An auto, three photos and a clone

Yea just going to flush with water from dehumidifier. I’m way ove ten weeks of flower on BD. Cones still look milky No amber that I see and it’s doesn’t seem to be doing anything anymore. I don’t know
Critical purple smokable had airy buds so they dry quick and I wasn’t on point
Oh well
Hope all is well
Retirement is overrated lol

Thanks @beardless for tagging me on this link. As always your Logs and Pictures are awesome. I’m setup to follow. Question with regards to Clones, Someone told me and I don’t remember who that Clones remember their stage of life when cut and need to be taked early during the Vegetation stage. Is that true ?

Thanks again, :grinning:

Keep in mind this is my first attempt and when I chose to do it was much later than generally recommended. Your chance of success is higher if you take them during early veg. Mine were well into flower so it took for ever for it to switch gears from flower back to veg. I think this is the age related part. Had I taken it earlier during veg, all it would have had to do was establish roots (maybe 2 weeks at most) and she would be good to go. If you are wanting to give it I try, I highly recommend @Hellraiser thread Hellraiser Cloning. Exceptional teacher and willing to get in the weeds about specifics and knowledge sharing.
Here she is this morning. I just turned the veg & bloom light on and set it at 30". Two months from the day it was cut. Next week, she and her AK47 companions will move into the tent.

Quick update on Jack Herer auto. Gave her a shot of sensizym with root hume (already had the root hume so did not switch to AN Ancient Earth yet). Held off on any Iguana Juice. Did not want to over nute her given the soil she is in. Plenty green. Just a little more LST today. For now, turning her around the inside of the pot. Plan on taking the lowest branches in the opposite direction
Before:

Have a great day. I have to go fire up the chain saw and buck up a dead tree.

Thanks @beardless, She seems to be coming along nicely.

My next door neighbor sent me a test yesteday saying my “Cannabis Plant was Thriving” Said he stopped counting Buds at 50 but believes there is another 30-50 he didn’t count.

Hoping the College students don’t steal her. LOL

AK47 Nothing too exciting. These are from yesterday day 31. Slow to start. Not sure if it was the potting soil (same as I used before) or the peat pots. I know I had a hard time zeroing in on the amount of water. I think they are now beyond the danger zone, Have given them root hume, week 2 dose of Iguana Juice and Sensizym. Put them under a blurple (veg & bloom on) at 30" (same a clone)


#3 needs something? Maybe the juice will kick in.

Getting the tent ready for them. Reconfiguring the exhaust and filter. Will post the progress.

How long into grow will you continue to LST the auto?

I feel the are runty. I posted pictures of my 10 that are like 32 days or so. They look good.

I think next round I will go from paper towel to final pot wit the Autos. Maybe better than the transplant shock.

To be determined. I am experimenting a little. I have not tried the circular pattern before. As long as the branches remain flexible and growing I will continue. Like I said, I need to get some of the branches directed toward the open side of the pot. That is the purpose of the 2nd node staple. One issue I see is the amount of growth directed toward in the inner radius of the main stem. I will need to address that. Hopefully I can redirect some of the branches away from the center. Time will tell.
Wanting to spread her out and give each flower head as much space as possible, That may mean trimming and sacrificing a few. Have to see where it goes and what it will let me do. Playing around I guess.

yeah I know I have been following

Got you there. I know I am going to scrap the small peat pots which I have used in the past. I liked them because I could cut them open a bit and plant the seedling and pot in the final pot. And, thereby eliminate the shock associated with transplanting.

I tried training my auto that’s almost done in a circle around the edge of the pot. Ran out of stretch fast and had to cut a couple nodes off for space.

She stayed super small.

I am thinking that is what may lie ahead for me too. Willing to sacrifice a little to try something new / different. It is a jack herer auto so maybe her sativa lineage will save my bacon in terms of growth.

Trixie is adorable. I like to call them compact or stout. I am not very creative when it comes to naming them #1 #2
She is solid though…

Scrubbed down the tent and is ready to receive to the new ones. I have been thinking about moving the fan and filter outside the tent and finally pulled the trigger. Doing this will give me the ability to veg longer and allow for taller / larger plants. I gain 10 - 12 min.


You can see the electric junction box for the light’s wires

With it up tight against the filter this was what was left for pots, plants and clearance above them.
After removing the fan and filter

New filter. Went with 18" to replace the 24" filter. Took the pre-filter and stuffed it inside. Doesn’t do much good on the outside.

Cut a piece from the old prefilter (after a good wash in Oxy) for exhaust pre-filter before the fan

New setup for relocated fan and filter.


Getting settled in

They shared 500 ml of water with root hume, 1ml Iguana Juice and 1ml of Sensizym

This is the NL clone cut 7/2. I am looking for advice or to be corrected before I go down an ill advised path. It is just over 6" and has been in this 6" pot for two weeks +.


I’m thinking I should transplant her to her 5 gallon home before too much longer so I can start LST.
She has three stems so I was planning on starting there by simply bending and spreading them out once she is in her new pot and recovered. Eventually, top each stem once. Beyond that, see what happens.
Do I do anything with the old flower head at its base? Just leave it alone?
First time working with a clone so any do’s or don’ts will be appreciated @Arrow @Cannabian @Hellraiser. A lot of cloners out there so you are welcome to pitch in.
