My clones

[Wannabebotanist23]

So a few weeks ago I took clones from my flowering plants and this is just an update, I want with about 12-13 clones and 10 took roots and 7 reveged, I'm still surprised how good at cloning I am, pictures to come soon

Do you use "Clonex"?

[Wannabebotanist23]

Nope just dirt and water!!

[Wannabebotanist23]

This is why I want to be a botanist, hence the name lol

[Karlee]

Change that name you are a botanist. Plants looking like this doesn't just happen baby!

[Wannabebotanist23]

Thanks Kaylee, when I move i plan to have a clone, veg and flowering tent, so my babies could be better taken care of, it's kinda sad knowing I'm only going to use 2 of them and the rest will be bunny food lol

So, Wannabebotanist23, whats the secret behind your procedures?? Do you just cut them at an angle and dirt them? Do you water or mist them? Humidity domes? Sorry to to ask so many questions, just with results like yours!! "inquiring minds want to know!"

[Wannabebotanist23]

Well what I do is take the cuttings, I try for an angle cut but no big deal if I don't and I put them in moist dirt immediately so air doesn't get it the cutting, then I spray the leaves with water when they look dry and for the first 3-4 days I have them on full 24 hour light and then I switch to a 18/6 grow( only to keep my clones from growing super fast because I only have 1 grow space and my mother plants are still flowering, so for the meanwhile I have my clones in a 5 gallon fish tank with a daylight clf for light. Nothing special about my methods, it's just what I'm comfortable with

[Chemichael]

I'm asking too. And where did you cut them from? How long was original plant vegging?

[Wannabebotanist23]

Well if you don't count the 3 weekso they were in my clones fish tank they were in Veg for maybe 3.5 weeks, they grew really fast, I originally planned for a 2 month veg but I was blessed with fast growth

[Chemichael]

Thats something I need to look out for. I have this thing in my head that I am going to let them veg for another week and then set them up for flowering. I can see that a few are ready now - even after last weeks topping- they are going nuts. I feel like if I dont get them started, ill have even bigger monsters that I cant technically deal with now.

[Wannabebotanist23]

Yeah that's why I always switch when they get close to half the hight of my grow room because I know they are either going to double in size and I use led lights so I can't let them get too close without having to worry if that's too close

[Cracker08]

Awesome!! Simplicity at its most perfect!!!

[Wannabebotanist23]

Right!! That's why I love it lol and I'm so glad I worked out 80% of my problems before I really tried to grow seriously, rip test plants you served me well

[Joshnup2]

Congrats you should be proud they look great! And just cut to dirt with that high of a % amazing!! Keep it up

[Wannabebotanist23]

Thanks, I try to keep it simple and when it's so simple it's easier to target what's going wrong I feel
