    Cloning help? - bit urgent...

    Hi gang,

    Sooo theoretically is this doable? 3 weeks to go and the idea of cloning a really great humbolt blue dream has really been at the forefront of thoughts. No experience, but can it be done with little to no extra material? Can it be done with soil and solo cups and a dome? No trimming of lower materials on the plant so are these options? If so what length and height do you cut? Little help, your know how would be great insight!!

    Giggler, I cut stems that are about 6 inches long. I strip lower leaves and scratch the stem in a few places with a knife edge (more potential root sites). I dip them in rooting powder and then put them in solo cups with my regular soil. I water once thoroughly and then VERY sparingly. Set them under a cfl in a warm place until they start to grow vigorously. Take more than u need. Some will make it, some wont. Its that easy.

      Not that critical really. You can skip cloning powder all together, just helps things along. One thing not mentioned by me or others in this thread is that some varieties clone much more easily than others. Some are hard to get going, others you cant kill even if you tried.

      When you look for rooting powder, check the label for a hormone. Usually its indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) or 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). Also make sure your knife is sterile! Clean it with some isopropyl alcohol..

    You can grow clones with just water man. There are a million and 1 vids on youtube.

    All you need is water and scissors with no investment

            Once you see new growth that means they are rooted. Feel free to transfer them to the tent after that.

            To be honest if I were you, I would look up monster cropping tutorials because that's what you're doing. You should be able to find some help on one of those cuz you're not doing the exact normal cloning.

            Haha, sooooo with very little effort...... this works! So far anyways, how long do you wait to transplant? Snipped dipped and drop into solo cups, but i have no idea s to how long to wait? The leaves didn’t even get crazy, btw.

          And ..... mold on 3 of the four remaining! Damn grey mold. Hadn’t realized the vents on the dome had fallen shut..... that sucks.

            I know this wasn't part of the post, but you could also harvest the plant except for one branch. Throw that back to veg for a few months and clone from there. Just a backup plan in case the clone doesn't root.
