Thanks WG! Hopefully the four other fems yield well. The clone appears to be flowering, so my little auto cloning experiment may have been a failure. I may have a little plant with 1-2 g of bud when it's done! lol

I estimate I have nine weeks for the Jets to be done...Once the first few are done I'll have space to make some Ice Cream clones. :)

I decided to switch the 250W MH to the 400W HPS until the end of flowering to see how it affects my bud density and calyx to leaf ratio on the autos compared to the MH. Still running CFL and LED with the HPS. I estimate the autos need nine more weeks before its time to fill the tent with Ice Cream clones.

lol I posted the nine week estimate twice. The AK/Widow is sure messing with my short-term memory. ;)

Well, I think I fed my plants with too much high P guano. I've experienced really bad leaf clawing on two plants, and they are still dropping leaves too early. They are still growing and budding, however.

Interestingly the Ice Cream is almost entirely unaffected by the bugs and overfeeding. The Ice Cream is one heck of a plant. I'm going to go see the guy who recommended it and pick his brain for more ideas, and also ask him what he suggests for the critters I can't seem to get rid of.

I will probably run five cuts and the mom in two gallon smartpots, or maybe use five gallon smartpots and run six (two per pot). Alternatively I could just repot the mom into a five gallon pot and flower her without cuts and cut out that veg time...decisions, decisions! Let's see how much I harvest from the autos; two of them are two feet tall and still stretching, so I'm expecting a decent yield from them.

Out of town and someone watered my babies for me yesterday...I left pHed water out. I've been using vinegar for pH, but no more. The pH is supposed to swing with vinegar as it doesn't stabilize the pH for long.

Visited the biggest grow store in town yesterday and a smaller one in the same chain today and picked up:

Advanced Hydroponics pH Down (phosphoric, the logic being I need P in veg as well as flowering)

Bayer Garten Neem Concentrate

BioNova BN-Zym (enzymes and micros)

Plagron Mighty Neem

I was given a Strainhunters grinder and Strainhunters lanyard with my second purchase. I considered giving them back. :D
