The Dark Alley Club - Sad, seedy loners welcome.

I had a lot of MtG cards, once.
Lots of Beta cards, most of Arabian Nights, full sets of Antiquities, Legends, The Dark, and Fallen Empires to name a few.
I also choose denial.

All I need is a Machine Gun Crab Deck (plus twiddle, maybe?)
Legends killed the game for a bit until they ruled you couldn’t use them on tournament play. The last set to come out right before I started playing had a V symbol (I forget the name) but it was that set I went to Dragon Con and got like 1000 free “incentive card” every attendee was supposed to get 1 card (remember I know the promoters) it was the Nalanthi Dragon. I made about 4000.00 off a 500.00 investment. That’s how I at least remember the card so well.
 
Later today a bunch of people are gonna see all this activety in my thread and think I posted a bunch of updates... and shortly thereafter their gonna be like, wtf are these guys talking about? Lol
Dude, I want to apologize for this blatant car jacking of your thread. I’m sorry, but we started talking about comics and.....
Dude.... I’m sorry!!!

Well, disaster has struck again. I was actually really sick from Sunday until yesterday and barely checked on the garden. Turns out at some point, probably just before that, the timer for the flower tent failed. Obviously timers fail all the time, but in a first for me, this one failed ON. I didn't catch it because I was just checking the tents after the light should have been on anyways, and I wasn't being as attentive as usual.

Yesterday I noticed a few things looked stressed but I chalked it up to neglect. Today it was obvious though... the Xanadu was clearly revegging. I always keep extras so I swapped it out and were back on track, but now I have to decide what to do about these girls...

The TPRxBCK and Crazy Hazey were finishing up anyways so they'll just come down. The Xanadu is jacked so she's probably coming down too. The BT19 x KA5 had just hit the tent so their completely unaffected....

The question is all the in-between stuff. I've never had anything like this happen so I'm not sure how well plants recover from a reveg... anyone have any input?

The upside is I guess I have room for this Gorilla Hammer and the Apple Sundae I've had in veg for a while now!
 
Also this bubble cloner can suck it. All the cuts are slimey, no roots. I got some iso alcohol and I'm gonna clean it really thoroughly and run some through the pump. Give it one more shot.... I'm also going to stick some cuts in plugs as well. I need to get some backups going again so I can flower these moms. One of these days I'll figure this out...

Started = STOPPED don’t know how I missed that.
 
hah nice copa and I use the same packaging. Been wondering where that dude is at. Havent heard a peep since harvest last fall, but others assured me he's still good.

I'm tellin ya, solo cups, sandwich bags, and grodan cubes. No easier, cheaper, lazier, more successful way to clone!

See, I was doing that before and all my cuts were just turning yellow and dieing! But I'm gonna try again since this expensive piece of garbage isn't any more reliable...

And ya, Copa was supposed to send me some testers to run then he just went silent so I was happy to see the freebie as a sign of life...

In my experience cuts turning yellow means there is too much light. It's cannibalizing itself for nutrients since the light is forcing it to try to grow.

I had the same problem as you when I made a cloner. First run, roots in 5 or 6 days, but after that it was a rapid deterioration. I think I was never able to properly sanitize it for subsequent runs and ended up with mushy stems and dead cuts.

Went to mini-hempys in small clear plastic cups and life has been good.

I don't know much about bubble cloners, but I bleach my aerocloners after every run.
But in the good news department... mail call!! Both orders came with unexpected freebies too!

Those Roasted Garlic Margys look intriguing, especially since they are Regs. Positive vibes...

Some shots of the TPR x BCK as they came down. The shorter pheno, which showed more purple, has a really interesting nose to her. Hard to describe, little skunky, little rubber, little bitter. Excited to try that one. Tall pheno has a much more mild nose, more grassy and pine.

I'm really not sure what to do with these. They all reacted differently, but they all look terrible. Anything that isn't showing signs of reveg, namely the Chem Sis and ASS S1, look cooked (sorry @Dino Party). The leaves are yellow or necrotic, the buds look burned. I have more of everything, so part of me wants to just chop everything. Crazy Hazey is the only one that doesn't look too severely affected and she was probably coming down next week either way.

I don't really have anything ready to flower for the first time in ages, but I've been running perpetual for about a year straight, it might be a good time to take a breather, just run the 3 BT19 x KA5 for now. Give me an opportunity to really clean the tent, get reorganized. I was planning on slowing down a bit, going back to slightly larger plants. Trying some growing methods that don't require watering every single day.

Im not going to call this a blessing in disguise, cause honestly it sucks. But it's not all awful I guess. And I'm gonna give them a few days to see what they look like. But I'm just not sure it's worth the hassle or the stress to the plants to try and get these to the finish line. I don't even remotely need the bud.
