Moved the clones outside of the dome I see little root nodules on the stemstalk above the grodan but no roots pushing out.... I see leaf discoloring which is nutrients uptake so I will flush and feed low
level ppm like 114 ppm
Here are pics
These are
purple cake#2 mom
Topanga canyon mom
BrideZilla mom
Gg4S1 mom.
And even a BBC mom
All no bugs , no mites , no mold, just long ongoing veg cycle.
I notice on the purple cake
That after the 2pr 3rd nodal on the main trunk the branchingis no longer symmetrical..balanced. It’s offset branching as if it were cloned. But these are all from seed

I cannot say Thankyou enough for all the standup and forthright help you and others here have shared about getting the grow environment setup correctly. That keen coaching has me balls deep in HB cannabis
.I chose the turbokloner 144 to convert my seed moms into clone moms. My 2” seedling moms all in grodan starter cubes got up potted to 6” pots (Walmart)
The 4” grodan moms got moved to the 10” pots(Walmart)
I filled (31) 6” containers & (5) 10” containers with 1bag of 707 22lb bag. Still got a few pots 707 left over. Need to get some grower guidance between two strains.
I have 3 grow trains available for flowering the clones I have created.
1. HB 4gal 10 bucket RDWC.
2. NFT 8’ sluice grow tray
3. floraflex 6’ floor grow tray
All systems are dolly mounted for my ease of movement.
So the two strains of clones are
HB GG4 S1
HB BrideZilla
I am thinking GG4 in the floraflex
BrideZilla I. The NFT but fed by floraflex as well.
I do plan on maintaining 3 mom clones of each strain.

In Closing this grow journal I have learned
1).mother plants require safety of good dirt grow media.
2.) 6” pot w/ ppm feed rate of 144- 190 more than safe.
3.) too much work pruning to maintain small moms for clones.
4)grow mom plant from seed grow to 10” pot take clones.
5) use turbokloner to create bareroot clones of moms
6).Keep inventory of mom strains with turbokloner.
7).Place original seed mom plants into flower after 6 weeks - 4 month veg
8). All plants kept a 18/6 light on off cycle.
9).Floraflex feeding is a requirement once mom plant reaches over 12” tall.

Here is the swing I’m allowing the clones in the cloner
Light t5 100w from the start
5.6 ph - 6.4 ph in one day then correct back to 5.6-5.8ph daily.
Ppm swing full tank 140 - 44ppm.
Water level drop to top of intake of pump then I refill 1-2 gallons distilled water.
Then add :
1 cap of ReZ clear
20ml of clonex solution
1cap = 10ml oF SLF100
Ppm = 180-205
Heavy Mist clones 2x daily
No dome. Humidity 56% 75F
Fan blowing air in room not on clones.
Have not done a water change yet!
Watching the ppm uptake and ph as uncle HB pointed out in his YouTube videos.
Seriously
thinking 
115 gallon botanicare Rez with lid
Make my 9in centers spacing holes in the lid throw 2”net pots and veg and flower in an oversized cloner
In a 4x8 space
will see

Oh and just so you're aware. You'll most likely have to replace your neoprene collars on the clonee after thr veg out. Them thick stalks blow out the collar holes.

We officially are now in flowerIt’s been 40 days since we upotted to 6” Potts now we’re up potted again
To 10” pots and flipping to flower.
Pics tomorrow...
At 10:20pm
12/12 10am - 10pm
Bloom nutrients all setup
GH 3part + Gh additives
490ppm. 6.2 ph 74.6 f

I think I'm gonna have trouble even more through the next 5weeks.
I run the room sealed with 2.5 ton mini split 3 fans
I pull almost 4-4.5 gal of condensation a day
I have the (4 ) CO2 bags now activated full white.
My humidity keeps climbing into the 70-80
I think I have too many plants in the space.
I have brought fresh air in & exhausted and I drop my humidity
Back to normal 41-54%rh
But as soon as I seal it up (close the door) she climbs back up even while venting.
I plan on removing a 12x12 pane glass from the window & pull filtered air (12x12x2 filter)from outside into the room.
The last five weeks are going to be (walking on eggshells)

Up potted all the 6” pot plants that completed the first 5 weeks of flower.
We have 5 more weeks to build buds.
I pretty much left only the purple mac
Un touched no defoliationfor that plant. Here are the ten up potted let’s see if they explode or just put put for the next and last 5 weeks of flower.
I going for a full 10 weeks for all strains in the room and the clones as well. Everything is in a 10” Walmart plastic pot. Holes drilled in bottom with cotton battin at bottom to keep soil from running out.
I flora flex feed every 2-3 days
And hand water the extras that have no flora flex set up yet.

Start of week 6 of flower going to 10 weeks on all strains. Today I attacked the whole flower grow against the start of powdery mildew. I used green cleaner mixed 1/2 ounce to 1 gal as inst. States. Fans ac all full on as usual. With a hand squeeze bottle
spray I soaked down each rack top to bottom sides and all. With this method I can see the air flow move the spray through the grow. I ve got excellent airflow so my spray followed the pathways the pm spores did. Plus I drenched the girls to top bottom
1 gallon of application over a 10x12
Grow area. It’s the safest effective application for my medicine plants.
I used it once before in veg before flipping to flower. I will use this through finish 4more weeks as preventative. I feel a lot better being able to use this as my first offense in flower against Pm spores room RH went to 85% during application so the mini split got it as well spores die everywhere fine by me. My green cure arrives tomorrow should I need to get
Hardcore on a final assault on Pm.
Pictures in about 1/2 hour .

So here are pics 2hrs after using
green-cleaner on week 6 flower.
This is a HB ECSD pheno it has been turning red hairs before all others before I sprayed as well.
More ECSD trichs are still full!
Here is the next rack treated
So happy that it removed the PM
ASAP... not a white spore spot to be seen.
Now the 3rd rack as well
There’s just so many ways to mess a grow up.. to little ,too much.... just to get a chance to grow some bud of fire and make it to the end to put it in a jar
.
So I did notice the smell in the room quieter, I’ll chk in the morning for spring back of the ladies.

Everything remains sticky and al la fragranced. 
2 days into week 7 I see lots of ambering hairs amongst the many buds
I’m now up to 720ppm with the
Gh nutes using expert feed chart.
My last 70gal feeding Rez was@ 550-620ppm
So this will be my peak feeding since the expert chart is taking it out to 12 weeks. My 70 gallon Rez botanicare
I have also stop auto feeding with the floraflex. I wanna see more individual
Growing demands from each strain.
Hand watering and holding back until the soil is dry by the plant leaf slightly
Droops gives me the feedback on the strains happiness in my grow environment.
My Rez is aerated by air stones & a fountain pump inside. 24/7.
I hoping this next 60 gallon batch gets used up throughout week 8.
Here is the feedchart and nutes start dropping out towArd the end of my instruction based grow.
Wk 7 remove flora blend. (Aroma)
Wk 8 coast
Wk9 remove flora gro. (Nitrogen)
Wk9 remove diamond nectar (weight)
Wk9 incr 8ml flora bloom
Wk9 incr 2.5 liquid koolbloom
So wk9 follow instruction I make 1/2 batch in gallons from 60 to 30.
Cause week 10 requires dropping more nutes from the feeding.
Yes hand watering into the finish
Seems smart.
