Stully's Magic Crystal from clone

[Tead]

Yea... I fell like a dumbass now... I was always trying to pry the cubes out using tweezers and such.

Cheers.. and thanks again!

the insert tray breaks up into blocks of like 9 cubes or something. I cut them down and use them for my tomatoes and peppers every year. So there is a practical use for them.

 

[stully]

hey thanks for the rep brother. can't return it to ya yet, so you get a big 5 star in your journal.

Looks like you have yourself some nice healthy clones, cant wait to see those ladies all grown up... Great job

 

[WeedyMcWeedWeed]

looking nice.

 

[stully]

Thank you everyone for stopping by. I am having some internet troubles, this is the reason for lack of updates. I should be back up and running by tomorrow evening. The clones look ok. Not great, but ok. i don;t think I will use the rockwool next time. It is too hard to get a happy medium between moisture and aeration. Not sure if I will use any medium next time. Might go right for the clone machine.

Stully, they still look good and viable bro, keep up the great work. ^5's..

 

[stully]

Well, a bit of a bad news update. The internet man was here today to fix some stuff. While he was here, I set the clones outside. This was the morning mind you. Well, I forg ot about them until late afternoon at which point they were shriveled up and more then likely all dead. I moved them inside and sprayed them, but I doubt they will recover. If they all die, I will be taking some new cuts soon. This sucks.

 

[dfw-guy]

Damn, sucks to hear. Good thing you can always make more clones They were only 8 days old so you didn't loose to much time i guess.

 

[stully]

No, I don't think it is much of a big deal. I will take more cuttings either today or tomorrow. I was trying to avoid chopping it up during flower, but when necessity calls, you got to cut em. I do not want to lose this strain, they are favorable in many ways. I love they way they grow, their shape and other growth characteristics. They are very hardy, do well in humidity, respond well to nutes, they respond well to cropping and they are a fairly quick grower. I might only do a few in rockwool this time. I might try to put a couple in FF right away.We'll see.

 

[Tunes420]

Dam cable people! Sorry to hear man...hope you get some clones ok...sounds like strain worth saving

 

[stully]

Thanks tunes. yeah f the cable guy lol.

 

[stully]

So I just looked in on the scorched clones and I'm a little high, but they seem to be fighting back. I tell you what, if they survive this, I will always keep them going. They will be my strain.

 

[stully]

Ok, so the clones are still battling, but it's doubtful they will make it. I might get one or two out the whole deal. I am thinking about waiting a few more days, and picking the best looking MC and pulling it from the flower cab. I want to wait a little bit longer, even though they are fem seeds, I want to make sure. How bad would it suck to pull a mother and it turns out to be male. Anyways, i will take the cuttings and then keep a mother. I'm going to pull 12 this time. Just to be sure. I will post pics of the mother before and after taking the cuttings, and will cover my technique. Also, i would like to hear some of your techniques. Please share them. I will be trying a few in rockwool again and a few in FFOF in the nursery trays.

 

[Tunes420]

My technice is i take 8 clones kill 4 1/2 and hope the 3 1/2 out of 8 make it.......works every time!

 

[stully]

So this idea of the magic crystal grow has kinda took a shit. I got one that has sufficiently rooted and I potted earlier today. Two other plants are still looking ok, but they show no roots exiting yet. Got to figure out a way to get a pretty good set of clones, but I'm sooo busy..

 

[stully]

Ok, so I got two Magic Crystal clones happily in the FFOF. The roots looked really good and I see no reason why they won't make it. So On account of actually having two healthy clones, I will pull some more cuts tonight. I got to trim some of the undergrowth anyway, so maybe we can salvage this grow.

 

[Tunes420]

Cool.....you have heating pad under clones? the only 3 that made it out of 8 were on my heating pad....and these last 6 didn't even wilt...I have all 6 on there now...others are rooted....But i have different medium than you.

 

[stully]

Allright, quick update. I put too much trust in the feminized seeds that the donor plant was grown from. She was a he. So I'm gonna scratch the MC clone grow. I will be cloning a different plant, and you know what, f it, I'll snip a few more MC just because you guys were so nice to stop by. Be back with a full update soon.

 

[NormanTBates]

That sucks she turned out to be a he. Huh, I think that happened to one of buddies when he was out at a bar.
