    reusing of any growing medium is a bad idea... I would try to get some new rockwool cubes.. plus us want the really small ones... like 1"x1" for clones... also make sure u use a cloning gel.. I recommend Rootech...

    i got my cloning solution and new cubes but can i use just my esu grow juice to wet my rockwool? and not the superthrive

    Superthrive is better. ST is a hormone mix that targets root growth and development. Your regular ferts don't target root growth.

    It is expensive, but a little goes a long way. Use 1-2 drops per gallon when you water, that's all you need.

    if your running low on rockwool cubes when you get your next batch you can cut them in half maybe even 1/4 just make sure the bottom of the stem isnt exposed to much

    Yeah you can cut them 2" cubes from one corner to the other, right across the middle, leaving two triangles, it's enough room for clones or seedlings to start, I know a grower that does this to save on cubes.

    i know this is way off topic but plz repy while i still have time to do this.my buddy said he got his kronic alot earlier than sept/oct.he put a couple plants in budding on 12/12 for the first week of may for the second week it was 11 hours of dark and 13 hours light.the third week it was 10 dark and 14 light. it was budding nicely and he brought it outside to see if it would continue the budding process. And it did. he harvested on the second week of july and he showed me a very dense bud.it was identical to what avg. weed looks like. there were not very many chrystals but busting with blistering mouth watering orange hairs. is this true? can people do this like my buddy did? or do me and my friend smoke too much weed?

    Jung, My plant is doing this right now. I still havn't found out what the light cycle is in the south east states but my plant has exploded with buds since I transplanted outdoors.

    I flowered it for 2 weeks indoors under a 100w hps then was forced to move her outdoors. Only to see that she has exploded in new growth after 2 days outside and now buds are forming all over the plant!!! Go for it

    i wish i could do it but im in canada and im covered in snow and its raining turning the city to ice. some days in the winter of last year i could wear shorts...weather is fucked and i blame it on Suddam Hussein.i have a sneaky suspicion hes stealing my socks too...

    **unrealated topic**
    i have this light and im pretty sure its a 400w hps.it gives off this orangeish glow and gets very hot.is this a hps? when i use to grow i had a problem with the internodes being way too spaced out and it was as close to the light as i could put it without my plant burning i had too much vertical growth and barely any horizontal growth.my plants looked like skiny pip squeeked bitches but with nine pointed (i never thought this was possible)giant leaves.they were sooo huge many were bigger than basketballs way bigger.it was the one good thing i truly could brag about (not to much bragging).the light was around 10 to 15 maybe 20 inches away.the seeds were supposedly found in frozen ice in upper canada by my grandfather a couple decades ago and was once pollinated by the stain "king" in british columbia and its been passed on as it will be for years. can seeds even be preserved in ice wrapped in leather or did he just make up some bull **** when he was drunk?thanx fer yer time i hope i didnt waste it!:beerchug:

    never re-use medium. rockrool is not that expensive so use new wool every time you clone or raise seeds.
