My first time doing a post, reporting my first time farming (:
This seed came from Europe. The plant is 3 months old, in an improvised greenhouse in a closet and providing us with many experiments.
We are using about 150 kWh, without controlling the temperature or humidity (we do not yet have devices for this)
A small fan keeps the cabinet airy.
I thought these plants did not need much water, until I realized I was wrong.
I have some doubts, would be grateful if you guys could answer me.
Questions:
1 - How much water do you use daily?
2 - At the stage of flowering, is it possible to clone the plant?
3 - How much Kwh for each stage?
1 - How much water do you use daily?
I only read a few comments before I decided to respond... None of us can tell you an exact number to what you are searching for. Growing cannabis has too many variables to be 100% correct so let me give you a guide instead.
When you water wait till the plant begins to show signs of wilting before watering. Roots need three things, water, oxegen, and food. If you over water or under water you will see signs of potential root rot, nats, slowed or stopped growth just for starters. It is important to recognize your plants reasons for crying just like a baby that can not talk.
When you grow keep a journal. The next time around you will be able to be faster at detecting an issue and you will have an idea based off of your individual variables. Heat, humidity, plant size, pot size, medium, and much more come into account when tracking the amount of water being consumed in a soil grow.
What I suggest is learning as much as you can growing in a soil medium because you have more time to correct the issues then change mediums as soon as possible and introduce a drip system or dwc.
2 - At the stage of flowering, is it possible to clone the plant?
If you take a clone in the first two weeks of your flowering phase ( also known as the transition period,) you will have them back in veg in less than a week. If not cut your clones before these weeks, if not your only going to loose product when your cutting off your colas... It's worthless doing that.
3 - How much Kwh for each stage?
Again, variables come into play. Signs of stress to look for are burned tips on the fan leaves and bear clawing where the tips curl down and in. I usually run about 600watts starting at week four on my clones when they first go into veg. I bump up 200 watts each week till I hit my 1200 watts and then flip to flower. I have LEDs with both the blue spectrum and red spectrum... I run both spectrums for both weeks of transition and drop to the full red spectrum in the third week or first week of flower (if you keep your transition period seperate of flower).
I hope that helps. Any more info needed hit me up any time... I don't know everything by any means but what I do know, I know the reason in why what I do works. Which is more important in my oppinion. especially when your investing so much money into your grow. So much faulty information out there.
helped a lot. thanks for the knowledge.
Take this worthless upvote.
In my personal opinion no upvote is worthless. Getting an upvote, to me, just let's me know I was able to help in some way or I provided material someone wanted... I'm not in this for the money... It is a nice nice bonus of course, but I want to grow with this platform hoping for it to over through greedbook.
Your questions are common, I asked the same things... I was surprised when you didn't ask how much you would get lol... That's another question one can only assume lol.

Thank you in advance!
hahah, a bot for newcomers... that's funny. thx for the upvote
Killer. Nice work!
And plants need as much water as they can have. You can feel when the pot gets light. It will run off. Question is how much water are you using?
Cloning... You can donut but it's not going to like going back into vegetate growth.
And 3? ??? I just paid the bill and kept going!

thank you !
didn't know about the Monster Cropping. Will look for that.
And the illumination, i need to do something about that.
You may want to give them some organic bloom nutrients also, it will help development and yield. I recommend Botanicare bloom mixed with Liquid Karma. I would not clone from this stage, but you can. Do you top your plants?
I want to clone cause it's really hard to get a strain like that where i live.
Yes, in the Early Stages
