Didn’t take long to realize you HAD to clone Miss Sticky, eh? If I grew a sativa that stacked as bulky as that one is I’d become a clone expert in a few hours and clone the crap out of it. Fucking whoa. ‘Scuse my French. It’s like it exploded. Rarely do I see sativas like this as fully fleshed out as this one. You’re looking at single, all-grown-together, gigantic colas. What’s the exact name of this strain please? And the breeder? And the clones a sick healthy. Insane.

Meanwhile; ALL your plants look amazing. You and my Yoda need to shoot the shit. You guys have the two best soil mixes of anyone I know. It shows in spades in your plants. I’m finding the same thing with organics as I did with chem weed: anyone can grow big and pretty buds in coco with nutes. But there are levels. My plants look fabulous and I’m super happy with the mix and all that. But there are levels. I can visually see the difference. A ton of that is soil. A good bit is also an insane amount of paying attention, which is likely an area I will never match you in. There are other factors too. Like watering. I can see by the consistent turgidity you get that your watering skills exceed mine, which I knew but now it matters to me. Which begs a question:

Would you mind describing and/or showing the tools you use to water and talk a little bit about your watering technique(s)? My biggest problem with effective watering, I’ve decided, is my lack of specified watering tools. I know all the shit. It’s just way hard to pull it off. I even have the patience, finally, lol.

I also have a question about light, but I want to ask it here if that’s okay. I know you haven’t done autos per se, but take my word for it - once they are into flower they are photos. There is exactly zero difference at that point on any level….except for the hours of light you give an auto. Obviously you’re giving the photos 12. I have always given my autos 20. I go 20/4 start to finish.

However - I was talking to Yoda today and he said, roughly, this: the plant grows at night. You may think of it as rest, but in that rest there’s a ton of action going on. The plant NEEDS that time. The dark time is when the roots grow the most in particular. If I were you, I’d start them at 18/6 and give them 6 hours a day while you develop roots. Once you’re watering all the way to the edge of the pot, the roots are cool, so now go to your 20/4 till flower. Once they hit flower, then go back to 18/6. I think the extra growth you’ll get will trump the extra light hours you get now.

Yoda has never grown an auto.

Any thoughts on this? Gee or anyone? I usually take anything dude says as gospel but I even told him I was gonna put this out to my boys in the forum. Super curious.

Thanks.
