I some sticky traps and predatory mites to hopefully deal with my thrips. I found a local Facebook group that does group buys on beneficial insects to save shipping costs. Pretty cool.

Mainlining is going well. I think I'm going to go up to 16 stems.

Anyone here use an aeroponic cloner? I made one and am trying to figure out if I need to use nutrients. I was hoping I can just use plain water and put them in dirt as soon as they show roots.

Yes you can use plain water only, it will only slow down the rooting process by several days. I personally use my regular nutrient solution but in lower concentration so when I transplant them and start feeding nutrients, they won't get shocked. Just remember to replace the water every 2-3 days and make sure the water temps aren't too hot/cold. I set 30 mins on and 30 min off intervals to prevent the water from heating up
Thanks. Yeah I have been looking at different things about the cycle times. One person even said 2 min on 20 min off to combat high temps. Sounds like I'll have to just experiment and check the temps.

Halloween clones. I have it on 15 minutes cycle with just pH balanced tap water. I used dip-n-grow for rooting hormone. I put a few in jiffy pellets as well just in case. I hope it works I have some trades lined up.

I met up with some dude and traded him clones of my Romulan strain for seeds of Alaskan Ice. It’s like trading pokemon cards except weed strains.

This is kind of interesting. Yesterday I accidentally broke the stem of one of my clones. I wrapped some tape around it hopefully to save it. Today it is the first one to show roots. It's like the damage triggered something in the plant.

I have roots on a few clones now. Pretty happy with the results on just ph balanced tap water in the cloning machine. I just balance the pH once a day but even that's probably unnecessary. I think I need to take bigger cuts next time, mine were on the small side and the few that died were small ones.

A.k.a said: You did a great job keeping it low and wide.
It depends how big you want it to get, looks like you’ve got enough soil to let it get a lot bigger if you wanted to. I kept my plants low and wide like that for my first maybe 5 grows and then realized I had been missing out on prob 10 inches of canopy depth. So now I let them grow a little taller before flipping.
Thanks I think I will let it go longer then. The strain is Romulan which I think is supposed to be short too.

Lot's of people on the subreddit /r/notillgrowery are using them. I almost tried one but decided to just get a big fabric bed instead. Home Depot sells a different brand called city pickers that works the same way. Seems like a pretty cool idea, almost like a mix of hydro and soil.

I'm still a no-till noob myself. I started with about 40 gallons of coots mix that I made with worm castings I bought from a local worm breeder. All I do is water with recharge and top dress with down to earth 4-8-4 and worm castings. I recently bought an air pump for compost tea but haven't tried it yet. I'm only on my second grow since I started the bed.
Edit: Also I haven't tried cover crops yet. I was avoiding it because it seems messy. I listened to a podcast recently that recommended dichondra as a good cover crop for indoor cannabis and might try that some day.

The number one benefit of cover crops is that everyone knows you do no-till when you post pics. Bragging rights 😎.

I grow in my garage and now that it's getting cold my temps were dropping as low as 58 at night. I added 2 75 watt reptile heaters to the tent which seems to be exactly what I needed. I like these things vs a space heater.
