Did I do something wrong and ruin mom? *pics*

[Biggins]

I took clones 21 days ago and my mother looks like this now, no regrowth from the old shoots, has just sat stagnantly. Did I do something wrong in cloning and ruin my mom? I'm worried! All help is very much appreciated, thank you.

Well from what I know your not supposed to take clones right from the stem of the plant

So what can I do to fix my error and bring back growth?

you can use one of the clones as a mom. they will after all be an exact genetic replica.

headshake, i've read other topics and saw some claims along the line of making clones from clones doesnt produce good yield or is just bad.. was that a rumor?

My bro and me have kept the same mom alive for 5 years. Not by keeping the same one but by replacing her with her clone once a year or so. The only thing I have seen different is a couple of the clones now have some varigated leaves. There is really no such thing as clones from clones, it is still the same mother plant.

In South Carolina there is a Tea plantation I am going to. The Tea bushes were brought here almost 200 years ago from China. The Tea is all the same mother plant from then and continues to be cloned to replace old ones. I am going to get cuttings from there to start my own Tea and because genetics are heirloom.

Can you imagine a 200 year old MJ plant ?

Yes I can, but can't site you for you right now. But I can tell you that landrace Thai sativa has been field grown with femminized seeds for well over 200 years.

Here's an interesting note for you all;
I'm not sure anyone here is aware that the plant, salvia divinorum, has been "asexually propagated thru cuttings" that we refer to as clonning, has been cultivated this way for so long (1000+ years) that the plant has lost it's ability to set viable seeds or pollen. It can only be propaged via cuttings.
