Sorry for the long stories I'll try to keep it shorter. But I just wanted you guys to know I added a Sour Valley Clone about identically the same size as the Burning Man Clone. That's 100% it for the flowering room, there's like 22-23 plants in there. I'm gonna have to backup the section behind me that you come in about a foot. I already don't have much room once you walk in, but I've got a few feet there. I don't expect the 2 clones to get anywhere near the size of the others, but they could. There very healthy clones....Pics later tonight guys!!!!

Sorry for the Lemon Tart smoke report, I've had a great drying cure process going with both strains from last grow. But I hadn't smoked the LT just cloned it. And those 8 are my first. I'll tell you it's not a Strong tasting if any lemon, maybe a slight Lemon Sour is how I'm describing it. It's a good taste and great buzz!!!! I'm gonna smoke this strain the next few days it's finally kinda drying like I want. I've did my best dry and now curing process in yrs!!! Giving lots of thought to eventually stop the SLK, I might keep this Lemon Tart clone another go.... I could probably fit a few more of those. But the SLK filled it up. Also as of now I'm glad to have the HPS, my feelings could change. I'd love another LED with the mean driver I think it's called??? They seem to penetrate a lot better. These Updayday and others are good, but your gonna need a few of them. Updayday has some great 1000w and 1800s, and working on a new light were anxious to try!!!! I'm not sure the lifespan of these LED lights. I've bough Sunlight supply ballast and used them forever. It is a pain in the ass having to exhaust your heat and stuff. So I'm kinda 55/45 Lol Led right now if somebody ask

That Lemon Tart has a good buzz, that joint I can feel it lol....since head and body. My foot was killing me a bit ago, but I've still got half this big joint. It's a hard to describe taste, a slight Lemon Sour taste and kinda hashy tasting. I'll probably definitely keep the other mom and run them again one day!!! It's a very pungent smell, very strong. So if you have neighbors that don't like weed, your gonna piss them off lol!!!!

They were great. But a good photography person could've made those Lemon Tart looked better. I just use a old Sumsung phone for pics. Those were some beautys though right?? lol. I'm hoping this new round turns out great!!! Got a few clone only strains going here. Stop back in I plan to keep this thread open except while I'm cleaning the growroom or doing work on it between grows. So I was down a few wks but wanted to get started flowering 4/1 and ended up 4/20......But I'm really excited because the outdoors are looking rough.

 

[wvkindbud38]

Not sure if the Tahoes will root, but I've got at least 4-5 ECSD that will and probably 2 Sour Valley. I'd like to run 6-8 Sour Valley next time if I like it alot!!! Which I know I will. I had some root outta my Big 3 I call them, ECSD, SV, OGKB. It was in a riot rooter, I think it's OGKB but will have to wait til it gets bigger. I keep a Sharpie and duct tape to label stuff right. But most the time once your clones get a certain size you know what they are, in most cases. There's some that kinda trick me for awhile as there young. But anything from the Big 3 is always 1st priority in my grow. Those are my cornerstones, and blessed to have. I'm pretty impressed with this Chocolate Nightmare and the Burning Man plant. I did put a BM clone in the grow day before yesterday to go along with the HUGE original mom BM!!! I've got about 8-9 of those BM that look good. I might plant one outside. But I've just got a feeling that Chocolate Nightmare is gonna be a special plant, the Burning Man I see similar things about them. I've got some cloning solution my friend recommended and going get some blades and get the cloning machines clean!!! I'm using the 35 site but will plant those pretty quick. I usually do better once some roots start to grow to add them to soil and they pick up fast. Alots just running fem seeds and working alot. And I never ran a hydro set up, just a soil guy. But I'm gonna be at least a subpar cloner sooner or later.....hopefully. This is that life cloning solution, it's expensive so I'm hoping it might help some of my mistakes. I usually either do good or strikeout with these machines. It's a very hard job to get them clean and bleach free!! But I've had better luck because I've used longer than RRs. I know I let those RR get to wet and didn't squeeze enough water out. Some of these plants don't have but 2-3 cuts, while others I can get 20-30 cuts a plant. Of course the ones I want are the ones with few spots left were I've butchered them up trying for that cut. Most guys know what I mean, you just wanna have great weed and learn, help, whatever I can do.

If you guys didn't hear me say I put 1 more clone in flowering it's a Sour Valley to go with that burning man clone. I've got a 1000w light I gotta try to fix, I may have already damaged it. But if I can't fix, I've got a few older Leds I use for Veg and Flowering I can get out. It's not as good as these Updayday 1000w lights, hopefully I didn't damage it or can fix!!!

