Looking good. I have some vegging now. The plan is to veg for 8 weeks then flower. I’d give em another 2 weeks or so then flip, imo brother. They look great

@Countryboyjvd1971 I’m at 5 weeks from the day I transplanted. I just want to get the most I can I guess. They are just now at 16 inches from soil.waiting on new light so I can finish the clone box. Taking clones tues and want to give them time to recover before I switch to 12 12

Iowacountryboy · February 3, 2018, 1:42pm

just trying one for now in this unconventional method @Countryboyjvd1971

Countryboyjvd1971 · February 3, 2018, 1:45pm

@Iowacountryboy a little hard to see what your doing there
Explain please lol

Iowacountryboy · February 4, 2018, 11:35am

@Countryboyjvd1971. My attempt at making clones cut down some solo cups put some holes in dropped in the seed starters then put coco around that. Worth a shot anyway.

Countryboyjvd1971 · February 4, 2018, 4:54pm

Nice
I use a 50/50 mix perolite and vermiculite to start clones
Keep medium moist and foliar feed them once a week till roots start

How did the LED work for reducing the electric bill @Iowacountryboy? I’ve been thinking about getting some to reduce electric cost. How well is it working for the grow?

Rexx · February 16, 2018, 4:24am

Looking good

Iowacountryboy · February 16, 2018, 9:36am

@cjc I’m pretty happy with the led. I think growth is kinda slow going with led. But they definitely get the job done my hole grow cost about 20$ 25$ a month

cjc · February 16, 2018, 10:43am

Thanks @Iowacountryboy. How much was your electric before switching?

Countryboyjvd1971 · February 16, 2018, 11:45am

Dude looking great hiws the set up treating you everything dialed in now ?

Iowacountryboy · February 16, 2018, 2:41pm

@cjc. I never checked the actual usage but it’s gone up some. I have alot running in my grow tho milkhouse heater, two duct fans, one oscillating fan, five lights, and a heat mat.

these are just lights from eBay or Amazon two 1000 w double chip. And a 2000 w double chip have no idea what there actual power is

Iowacountryboy · February 16, 2018, 2:56pm

@Countryboyjvd1971 yes the new light really helped. Just started getting some little white hairs. Won’t be long now. I did kill all the clones tho. I just said f it and put 14 more seeds down. I’m working on setting up a second grow area. Beings pretty soon I’ll be redoing the hole. Hopefully adding in a hallway and door from the basement.

Countryboyjvd1971 · February 16, 2018, 3:05pm

Dude that sounds like a awesome plan
Walking into the room would be great
I actually have a few clone im trying to get rooted it can take a few weeks and they always look worse before they look better but i hear you sometimes is easier to just start frim bean lol
I usually take a few clones off my best way plants during a grow if they make it great if not oh well I never depend on them lol
