You inspired me Buck.

This little monster crop gal has been sitting in my bubble cloner, no pumps, off to the side in the dark dying for the last 5 days since I couldn't find a spot for her.


Thanks to the hempy cup she's now resurrected

You inspired

Thank you.

At that stage, most of what you dump in is going to come out for a few days. I don't fertigate as much right away because of that. Every 48 hours will keep them happy and every 24 they start to push pretty hard once you see growth.

I was up an at em quite early this morning and like a good gardener, I wanted to get some water on the outdoor garden early in the day.

Easiest weed I ever have grown. Planted in the ground, using 1-part MegaCrop once a week and hose water. Very little effort given. She'll be on hose water from here on out.

That first pic looks like she’s frozen. Killing it with the KIS method

I am constantly trying different things to expand my understanding. Especially using the things I have on hand and knowledge gain from past escapades. I have seen a ton of cloning techniques that seem to be very easy and provide great results. For my set-up which uses the hempy bucket method perlite and vermiculite are in abundance. Using the hempy cup I posted earlier I placed a cutting about 1/2 inch up from the drain hole. I also filled a little glass with nothing but straight vermiculite. Check it out:


This is at 15 days

I did dip the tips in CloneX before placing them in their containers. The perlite was fertigated every 25 hours refreshing the mini-reservoir on the bottom of the cup. The vermiculite I re-moisten with some droplets every 3-4 days.

I believe that the perlite could be fertigated at less of an interval for the same results. The vermiculite looks too moist to me by the darkening of the tip. Next up is a combination mix.

So I've been doing this in mason jars for a while and I've tried everything . Perlite is the only thing that won't wick the moisture out if the rockwool . Everything else seemed to dry the cubes out on me . I pre soak the cubes and lay them into top of two inches of bone dry perlite . Seems to work for my method anyways. Funny how we all have our ways. It makes sense how u do yours as well. I'm actually dying to try your method now its def easier ?

I moved over to perlite as my only form of growing medium a couple of years ago. I like the growth I get and it's cheap to buy. I also re-use my perlite over and over again, so many times I am not even sure how long some of it's been around. I only recently have reintroduced vermiculite back into my system due to the fact that Bruce Bugbee from Utah State University recommended it. Its water-holding properties are obvious, but what really got me was the fact that it adds in silica. The only real reason I ditch it was because I couldn't really re-use it too much because it will breakdown fairly quickly. In comparison to the perlite, it becomes this mushy mess.

That's really cool . When I started in the 90s my first grow was done in perlite . Obviously it's was in it's rawest and most inexperienced manner lol. But I can see it's benefits and always have perlite in some way or another in my mix . It's a great medium .

GG88 (GG4s1 x GG75)

Shucked a lower to check seed maturity. These are looking really good. I'll give her one more week and the whole plant will come down.

 

[Frimpong]

Dam everybody looking great !

 

[Buck5050]

I'm going to be shucking for awhile. If I can get them drying out in the sun for another few days the seeds damn near fall out. It's super wasteful on the flowers but makes it easier by a whole hell of a lot.

 

[Buck5050]

@Frimpong

I pulled another bud on the same girl about the same height up on the plant a couple of days ago.

This is exactly 1-week of maturity. I'll pull another one next weekend.

Checking in on the candyman branch that I bagged with GG75 pollen a couple of weeks ago.
I think I have a twin? Here's another angle:

 

[Frimpong]

Congrats ? twins!!!

She's holding up well in a coastal climate.