 

[wvkindbud38]

Here's the ones I'm talking about, a lot of my indoor lights consist of these!!!!,at least 6 or so
Updayday 1000w

[wvkindbud38]

Also got a few of these that are awsome!!!! Getting a lot of feedback from them, especially more on the 1800s since I've not used as much. There's a special surprise Updayday is gonna release in the near future!!!! My friend has worked very hard, with the cornavirus shutting him down awhile. I'm not sure the ETA on the new one. But hopefully we'll get a nice big plant under them. I grew that Lemon Tart mom under the 1000w Updayday and she's got nice big buds. I've got the BM mom under a 1800w this time to see what we get.

[wvkindbud38]

You guys should look into those, especially if your on a budget. I consider them more mid level but they preform like the 300-400$ Leds

How far away from the canopy do you keep the LED's? Oh, and btw, those rr's were slow rooting because of them being too wet just like you said. I just had the same issue.

Yea I thought they would eventually root. I have all my Leds mounted to the ceiling, I try to raise my plants off the ground of whatever to get them close. If the light doesn't get hot like some smaller 300w Leds I've let the plants grow up into the light because it wasn't hot. It basically depends on which Led the plant is under, as some get a lot hotter. But the first few weeks they grow so fast you would be moving lights everyday with this large of a grow. I might even put my clones on that step-up were the ballast is. But I make sure there as close without burning them. I need to built some boxes or something to raise them up higher. I like those pop creates so air can flow under your plants, . But I'll probably make something or put these 2 clones on the Step-up. This Lemon Tart is unique, got a good buzz today from a joint. I've really did a slow dry/cure thanks to the cool temps. Up north I'd hang plants 3wks it was so cold. I've still got probably a quarter pound to trim of the SLK. I wished I'd weighted them, there's a ton of hard small buds left to trim. Thanks for hanging around Vash!!! I think this grow is gonna be a good one!!!

 

[Vash]

Oh yeah, I'm around. You got yourself a lot of different flavors to enjoy. Glad you like that Lemon Tart. I'm about 2 weeks in myself, so I'll be riding along with you on this one. Good luck.

I got my 45 site cleaning now. And the 35 site has a few ECSD clones and SV I need to put in a Solo cup. I'd like to get the 35 site cleaned up and ready. I got this Life solution gonna try out. I new razor and blades and scissors are great. I need some Strawberry Aks and the older plants Gelato OG, Dos sweet dough from Sweat Seeds is great if you get the good pheno. But I've started about 10 that I REALLY like I'm gonna try to keep a few cuts of and flower out the first plant. Thanks for any and all help on cloning guys!!!

 

[wvkindbud38]

Got that 45 site cloning machine cleaned and rinsed out good!!! But I gotta go now and mix the Trifecta Crop Control and get everything sprayed. I'm trying to stay in front of the problem if it happens. I'll probably mix as suggest and use my 2 gallon sprayer to get them sprayed good!!! Damn, have forgot to do that for the last week. The cold weather helps I think, once it gets warmer things can get bad. And I'm not one to spray anything on buds, some Greencure but it rained so much that shit definitely got washed off.


I'll get some cuts the next few days and fire up the 45 site. I've struck out both times, hopefully 3rd times a charm. I'm gonna go about half strength with the Life solution. Hopefully that shit helps, I need some more OGKB clones!!!! I got 5 ecsd, and 3 SV, 2 Tahoe OG I'm praying on lol....but the other look good!!! That'll give me enough to run a few of each

 

[wvkindbud38]

Got everything sprayed good for mites!!!! Ok probably going plain water tonite since I've loaded up on nutes and supplements!!!

 

[wvkindbud38]

Everything going fine, maybe get the 35 site cleaned out tomorrow

 

[wvkindbud38]

I'll get some pics here in a few, I'm going to water. Man these plants are coming along. I'm GONNA have to remove some lower foliage and other leaves one day pretty soon. At this size I can prune half a garbage bag every time. And I'm not to big on removing leaves. But since I started back about 3yrs ago I noticed how much bottom space was removed!!!! I mainly just cut small stuff off the bottom some and remove a few fan leaves or whatever.

 

[wvkindbud38]

I've been trying to think of a way to add a drip feeder or small spray to kinda add some water several times a day. The only problem would be my well water is bad, I'd have to get me a tote or something to put water in. Then is there a device besides a water pump to hook up to add maybe a certain amount of water. I see those regulators for the main water hose but I'd have to make a reservoir and pour water even couple days depending on res size and garden size. If I had some way to get water to pump outta the reservoir and to my plants. I've been thinking I'd like to setup something like this. I'd need slack because I move plants around some. I know there gonna be limits on that. If anybody has any info or ideas please share. Maybe next grow i could automate some of the watering????

Forgot to post these last nite!!!
