Grow Mediums A little help please

[Hanzo-hattori]

so I’m just going over the math. I want to run a 15 plant flower tent with a alien flood and drain system. I will have a mother tent and run clones from her. I want to grow my clones out for 2/3 weeks before transplanting into flower room to veg one more week/root into the flood and drain pots is this ok? Would I grow them in small pots of coco then transplant? What the most efficient and effective way to go about it? Appreciate all your help

Ill take a stab at it.
15 pots? Thats a lot of space for a tent. The reccomended space is 4 square ft/ plant. 2 feet between them basically. There are exceptions for this, sog/scrog of course and it seems most people dont follow this rule anyway so you should be fine.

If your running 15 plants In grow Im assuming you have a different system for the mother. (I have no experience with clones full disclosure) I just know that running her off the same system your running bloom nutrients in might not work out well.

And last but not least. I know that you want to avoid transplanting as much as possible. Either way I would start them in something like rockwool. This would make it easier to transplant to your flood and drain system and cause less stress on the roots. But I would try to get them into there final grow medium from the start if possible. Like I said Im not sure on how cloning works so Im talking in general terms.

I hope some thing I saod ends up useful. If not, Im sorry I wasted your time reading this lol.

lol it’s all good bro, well I had a change of mind I’m doing 12 in a 1.4m x 3.6m using alien RDWC but the same problem applys I want to run a continuous flower tent so I need to veg separate. So I’ll have my mother in soil in a veg tent, take cutting out then put them in rock wall and then I’m lost as to what to do next, Either grow them in coco then transplant or grow them in a bubbler but I’m pretty sure the roots would get tangled so I would need a more complex set up. Maybe one of the hydro pros will have some light to shed huh

Maybe make post in the photo period section as well. Id ask in live stoner chat who has experience with photos and cloning. Im sure someone there will tag an expert. Good luck!
