Question

It does allot for my sanity to get your stamp of approval on my plans. I've read so much but I only have one crop of actual experience.  Even then,( with the Cervantes book in one hand the whole time ) 24 plants produced about 14 oz's in 12 wks. The plants had brown tips on the leaves and the buds won't burn. Can you tell if I did anything wrong? Please refer to the book mentioned above for the nutrient directions that I followed.

Answer

I would have to say that you burnt your plants with fertilizers. The strength of nutrients in the book mentioned is way too strong unless you have a full hydroponics system with good water circulation. Leaves getting brown tips and buds that won't burn are the trade mark of using too much nitrogen and not flushing it out before harvesting. 

Question

To better facilitate cloning,  I've designed a plywood and Plexiglas cloning chamber.  Will employing the chamber only increase my success rate or will it decrease the rooting time also?  

Answer

Building a sealed chamber for growing clones will help to retain moisture and humidity needed for clones to survive while they are rooting so I'd have to say that it would help.
