What up, Jane? Sorry I haven't been by, but I seem to have an issue remembering threads not in the diaries section!!! Think I'm just too stoned when I'm here.
Looking mighty sexy in there! Glad to hear the curling has stopped. Looks like you knew what you were doing before you ever started!!!

So... here's an update.....
I opened the closet for the first time in 2 days to find 2 issues w/ leaf coloring.... First off everyone got a small dose of TigerBloom 8 days ago. They got 1/3 of the recommended dosage (1 teaspoon to 1 gallon of water instead of the recommended 3:1 ratio. The Apollo 11's are having alot of yellowing, especially on lower leafs but on a good amount of upper ones also... here's some pics:
I'm not sure if it's a deficency/overdose or if it's something else... any input would be great....
Now the Purps. 2 of the plants are still suffering a very little bit of leaf curling. It's not the claw it's more of just the sides of the leaves curling not the tips... I also noticed the Purps are really really dark and leathery.... This could just be the strain I'm not sure...
The plants have all been waterd once since their only dose of TigerBloom. Are they telling me they want more/less nutes???
Here's some good healthy pics so as not to end on a bad note:
They go full strength next feeding. I alternate nutes between each feeding. They're definitely ready to start feeding. Hell, I start with Beastie Bloom (0-50-30) after just a couple weeks in flower.
well alright, todays is day 38 and they got just about a full recommended dose of TigerBloom (2.5 teaspoons to 1 gallon Ph'd water). We'll see how they like it.
The clones (to be mother plants) are all really healthy spitting out new growth like crazy. Either tuesday or wednesday i'm building a bigger veg cab, i need room for 4-5 mother's plus 4-5 clones and a cloner in there.
How big of pot should a mother go in? 1/2 gal big enough?? i dont want them huge as i'm only gonna be takin 1-2 clones from each say every 2-3months...
no pics today but it's gettin pretty stinky in the flower cab...
You could keep a mom in a 1/2 gal, but I'd think you'd be better served with a larger container, maybe a gal. I know you can keep the size of a mom in check by trimming the rootball, and taking some clones as presents
I know of someone who has kept the same plant as a mom for a few years. Just pulls it out of the pot and trims roughly half the roots right off. Mixes some new medium for the bottom half of the pot, and puts it back in.
Says it takes a couple of weeks to resume normal growth, but when it does...
Good luck with the construction! Can't wait to see what it looks like!
