Well considering what has transpired since I started out with the clones, it pretty much has turned in to my diary and I have been updating it as such so I am going to make this my official first grow diary!!! Well as you can plainly see it all started with my clone situation and took off from there.
The ups, downs, scares and triumphs. I have since been pretty much been pulling on BLAZEONUP’s coat tails and the good folks here at IC for advice here and there, but my soil mix is strong so im confident, to those who bumps into this thread, look through, there is some simple but important info for the beginner/newb, and enjoy. The one thing i do apologize for (after sme thought) is that I really don’t keep in/up with the time lines as far as dates, but the day I post is the day it happens, so this is all in real time and current!!!
Brief history, I was gifted these SSH beans from a new found friend/ grower. He saw my zeal as a fellow grower and passed them onto me as my firs elite strain to grow. I ll never forget that day, we rolled p something nice (man it was always something nice) and that’s how the ciphers always began. This day the phone rang just I asked him for some seeds on a cross he happened upon. He told me to hold on, came back five minutes later with 12 SSH beans!!!! Needless to say I was shocked! Asked him how much, he says nah don’t worry about it, now I am f**kin stunned! So since then ,I have lost four, pooped four and have four left, and well the thread explains the rest. . . .
******************************************************************
i took a chance and took some clones from my plants way too early, and forgot to mark them. i have 2 xSSH left over from 4 after switching to 12/12 (you know the males just gotta go!!!). the clones , all are rooted but i just dont know which ones are which, i have 11 cuts in all and honestly i am glad they all took, since i really didnt use any additive to help the rooting process,they were young, had some treated plugs but thats about it. can i switch those clones to 12/12 , sex them, keep the females and then switch back to 24/0 until they are bettere built up for flowering?
is there anyway i can change, or insure that the ones that are males will switch to female? maybe a light change (time wise) or a nute additive
other factoids:
-before i flowered, i looked for those little pistils steming from the nodes and all of the plants had them, so i went with the thought that they were females unitl i a week after switching 12/12 and the balls dropped on the two. its also the reason i took a chance on cloning so early, they were about 2 or 3 inches tall at the time of cuttting
-clones are under 3 x 40 (something?)watt floros, and they are honestly taking off, shocks me how well they are doing since it was my first time taking clones, they slightest bit of H2O and they perk right up!!!
-i water them with a light EWC tea that i let soak over night, they are in cups with a EWC and promixBX with a little EWC in it (very small 4oz cups,i will transfer to 16oz cups tomorrow since i can see the roots against the wall of the cups)
. . .uhh. . .i guess thats all i can think of to tell right now, please post any other questions about info that i may have left out

EasyBakeIndica:" thanks for stoppin by but, sorry dude, they got the chop on site!!!, i wanna save the stems and make a onehitter out of 'em or something, they're jsut sittin on my work bench dryin out as we speak. thanks for the props, it feels good to be a this point after waiting so much time for the right time, but gawd these damned SSH's are takin a hella long time !!!
just to let everyone know, they are doing very well, i know i should but i am bad at keeping up with time as far as how many weeks/days/etc. but if memory serves me correclty its been about 2 weeks since i moved them into bigger party cups (about 16oz), and they are growing exponentially, and better than thier parents.
saw some resin glands with the microscope, but i hope they make it to the end, they really dont look good, will post pics of them too
i would have put it into a grow journal, but i guess i just dont feel that need for validation to "show my grow". the info and help with the grow is all i really need so i thank everyone for that, seriously. i figure, hell, if i am showing you pics of healthy/unhealthy plants you kinda get the jist of whats going on.
. Been wanting to get my hands on some SSH! I missed it by the skin of my teeth, a club was sellin' clones of it but by the time i got there, all that was left were rejects 
i am thinking maybe i can use your info, DIY the whole thing and then once i get it all setup, have him copme by and then ask if everything is setup ok? i maena should i jsut go ahead and then build the room first with the subpanel up, or should i just seriously configure where i want everything to be and then build the room around the panel once i get the go ahead.
