Clone along

[DingusKhan]

Dood, I see nubs on the two immediately behind the one in front, I bet the rest of those start nubbing soon.

 

[DingusKhan]

Here are the current graduates of the cloning section of the grow gher: two mangos in solo cups that have joined the solo cup grow. BigBud went into the hydro bucket, HolyGrail went into a cup of OceanForest, each of those were the tops of the seedling plant.

ALL of these were in biorooters in the humidity dome.

The rest of the cuttings are still running: the micro cuttings in compost or seedling mix in sauce cups,and rockwool cube, all in the Costco Rotisserie Cloner. Also have bare cuttings in bubbling water. These were either pulled from the little media cups in bubbling bin, but not heated. And a few new cuttings.

I had to pot three more clones from the chicken bowl last night.

Welp i'm climbing on board the " clone traaaaain" just took 2 from my JDU mango. Ph water clone gel shot glass on the window seal. Worked for me last time we'll see in a couple weeks.

 

[DingusKhan]

JDU hooked us up with some nice plant, those mangoes clone really easily! And grow fast, I can't wait.

 

[JDU]

They really DO clone nicely don't they! 👍 & they grow like the devil hisself is chasin em lol I'm really glad you like em.

 

[DingusKhan]

Also, SoOrbudgal I'm sorry I didn't get up your way to get that harvested stump from you, but I have been carrying around some Pure Haze Auto seeds in my car with me for you for when I do make it up your way.

 

[JDU]

I still dont know why you didn't take one of these BCP clones Dingus..... I told ya I think one of them was for you.... No worries, We'll get some to ya.

Here's my 2 cuttings taken yesterday sitting on top of my no go solo cup. They are sharing space with old mother Black Cherry who is looking great. They are Mango strain.

 

[Toker1]

How do you like that black cherry strain? I got some seeds of her just waiting for their day.
Good yields and quality final product?

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Toker1 I would love to grow her again. I don't have a scale but I do know I've got thumb size buds off her with of course littler ones but rock hard with the cure 2wks. Great for evening smoke. Funny though had 2 different phenos of her, one with more orange hairs not so purple in the leaf fade the other one picture of how she is suppose to look. It's really pretty to grow purpleish black leaf. I got 2 quart jars off of one and just 1 quart off the other, I was pretty happy with it but I know she'd produce more but I have still 4 plants in my tent so space was an issue.

 

[Toker1]

Thanks! She looks wonderful. I think I know what is next up on deck now. 👍

 

[SoOrbudgal]

OMG Toker1 she smelled like cherry blossoms no lie when I opened the tent. Let her go good and long if you like a good indica she was a joy.

 

[Toker1]

That’s what I was hoping you would say! Thanks for all the great info!!

 

[JDU]

My turn- since I was the one challenged & doubted.... even though I dont remember saying she had a major root system....
Anyways- Mr.furley mentioned that tops are harder & take longer so I topped the tops that I took when I manifolded the Thai Skunk. They were pretty thick & woody so I soaked them for 3days.
Now I fill the cup about 1/2 way, stir a little rooting powder into the top inch & pack it good. Fill it the rest of the way- poke a hole- dip the end in powder & plant it. Mist & cover. We'll see how they do!!

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well JDU I sure hope those take for ya. I've done some woody cuttings and got roots but it may take some time. My Mango clones are only couple days old the mother is pulling at the reins to be set free to flower but I keep wacking her down poor gal.

 

[JDU]

Thanks Budgal. Yeah I hope so too.... I kinda threw down the gauntlet there didn't I lol. Oh well it was meant in a good natured friendly way.

 

[DingusKhan]

Wow, Thai Skunk sounds fun! I hope that works.

If your current attempt doesn't blow your doors off, would you consider setting up a bubble cloner? It's easier than it looks. @Mr.furly gave us all a really nice hack, but it's just a little (shoe box size) tote bin with water and an 8 inch bubble stone with holes in the top for clones. You can get a 10 inch air stone and a little air pump and a grey or black mini tote bin from Walmart for like $15. The cloning collars are cheap from your local grow shop or Amazon.

Do you still have a Mango mother? If not, I decided to pull one of the clones that you gave me, I trimmed her a little hard, and I want to make room for Girls Scout Cookies. But if you need a mother for some nice sized cuttings, I have just the plant that needs a new home. And the rest of mom is ready to flower. I'm just too crowded.

AND if you come get her, I will also send you home with a couple other live clones in cups: a Holy Grail Kush, a BigBud from the seedling you sent home with me, and of course, lots of Mango. Because the bubble cloner works, yo.

 

[JDU]

Thanks Amigo. These are just for the thread- I have the mothers I took them from & the grandmas (I HOPE they're all females) are in the flowering tent but still verging so I'm sure they will offer some green, easy cuttings. I have 5 more seeds if anyone's interested. Regulars.
I know my way isnt the most efficient but I enjoy checkin in on my girls 75-250 times a day & it's hands on enough & nice to have an excuse for a few of those times lmao.
I did top one of the Mangoes just before you took them. I have 4 more Big Bud seeds but I will definitely take a GSC or 2.

 

[JDU]

2 days in (If ya don't count the 3 in the water) - So far so good. I trimmed the hell outta them to avoid WPM & it seemed to stimulate them- except for poor Big Red who I pinched a leaf in the back of the scissors & pulled right outta the ground. But they have had the dome off for almost 2hrs & no sign of wilting yet & the new growth they were throwin when I cut them is still coming in. 🚜
