Glaus, I too have just learned about proper flushing. It's not just watering with plain water. To properly flush you need to run 3 times the voulme of water slowly through the pot. For example, if you have a 1 gallon pot, to flush you need to run 3 gallons of water through. Makes sense. To get out all the nutes, you really got to rinse well.
:-(, if I buy some fem seeds then I gotta deal with cloning, which I'm not ready for. I want to keep things as simple as possible.
Thanks Fonz, great idea. One of these plants was completely different than all other plants. Leaves never got spots or any problems, not too much stretch, and the plant has a sort of rubbery feel to it. I would love to see a female version of it. These two really turned out so well--the best I have grown. Such a shame they turned out male.
Next time I'm going to minimize veg, and flower much earlier. Bagseed again, or maybey get some LowRyders or something.
If i had easy access to good genetics, cloning would not stop me from acquiring them.
CLoning is easy. You take a bunch of cuts from your mom, use one of the methods on the site (peat pucks are great!) and you just make sure the rootzone doesn't dry out and voila! Roots!
Never again let that choice plant die! Keep your best plant from each from-seed run and have beautiful variety.
If you can grow two males that beautiful I am pretty sure that you can root a clone.
And as a plus you can enjoy the ancient art of making bonsai mothers of your favourite strains. This is from the first seed that I grew.
The only way to get the hang of cloning is IMO trial and error.
I can’t produce more seeds from fem seeds. If I want to continually use fem seeds I would have get some, then take clones, because I will run out of seeds.
But I hear you guys, cloning should not be very hard.
you could cross females to each other by feminized pollen production with colloidal silver.
Or you could keep some good pollen and seed up a female and use these seeds later on.
But clones are usually faster and you know what to you get.
