    Default Need advice on a photoperiod grow

    Hi all,
    Taken the plunge and I’ve decided to try a photo grow. After my last grow (first time) was 3 autoflowering I’d like to try my hand at a photoperiod grow.
    Il be growing in :
    1x1x2 Trojan tent
    600w hps dual spec
    Clip on fan
    B&Q multi verve
    15ltr plastic round pots
    I’ve got some Organicus - recommended by a few lads here.
    Got some clay pebbles to put a layer at the bottom of the pots.
    And I’ve got some some mycorrhiza.

    Basically, I’ve got 4 cuttings. School boy error unsure of the strain I think they are Sativa by the look of the leaves. How long do you veg photos for before the flip?
    Can you top a cutting?
    For future reference, can you take a cutting from a cutting?
    Will I need any other nutes apart from Organicus?
    I will be Lst to make the most out of my space.
    Anything else I need to know? Cheers in advance

    the longer they veg the bigger they get, if it's a heavy sativa i would probably veg for 2-5 weeks
    yes you can top cuttings/clones
    ask Blue/gaz about organicus
    yes you can take cuttings from cuttings time and time again,

    How big do you want um to get?? in a 1x1 i would veg 1-2 weeks depending on size of cut! Bare in mind sativa likes a good stretch iv had um more than triple in size, stretching well into week 4!


    Can you top a cutting?

    Of course, you can top multiple times if you like.


    For future reference, can you take a cutting from a cutting?

    Yeah

    Will I need any other nutes apart from Organicus?

    Batshit for teas in flower, molasses, great white, and maybe some charge... assuming your going the organic route thats what id use.

    ATB with your grow

    if the clones are well established you can get away with less veg, i used to take clones, root them over a week then veg for 2-3 weeks and flip
    they still grew to over 4' tall

    clones are super quick compared to seeds,
    do have a question, are these tried and tested clones or just random clones you got gifted?
    have seen people get clones that ended up male hence the question

    The 2 on the right look half decent, the closest one on the left also looks good but small and the back left looks quite shitty lol. The 2 on the right are really tall and skinny so they need a bit of support standing until the stems get stronger.
    Yes these are tried and tested, close friend of my brother who keeps a mother and takes these clones. The ones he has in flower are clones and they are so big haha.
