Thanks Bud, glad you liked it!
Quick Update:
I got a lot done today.
I got the new MH assembled and in place in its cool tube. Got the air pump for the cloner and got it a bubblin' away with a full load of clones (6).
Plus, I managed to tweak some things and was able to get the temps up in both the veg and flower rooms. Flower is sitting at a nice 68F, and the veg room is cozy at a balmy 82F.
Only issue now is my RH. It's absolutely wretched at 29%
But that I can deal with, basically boils down to more watering.
Feels nice to have everything going finally. Time to get down to it
The plan as of right now is to go ahead and flip the big SWT13 reveg over to 12/12 in about 3 days. I'm to the point now that I just wanna get moving. So either the SWT13 clones take this time (I'm 1-4 on cloning this bitch, hoping the bubble cloner will help sort things out), or they don't and I just lose the genes. Hate for it to happen, but things gotta move. If I can't clone it, I don't need it anyway.
Once the Brain Warp seedling get large enough, they'll be rinsed out of they're soil sprouting cups and put into DWC buckets. Once sexed, the females will be put straight into flower.
Within the next week or so, I'm going to pop JLP's Mississippi Mud and get them started. I have a feeling I'm going to be looking for a mom out of those, which is another reason I don't mind passing on the SWT13 genes if they don't make it.
Now, if the SWT13 clones do take, then we're off to the races. 4 of the clones will be put directly into flower after a weeks veg, DWC style. The other clones will be kept as a mom.
So, if all goes well, here's the Harvest schedule:
SWT13 Reveg
SWT13 Clones
Brain Warp
Mississippi Mud
Hopefully, it'll time out to about a month between harvest.
April 15 will be 60 days from this coming Wednesday. That's the day the SWT13 Reveg goes 12/12. Should be nice and dry just in time...

cool NiteTiger, glad to hear you have ome nice genetics on the go. that mississippi mud should be a winner. i get you on the clones, if they don't root, give 'em the boot, eh? lol.
peace

congrats on the new ph meter, that will make life easier.
Here's an update!
The Seedlings are loving the new warmer temps and the 400w MH, absolutely loving it
The SWT13 Reveg is started her 12/12 last night:
The clones, however, are not happy with the sudden loss of nutrition and drop in light. It's not as bad as it looks from the angle of this pic, though. It's just the leaves that are wilted, the stems are standing up nice and straight. I think at least two of them should survive. Actually probably 5 of them, one I'm a little doubtful over
'Til next time

The babies look happy! Too bad about the clones... 
Enjoying it so far, learned a bunch from reading your stuff!

Hey bro,
I'm still here, following along, thanks for the update

FlipMode - Meh, I'm not too worried about the clones, they're only 2 days off the mother, it's noemal for them to droop. The stalks are still standing up and a nice green, so I think they'll make it. Like I said, the pic doesn't really give you a good angle on them.
TimTim - Glad you're tagging along bro! Hang in there, we should have some buds here soon!
Mpro - Indeed it was! Now, if only one of the clones survive, so I can keep the genes available. You'll understand why when this girl gets to budding again :wink:

Also in the winter time, the cooler air is not able to hold as much moisture, so just heating up cold dry air isn't going to put moisture into it.....Dryer air would make them wilt even easier. A humidity dome or 1-2 L bottles over the clones would raise the humidity and help conserve moisture.
hehe Nite Tiger
mistreating your plants, lol S&M did you say? honestly i'm shocked, rofl.
better luck with the clones this time man.

So, today, my new breaker finally arrived.
We can get that extra 30A circuit in, and get a big heater put in the flower room. Which will be nice, since the small heater I had in there died today 
Poor reveg is gonna get a tad cold tonight. Lights on temps were hovering at 58
So, she'll drop down a bit tonight, but I dont' think it'll be anything she can't handle. I'm still going to try to slide another heater in there tonight, but all I've got are big ones, and I don't think the circuit will handle it.The seedlings are doing great, and the clones are perking up a bit, which was nice to see. Got the humidifer up and running a coupla hours ago (it had stopped working too
), so that should help too.Oh, and the reveg got a dose of heavy veg nutes. After reading some more on Lucas formula, I realized that I should be doing 8ml in veg and 16 in flower. This might explain some of the poor results from the last run. I mentioned she was a heavy feeder a coupla times, so I think she'll respond very well to the heavier nutes.
We'll see soon enough
Oh, and today was my first day at my new job - passed the drug test
Awesome job too, I couldn't have asked for a better one. (Well, except for as a Caregiver in Cali )So, all is well in the Tiger's Den.
'Til next time
that is good news Nite Tiger, very glad to hear your happy with the new job. makes a big difference to life if you can be happy in your job.
interesting about the lucas formula. would explain the lowish yield last time.
keep up the good fight
