I have 3 plants and was wandering about taking clones. It would be much cheeper for me because last time I Bought seeds that cost me about £10 each. Does anyone know of any good sites that explain how to do it? Or can anyone explain it themselfs? I know roughly what to do but dont know exactly where to cut ect. I have another problem though that I dont really have anywhere to put them that will have enough hours of light. I live in the uk and dont know if we still have enough hopurs of light for vegie and my other plants are allready on 12/12. Any ideas guys? Thanks for the help.

well ur plant should be at 18/6.. and they should be cloned at 18/6, when its under the impression its summer. find good looking branches.. but not the ones that stand off another branch.. snip those off...

cut that good branch at a 45º angle and immediately dip it in rooting solution. plant it and put it back in the 18/6 rotation. Do this for as many clones as u want, I guess but don't over do it.. Give it about 2 weeks, then move ONLY ONE to the 12/12 so it can bud. When thats done you can tell whether ALL of'm are a male or female.. Males, throw'm out.. or dry'm out n make tea... If its a female, throw out the clone you sent to the 12/12 and let the other clones grow a little more so you can move them to the 12/12.

There is a sticky on cloning in the basic forum with pictures and detailed instructions.
