I’m reusing my last grow with super soil. Dumped all the old soil in a container, mixed it really well and use that as base soil. Only soil I get is what I make a batch super soil.

I guess what I’m asking is, what soil do you buy when you do need more base soil?
Hmmmm our little furry friends love getting upto mischief. My kitten ate half of a seedling on my first grow, this morning I found her curled up around my clones under the warmth of the T5 lights lol.

My clones also looking very sad 
i doubt they’ll be alive when I get back from holiday in a fortnight
You’ll get there. I’m on my fifth grow and just starting. I’ve had plenty of time to research and watch people do it here.

If you have an Aloe Vera plant cut off a leaf from it and squeeze the jelly from the center into some water mix it up and water the clones with it.
If clones are in a clone bucket where you have access to the roots/lower stem you can use the Aloe cutting and stick the clone bottom stem into the Aloe leaf center and get the jelly all over where the roots should be growing.
This helped save 2 of my clones that otherwise wouldn’t have made it.
I ended up removing the 2 clones with virtually no roots after 2 weeks in clone bucket and put them in soil as they were definitely not gonna survive any longer in the bucket…used aloe when doing so as well

I used the root it sponges with root it cloning gel, soaked the sponges in diluted superthrive, Iv had them under t5 lights 24/7 for 3 days in red cups with domes over, moved them into my veg tent now to see if they do any better in there with their parents. They are all the tops of the parent plants but I have brown crinkling on the leaves now

Exactly two years.
It took them about 2 1/2 weeks before they were transplanted. I used clonex and rapid rooters.

Man, two years 4 gross and now on the fifth, that is how I figure it. Grow, harvest and cure, at.least 6 months, maybe even 7 or 8?
I do short veg times 5 to 6 weeks. My last grow was 14 weeks start to finish. I plant only photos indoor because I feel I can grow them just as quick as an auto, get a bigger yield and get to train my plants without adverse affects. I save autos for an early outdoor summer harvest.
