and he had his cfl hanging vertically and said they worked great like that
Over a 3x3 tray, you could to go the cheap route and get 2 2 bulb t12 fixtures(regular shop lights) with 6500k bulbs for veg, clone , or mothers. Spectrum will work for it all except flower. Thats what i keep my moms and clones under. Also that 600, could get lowered if you notice the plants starting to get a lil stretchy between the nodes... only downside to autos is once they reach a certain age, regardless of size they start flowering, and theyre almost impossible to clone. Ive ran some 60 day wonder before its a williams wonder autoflower from dna, i was not impressed and the plant came out very small. Yield was maybe 10g off it...not worth it to me.
ok man sweet...ya 10g wouldnt be worth the wait in my opinion too..ya i noticed same thing...i kept forgetting to like a noob...so im thinking my cabinets gonna be 35"Wx32"Dx50"H

approx 12" narrower than tent other dimensions approx same
approx 12" narrower than tent other dimensions approx same
Thats about the size of tent i have those 2 plants in in the previous mom pic..if you plan on having a mom, vegging and cloning id suggest bigger. Like a 5 x5 tent..
oh damn really? just dont have another room/area for it so really need to get it in same room if at all possible, was hoping to square off this section i have explained in the picture...any high than what ive shown will be at level of the A/C unit and will get in way of the flow i believe ya know?
5x5 would work for a veg/clone moyher room of you plan on only running 1 or 2 strains at a time. It could fit a 2x3 tray in and jampack it with 20 cubes(turbogarden) and still leave some room for mothers and clones. Drop 1 single 400 in anf itll provide enough light for all stages. Keep the dome at the far end of the room almost on the floor so it gets the least amount of light.... the size of the room your talking you wont be able to veg the amount to fill the tray...youll jave to monocrop and just take cuts 20 days before current is finished and as soon as its finished veg in the same room
damn ok i see what your saying...just dont have another area right now so dont know hat im gonna do...not too concerned about the amout of dif strains...just main things im concerned about are doing whatever i can to get it going perpetually so i can get some kind of harvest every 30-50 or something so i dont have to go straight from seed everytime ya know...ok thanks as always man back to the drawing board
Space wise if thats all you have to work with your looking at around 100 to 110 day crops. 20 clone, 20 veg 60 70 flower.just gotta time it all right so its back to back. Thats how my glufie room is right now..i dont have space to pit another veg tray so i take my cuts when its 50 in so by 70 75 flowers out, clones in for 20 day veg the repeat...
Unless you can buy 20 cuts at a time, that could cut 20 days out...
So heres my pp at 36. I was looking online last night to see who else makes a similar cross and i came across cotton candy kush. Same parents but different selection. Never knew it but thats what it is...anyways heres my selection at 36 days...
Also gg4 at 16 days.
Also gg4 at 16 days.
My next round of cuts about ready to start veg. Itll get another 3 or 4 days in the dome before getting cubed.

Looks great! All ready to train up.for another fight. Mine ain't doing so good, idk what the problem is.....starting to wilt.....No bueno.
Post a pic. And ya, I've got a tray of glufies coming out in 10 days so these will take their place. 25ish gg4. All of the dome is rooted except 1

Niice sturgeon, even 24 strong gorilla cuts will make a mess, that's amazing actually. I'm going for that approach of using more plants per square but I need to work on my cloning methods.
That was a close call, I seem to have revived the cuts. I realized that maybe I went a bit too light with the coco mix and they were drying out and not keeping good humidity in the dome. I bottom fed with plain water by letting my cups wick up a good amount of water and misted the tops and the dome more. It seems like I have better successes leaving them with no dome and plenty of water, it seems like once they get used to heavy and humid they wilt so much easier, for lack.
I might lose a few as usual but I'm hoping they do ok, I start a full time job soon so I'm not going to be home all day to nurse my garden anymore. So, could be time to get an official cloning system going, I'll have to look at what you're doing again, you've got it working great.
The upside of having less time for plants is, I'll be getting checks so supplies won't be and stuff won't be as much as a problem anymore. I got some stuff done downstairs today, it's looking pretty good.

If i lose a cut its because i either didnt have space or it was a weak cut. Hardly due to a loss from health...im used to needing every cut to work so i baby the babies

I hear that. Needing every cut to work. I'll get a good method down soon, I've had very good luck so far, until now. Taking almost half of my *cookies unknown plant only to watch them all wither and die and now these starting the same.
I'm guessing since I over saturated the coco last try, this time was too light and airy and so was losing them on that end.....gotta get a set it forget it method going. Perlite is tempting.

Dont over think it. Cloning is very simple once you find a method that works. My method is as simple as it gets and all that gets sprayed is the dome. Jist get some 1.5 aok cubes and a dome setup and itll start being easy...

Sounds good to me, thanks.
I'm tired of not having the tools to do the job. I can't wait to get these things I need to make it work how I need it to. One of the first things I'll get is a nice pair of pruning scissors. I'm sick of botched cuts. That's the worst!
