could get a swicky-cup in a jar to root a clone, in hope the clone would be swicky or sippy trained right from 1st rooting.
GreenJean was asking some clone stuff so I figured I would cut the big ones in the Kloneking as well to show 2 styles, plus I don't know if the swicky-cup clones will work out.
So far the swicky cups are too wet but I have that corrected so hopefully we see roots in a few more days.
The Kloneking works better on large tops and soil on the smaller branches.
In my flower tent I have room for 4 plants. Right now I have the mother plant in a 10gal swicky, the mutant in a 7gal swicky, and the one large clone in a 10gal swicky.
I want the 4th to be a soil clone. I may pot 1 more in a 7gal swicky as well.
I have 6 more clones rooting in soil and 5 more in the kloneking.
Worms gotta eat to ya know!

I'm not sure if the Mutant is male or female hence the possibility of 1 extra 7gal clone potting that would get wicks and a bucket.I wanted some clones to see if I could get a swicky-cup in a jar to root a clone, in hope the clone would be swicky or sippy trained right from 1st rooting.

I may also keep yet 1 more clone in a 1.66gal pot, in case the strain is worthy of having a mother plant to grow from again. I have never grown this strain indoors before. It does really well outdoors.
If the mutant stays mutated and is a Gal, I will likely keep a mutant as a mother plant.

I also have my eye on one of the 12/12 sproutlings because its the biggest seedling I have ever seen, so if its a female I would like to flower her.
The tent crowds quickly!
The lemon and pomegranate trees already got the boot back to the dining room table. Momma is not impressed.
I'm starting some ginger and turmeric on my heat mat in my clone section. Going to grow them again this year in SIPs out in the garden.

I have grown both but didn't put enough effort into figuring them out. I grew them in a window.
The ginger grew incredible in a pot. 3 feet tall in a 1gal pot. The whole house smelled fresh all the time. The tumeric was meh... but that was probably more me than the plant.
I will eventually try again.
I need to see some pictures for inspiration.

The Kloneking cut is Day 3 in the 10gal and looks to be settling in without much revolt.
The perlite tray has it pretty optimal.

The Klonekings are still growing. Its incredible that all the mass of those roots came from nutrients in the leaves and the air. Yeah Momma Nature!
Its Day 18. The soil swicky-cup clones are still very happy, just not rooty yet.

The 10gal Mother plant is filling in quickly. It loves the new swicky pad and drinks about a litre a day.
Its got a very good branch structure for scrogging. This strain grew huge for me on an outdoor scrog last summer.

She's rooted in pretty good now.
Her water intake has doubled from 1 litre/day to 2.
Thats always a good sign. I think about the 25th I will flip her to flower.

I was cleaning out the Kloneking Cloner today and I couldn't give these 2 to the worms.
So I planted them in 1.66gal pots and put them in a perlite bed. I have no idea what I will do with them.
The Mutant is starting to get established. It looks happy but still a bit wet.
The Kloneking clone is also looking quite happy but will lose a couple leaves. It looks like it may be just starting to get established.
The 12/12 Gang started to drink faster than the wick could supply and 2 got quite light, so I buried the wicks and the bottoms of the cups in perlite wick beds. They already seem less stressed.
The 10gal swicky pad is again drinking 2 litres/day and filling in quickly.

The Peanut Gallery supports your decision.

The 1st KK Clone is settling in nicely now.
The 2 new KK clones are perking up in their new environment.
The Mutant is really settling in now.
I am travelling until Friday night. I hope the wicking systems work. We shall see
.
I was able to get at that fan/hummer. It's a dyson AM10 fyi. Happy trails!

I came across this today. Its a chart of soil antagonism. Studies show a good ratio of K:Ca:Mg is 4 : 2 : 1. Hopefully it will help someone.

I'm travelling so all I have today are webcam updates. Sorry for the low quality.
The big plant is filling in nicely. Flowering gets closer.
The Mutant looks very happy. It seems to have linked to the soil and now its doing its thing. Sure hope its a girl.
The 1st Kloneking clone looks like its established itself in the soil too. It looks like it may be a very pretty plant.
The newest Kloneking clone, hiding beneath Momma's leaves. It is 48 hours into the soil and still looks fragile.
Sink or swim Girl!
Daddy won't be home for a few more days. Hopefully the perlite bed keeps her hydrated.
The other new clone is hidden from view. Hope she's OK.
The 12/12 Sproutling Gang are in the other tent with no webcam so they will be a surprise when I get home. Hopefully a pleasant surprise!
