Some pictures of the ChocoTonic dad (now chopped down) used to pollinated various clones, all under just 110W fluo panel. I obviously can't know how many seeds they will be, but I guess at least 50 for the bigger clones, less for the smaller. The bigger ones could go over the hundred.
I guess it's a good quantity to check out the offspring.
Flowered in 0,4 liters coco&perlite. It spent a couple of years in that little pot. Only canna hydro or aqua A+B basically everyday with some run-off.

I did a partial first try using a little single membrane mist-maker to switch the X-stream cloner into a fogger.
It worked out pretty good, however I noticed a raise in water temperature till 32ºC, even timing it on 15min ON/OFF.
Water used was 80% RO and 20% tap. Just a little bit of Canna hydro A+B and nothing else.
For sure it is more quiet when running, compared to the 1000 liter per hour pump used normally in these cloners. It also is very small, so in the reservoir there is pretty nothing, no pumps, no sprayers, just the little mist-maker. This is just great for cleaning and maintenance.
I will use it again next time, will see how it works long term.

Thanks bro and yes, just that little fogger... don't know exactly how long they took to root, but average speaking, using the classic X-stream sprayers, they take 7 days to see firsts roots sprouting from the stems. At 10 days 100% have well visible roots, some more, some less.
I guess it will be the same now using the fogger, or however I don't care because I usually take more clones than I need and always with a week in advance to be sure I can choose the best ones.
I really love these cloners as they just need to be cleaned sometimes, for the rest it's 100% free of work, just put the cuttings in and wait.
For those interested, I tried various rooting hormones in the solution, and well...they're absolutely useless, at least in my environment.
I'm now starting to test various micorrizae species to see if I can improve rooting.
Before using this
Shame to hear you didn't find anything good in the Agent Orange Plants. I have 8 about to show sex in the next week. Hoping for at least 3-4 females, and get 1-2 keepers out of them to run for the next while.
Thanks m8!
Yo Paulie, it's true, I didn't find good aromas, but indeed I have to say this strain is really easy to grow, it produces nice dense flowers, no excessive branching and stretching and takes 60 days average. One of the easiest strain to grow ever.
As in the post you quoted I'm going to harvest those clones and I'll take some pictures in the next days.
I bought some more equipment just to speed up things, so I get two more vegging tents, where clones can vegetate until the flower room becomes ready.
I expect to save at least 2 or 3 days each run, while splitting work in two steps, so it will be easier to transplant in a time, and move plants in flowering room in a second time.
The system is exactly the same of the flowering room. Simple and effective.
I choose to start using fibers pot for their high evaporation rate, helping to cool the root zone. Will see how they will work.
Important thing: I had to use teflon tape wrapping the connection as shown in the picture. It is necessary to disconnect the water hose when moving the pot. Without teflon the hose can't be disconnect easily.
On the other side, no need for teflon, just a good quality X connection (16mm)
So, when plants have to be moved, I just disconnect the hose and connect again in the flower room. Pretty easy and fast.
No HID for vegging, only 2x110W fluo lights. Extractor fan is a TT silent from Vents (125mm - 340m3) controlled by GSE dimmer.
As I wrote before AgentOrange from subcool it's a great strain on the growing side. Fast, dense nuggets pretty easy to trim, hard stems, good heat resistance (in the pictures below the summer run, with average (lights ON) temps always over 30ºC in the shade. Props to Subcool...however I would have been happier to find something more on the aroma side.
Here pictures at the harvest (60 days 12\12) in a 150x150cm tent, with 2 lamps dimmered between 400 and 600W depending on the stage and daily temps.

TGA seems to be known for flavours so you have a right to expect more out of this one. Is that all clones from one pheno? They look pretty similar if they are all 3! I think I should have 4 females at least out of my 8 seeds. Will find out this week, end of week I start bloom.Good to hear the plant is strong and easy at least
