I just put together one of my dro systems last night as well, and got some SNLxNH seedlings and some bagbeans that will make a new home out of that ebb n flo system...then as they get bigger they will get new homes...

later keep it up bro

Yeah.. definitely very simple setup. I am trying to keep an eye on PH. Even after washing/soaking I am going to have to adjust the ph 2 times a day minimum it seems. I am probably going to build an auto PH doser. I would hate to have my ph go screwy on me when I'm not able to get to my plants.

Beyond that I don't think I have anything to worry about with this system. I may add a single air stone to my buckets. My water doesn't fall from very high up and doesn't create too much of an aeration action. I just want to ensure my water is oxygen rich.

The plants in the pics are from clones. To be honest I don't know if they'll make it. I waited too long to take them from when they got some roots and when I put them in the system. So they are very weak right now and probably on the verge of death. Currently 1 is very limp and the other has some wilted leaves. We'll see if either of them can snap out of it. If not then I have 20 more potential clones coming.

I will continue this cloning thing until I can successfully get 100% success rate. So far I'm not having much luck though

Estimating the plants having about 3 weeks left. I will be trying to get a loupe this week to start inspecting the trichomes. I'm thinking about harvesting around 30% amber. I want a nice heavy smoke.

d4twamp · #**253** (**permalink**) Nov-28-2008, 23:56

keep at it w/ the cloning D, you'll get the hang of it bro...I believe in your skills, so should you...

Weedhound · #**254** (**permalink**) Nov-29-2008, 12:15

Clones take nothing but practice. I won't mention to you the number of clones I lost in learning how to take care of them. Stinky mentioned something to me once about the clone gods taking pity after a time so you'll get there. I found it very frustrating but invaluable once learned.

Shovelhandle · #**255** (**permalink**) Nov-29-2008, 14:54

I'm gettting some smoke from my own clones for like only the second time. Lost quite a number somehow.

I have three nice clones to go into flower next month too. It really is handy as hell to be able to see a nice pheno and be able to get a lifetime supply of it.

Weedhound · #**256** (**permalink**) Nov-29-2008, 14:57

Thanks Shovelman.....

Weedhound · #**257** (**permalink**) Nov-29-2008, 15:13

Dai, your ladies should give you some good dense buds. the sugar leaves get to looking very long and sativa-like but is not a hard trim. Make sure you give them plenty of time to fill out and you should be very happy with the results.

daihashi · #**258** (**permalink**) Nov-30-2008, 14:38

ughhhhhhhhhh

I did something stupid last night and left the dome off my clones by accident... now the majority of them are all limp and look like death. I put the dome back on in hopes of some of them strengthening again.

crap crap crap... another 20 clones down the drain

Weedhound · #**259** (**permalink**) Nov-30-2008, 15:23

Done it and anyone who has NOT done this please raise your hand.

Dai, do you still have my email?

what's the 420 scope?

WhiskeyTango · #**263** (**permalink**) Nov-30-2008, 17:11

HerbScope.com - The 420 Scope Information Resource!
60-100x magnification and a white LED for light
good vibes

ahh.. I have one of those but it's the radio shack brand. I used it on my last grow and wasn't impressed... but then again I didn't have the trichs that I have now since that was shwag bagseed.

I'll give it another go and see what things look like under the pocket scope.

daihashi · #**265** (**permalink**) Dec-01-2008, 01:13

Well it look slike most of my clones will make it.. 2 have died for sure. 1 had white fuzz/mold on it and the other had just wilted completely. Which was unfortunate because both of thse had little root bumps which seemed to indicate that things were going very well up until I removed the dome

Oh well.. I suspect the most I'll lose out of this will by 6 clones; leaving me with 14. Hopefully they'll all root.

Weedhound · #**266** (**permalink**) Dec-01-2008, 10:31

well that's good. Is that the first time you had removed it or are you doing it a few times a day to let some air in?

FADE IN:

INT. - COMPUTER DESK - DAY.

D4TWAMP sits in his chair in front of a computer screen. Holding a cherried up rolling paper stuffed with U2 Kush in his left hand. His right hand is raised as though he's in a classroom waiting to be called on by one of his Professor's...

D4TWAMP
Mrs. Hound my hand too, is raised.

MRS. HOUND walks up behind D4TWAMP with a yard stick in hand. With one quick swift SMACK.

D4TWAMP
Ouch!

D4TWAMP covers his head to fend off the next blow he thinks is coming.

MRS. HOUND
You can put your hand down now,
knuckle head.

He quickly puts his hand down, as MRS. HOUND walks up to the next knucklehead with his hand raised.

FADE OUT:

Sorry I just see it all so vivid in my head like a scene from a film. And yes for those of you who could tell this isn't exact proper screenwriting format but it's as close as I could get in this reply window here at CanCom

Daihashi, Just don't give up bro.. My first cloning foray went well up until the part of caring for the cuts...My first attempt at cloning I took 40 something cuttings.. Yeah ambitious or crazy, you tell me...of the 40 something I took only a dozen made it to root, due to my abuse... But the knowledge gained well out weighs the cuttings I lost or the yield they could have given me...You'll get the hang of it bro...My hand is raised right along side of you...and Hounds' ...lol...I guess it could have been Professor Stinky w/ the yard stick and all of us in a full class room w/ our hands raised....lol...

D

:::EDIT::: I just realized WH said if you have NOT done this raise your hand. So disregard the whole hand raising scene...DAMN STONERS...D

I only remove the dome whenever I have to water/mist them per the advice I got from stinky.

One of my clones has 2 little roots poking out of the RR today.. YAY!!! How long do I wait before I put it into the hydro system?

Day 54 Flower

So it's getting close with only 3 weeks or so estimated to be left. I looked at the trichs on a 2 of the older plants and they're mostly cloudy with the occasional clear and the occasional amber. Originally I said I wanted to harvest at about 30% amber but I'm thinking more of about 15% amber.

So with only 3 weeks out I can't tell if these are actually going to put on weight or if they are going to be smaller but denser buds. Anyone who has grown and harvested SNLxNH care to express what type of buds their plants produced?

So far I'm very pleased with them and they seem heavy even though the buds don't look big. Many of the plants lean ALOT and I have to correct them when I put them back in the flower room. Which reminds me I need to add stakes to my shopping list.

2 of my new clones have roots and I think I will have at least 10 survivors this time.. YAY..

Hey wow, those girls look great!
