Aloha one and all~
I've been "lurking" for a few weeks in anticipation of this grow project so lemme begin by saying that, 1.) I have missed you all terribly and, 2.) :holysheep: Congrats to ROSEBUD! Am I (or was I) loaded or didn't I see ur name in RED? I am so looking forward to catching back up on all ur grow journals and in "catching back up" with you in general, so lemme begin.
Today marks 4 wks. into my very first (successful) cloning project and I will attempt to give a brief discription of what's going on thus far:
I took 12 cuttings each because I was certain the "mortality-rate" to be much lower but to my surprise they all lived... kinda. I am beginning to understand when I read "strain-specific" they're not joking around. Its so different doing it from a seed, I had no idea how different these clones would act, the difference in the "rooting" and taking root was staggering in an interesting way.
My indica SWD (BC Sweet Dreams) rooted first and quick and was strong and transplanted after about 10 days. The Sour Diesel took about a week after that and the AK-47 about a week after that which currently brings us to this week of everyone doing well in dirt... almost.
I am currently usung a mixture of FF soils ammended with geo-hummus but seems like my soil is reading a higher PH then usual. I mean it use to always be right at 6.8-7.0, but now is like 7.0-7.2. Is that ok for the nutes to be able to absorb? I did NOT put any dolomite in and I prolly should have.
Anyway... I am having a problem with the indica. It rooted first, grew fast, and then when I transplanted it the leaves got kinda thick, and krinkle-ee and thicker, and does not look right. My camera is not that great and I cannot find an instance of it in the threads here either, well not exactly.
The other thing is that the SoD's (sour diesel) leaves are twisting a lil. Just a few but I believe I read N deficiency. Wondering how that could be since I just put them in awesome dirt.
The AK is fine so far, the last to bloom and the most beautiful (and healthy) of all. Weird... jus sayin. OK... and now for my next trick I will attempt to recall in my brain how exactly to up load pictures :laugh:
Much aloha~
Indica SwD and her "rough and krinkle-ee" leaves.

-SoD -SoD and her twisted leaves.
-AK-47, so far she's ok. -My backwoods set up, so to speak.
