The small one is a clone that rooted about 7/8 weeks ago. Its just started to shew some encouragement this week. I remember last years when i changed the light cycle from 12/12 to 24/7 started shewing these extraordinary leaves that just didnt look like they came from a tomato at all ! Please contact me if you have had a similr experience. This small one seems to have been going through that stage for the last 4 weeks and has hardly grown at all. Its just the last couple of days that its improved. At this stage last time the small one had leaves the size of cabbage leaves at this stage but it was under a 600w light 24/7
The larger one was given to me and was originally in soil. I washed off most of the soil immediately and its been in the bubbler for around 3/4 weeks now. At first it didnt like the change at all and I wondered if I had bolloxed up the nutrients (the soil it was in before may have been fairly rich, I reckon) I bumped it up with 1 cap full of Advance Hydroponics mix (organic) 1, 2 and two caps of No 3. There is about 15 litres of water (Which just to be on the safe side, i boiled first to get rid of the chlorine and obviously let it cool down before using it.) I havent got a ph metre so i cant give you what the level is, all I can say is its improved so much I have decided to call it Lazarus (exceppt Lazza was a chico and im hoping for a muchacha.
Im developing (badly) my website which has pictures of my last years grow www.bonkers.page.tl leave me a message on my guestbook if you go there.
Im going to post an update on both plants as well as the strawberry and at a pricklypear cactus that I liberated from soil They are all growing in the same bubbler box
email me any questions or sugestions
Good luck, God bless
