Them leaves look a bit twisty m8. :)

brush past these everyday lol al show ya some proper leaf twist tonite on my schnapps update

Harry these aren't getting flowered out I will take cuts from these then discard them

why? you only ever grow a seed plant out once if you like it you run clones of that plant then that's when you see how she is consistently going to perform so I skip te first part and save time in the selection process by seeing how they perform as a clone from the off

I will take multiple clones from each seed plant one clone will be new mother the others will be flowered out on the next run

that's how I do it e, when they go on the prepared slabs they don't get water for a few days to encourage root growth into the slabs

First off Roll, that last pick of the slabs you posted looks great. What kind of yield can a slab grown plant get up to? I have always been told they are great of you can run a good number of plants per/light. I am medical and need to stay in numbers and have been led to believe the support needed for larger plants is not possible with RW. Larger like 6-7 week veg...

Interesting method of mother selecting. I do the opposite and flower the seeds. One benefit is they always yield more than the clones so it gives me one little extra push. I hear what you're saying though, the difference is noticeable in most strains from seed to clone. Mostly i find it to be a non issue because they tend to retain most of the characteristics, but i like your method still.

Grow on brother man, loving the show
