It's Been about 20 Years Since Last Grow

Couldn't take the almost daily trimmings on this Mendo. She got a haircut tonight before bedtime.
I was gonna wait until day 21, something I read somewhere. But, the guy I got the clone from stated he takes all lower branches prior to putting into flower. I still could've taken more, but I'll give it a few days.

Something strange happened. I believe one of my "sick" plants went into flower while on 18/6 light schedule. I went looking for an explanation and got everything from "that's impossible" to "stress induced". Obviously it's not impossible, and the plant was definitely stressed. So, stress induced it is. Crazy! I couldn't believe it at first. Pics attached.
I went ahead and just moved it into my flowering tent. Not sure of what kind of yield I'll get, if any, but nothing to lose at this point. I did pull a cutting from it with some healthy growth that hasnt rooted yet. If space become necessary a d no major change, I'll just toss it. Although it does have some serious root growth finally starting.

This is the Power Plant. Probably tied for doing the best, along with the Critical Mango. Only concern is some browning of the root system, not slimy though. It continues to grow new white roots. I've been told it's fine. I've been told its the start of root rot. I upped the air/oxygen input and have Hydroguard on order.

After doing my nute change I have had a couple scares with my Critical Mango. The evening after the change the plant started to droop on top. I looked underneath and there was white foam in the reservoir. So, I switched it to an empty bucket - the SW went I to the flower tent. It perked up some by morning. Before heading up to bed last night I had the same thing happening, droopy leaves on top, but worse. So, I went ahead and did a complete reservoir cleaning and change. This morning I woke up to a healthy looking, perky plant again.
I also changed my air pumps. I moved the 50w from the flower tent, supplying just 3 buckets to the veg tent with 5 buckets. The 32w went to the flower tent and I shut off 3 ports. I also changed out some air stones, no more Wallyworld bar stones.
Now just waiting on my Hydroguard from Amazon, which is a couple stops away.

Also wanted to share the results of the FIM'd cutting - **** I Missed! It actually was a "mistake" that works! At this point I can only see 4 new shoots/stems from 1 cutting, but it's still early. Supposedly you can get as many as 8, which is too many for my space. I'll be happy with just the 4.

And my trouble girl, the Critical Mango. She had/has the start of root rot I believe. However, after adding Hydroguard a new bunch of white hairs have started. Today, she seemed as though she was a healthy plant again. Waiting on some Great White and EWC to make some tea. That will hopefully take care of any dead matter and get the new growth protected. The only issue is that the ingredients wont be here until Friday then brew for two days. So, the earliest day to start is Sunday, which happens to be the next nute change.
