Where were we....ah yeah, White Rabbit. A beautiful cultivar from Hi Elevation Genetics.

White Rabbit cultivar is a sativa dominant strain with alarmingly high concentration of terpenes. She boasts upward of 4.3% terpenes, a result of a cross of two phenomenal sativas.

Sugar Pine 211 x Good Clean Fun

This flower will hit you with a super high!

I think I'll put 16 White Rabbit plants under one of my lights! A keeper for the mother tent!

I'd like to introduce to you "Mendo Stinko."

Lineage: [(Salami Leg X Mendo Montage f4) X (Mendo Montage f5)] X (Skunk1)]

Mendo Stinko will be sown and blown with frequent updates. I have a tray of 32 going in rock wool cubes.

Back to the variegated cultivar I've been growing, propagating, cloning, and sharing. This thing is a level of sicko not seen in a while. The variegation goes deep and in some places the green is completely gone giving way to this yellow flower. One of my friends thought it was sick as she has not had much experience with variegation in general.

Fruity Fun came from Shapeshifter, at Hi Elevation Genetics. This genetic is not available to the public.
Variegated one is the most strangely beautiful plant I've seen in a long time

Mother plant inspection and trim time. I do this weekly and inspect the rest of the 18 hour hotel. So far the following are yielding enough cuttings to fill a 32 unit rock wool tray or the 36 spot CloneKing:

Triangle Kush
Bacio Gelato (Gelato 41)
Gary Payton
Fruity Fun (Variegated Cultivar)

I have the following in the tent for potential Mother plants:

Dancing Lime
Miami Mami
Goombay
Bubba Kush
Canna Loco
Triangular Salami
Meltdown

Shabbo is helping immensely today and is happy.

I've been growing Triangle Kush from 6 different vendors over the last few months, including one clone only, and the difference in the results and appearance are astonishing. This is from the clone only at Cannaventures. Stacked is not a strong enough word to describe this one.

Operations Update:

Recently I began planting only one strain in each 4x4 area and started with this section of variegated Fruity Fun. There are 16 plants in this space under one light. You can see the area is not as densely populated as it could be, especially in consideration to yield. This is the first section that I raised also. It is easy to maintain and observe for potential problem identification, plus I store potting supplies under the raised racks.

The next 4x4 section is ready for planting. I am proposing to put two plants per 3 gal pot for a total of 32 plants. I'm pretty sure this is a smart move and will test it. I've got 32 Gary Payton clones rooted and ready to plant. It makes sense to me to raise this section a couple of feet off the floor. I will keep two of the 4x4 sections elevated and two of the sections ground level for growing taller plants up to 7 foot.

Shabbsie Boodle is mucking around inspecting the grow room. I put stronger cording around the perimeter of the netting to stop the net from sagging.

Overall it's a great day in Drippys garden.

Great pictures :greenstars:

I slept over it but i have to ask..
Do you cut back the top growth before taking clones or will they recover?
What's your experience?

Have a great weekend :bongsmi: ☮️

Unrelated observation: There is no 'dabbing' emoji. :biggrin:
Great question. Through trial and error I have learned to give the mother plants a trim whether I am taking cuttings or not. For the plant I am currently taking cuttings from, she has been trimmed in the last couple of weeks, however, taking the cuttings is the trim for her. The rest will get a hair cut and maybe a Brazilian wax to stay smooth! The plants need a trim/cut routine and also going in a cleaning up unhealthy or otherwise not optimal leaves and branches is necessary. I cut pounds and pounds of material off these plants yearly. They don't really care and actually grow better with routine maintenance. Plus Shabbo likes when I clear out the ladies from the 18hr Hotel for haircuts and an opportunity to do a quick cleaning of the inside of the Hotel.

I had to develop good habits and routines to keep things running smoothly. It takes a lot of work to keep reservoirs clean, mother plants trimmed, aero-cloner clean, drip trays empty, rock wool cutting trays wet, de-humidifier empty, cuttings potted, seedlings plopped, coco/perlite mixing, making 30gal water daily, and a whole bunch of little shit, like making plant labels, getting rid of waste, and cleaning spills and over runs. My flower room has 64-128 plant in flower at any given time and the hotel usually has around 80 cuttings or seedlings going, plus the 8 mother plants.

The above does not account for chopping 2x4 area weekly, loading Cannatrol units, trimming, weighing, packaging. labeling, and distribution work, like taking orders, making deliveries, meeting clients for meals and entertainment. It takes a lot to keep my thing moving without major hick ups. And it ain't easy. For this reason I give weed away by the pound to my friends and family. Nobody in my circle has to have a transaction with me for any Canna products. I have hundreds of vape cartridges, thousands of THC gummies, cases of mushroom gummies, ounces of resin, ounces of rosin, ounces of badder, and ounces of water hash. They get it all. As long as I keep making money on some of my stuff I can afford to give more away to my circle. Elevate your circle is how I operate. If your circle is struggling you can be a shining light among them. There is no cost to being a giver.

Okay, enough of the details, I have a bunch of work to do today. And I have a 63 foot Catamaran to wash and detail sometime this weekend. The boat belongs to one of my long time customers. Maybe I'll post a picture or two of that. Enjoy your day and smoke up everybody!
