Clones from Flowering Plant

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I just had success cloning two cuttings from one plant that was two weeks onto flowering. One cutting was a branch that broke enough that I said fuck it, I'll try and clone it. The other was a smaller sucker that was growing from low on the stem and was starting one bud. Both rooting and tomorrow getting potted.

I used rockwool plugs on both with them in a small pan. I used rooting powder and a solution of 1/2 gal of water with a half tblsp of Big Bloom, and also used the same to mist them. Roots can be seen on the one on the left. I just gave them a shot of the mix with a 1/4 tsp Grow Big. They need a little more after two weeks rooting. :D

i just saved my G13 strain because i let the mother veg outside and she decided to flower and i hadnt taken any off at the time :cursing: . got lucky because the first time i tried they didnt root. kinda scared me cause it was the first time i had clones that wouldnt take- and it couldnt happen at a worse time. but i got a good mother plant now from a snip i took off it 3 weeks into flowering. it takes a little longer for them to do their thing but atleast you didnt lose the strain.:thumbsup:

I bought some rooting hormone to use when taking cuttings for clones. Then when I got home, read the label and it says "do not use on plants that are to be used for food or feed." So I was afraid to use it...

The active ingredient in this stuff is Indole-3-butyric acid. Anyone have experience using this product?

Thanks! :hippy:

I've used rootec in the past. don't have any right now, but its worked well for me. The stuff I used this time is called Greenlight Rooting powder. Worked for me. Hope you get it worked out. These clones are from about 120 day old plants so..................... :D

Oh, yeah, it took two weeks or so under a single CFL bulb keeping the plugs wet. :smokin:

Greenlight....that's the same stuff as what I got. I guess you just don't worry about the 'not for human consumption' warning, eh? I'm very sensitive to chemicals, so I was afraid to use it.

I didn't read the label and it was what was around here. I thought it was safe. Oh, well I guess I'll just have to take my chances. After reading the little booklet, I'm not eating it so.................. Next time, I'm getting some rootec rooting gel. :thumbsup:

cool shit keep the dream alive

That was then, this is now or about the time the upload went down! :D

This is the girls today. They have been under cfl and with other things going on, I neglected them for a couple of days. Hopefully they will be faithful medicine providers for me. :D

Here are the ladies tonight. Next week, they are going under a T5 SunBlaze 46 4' 6 light system. Right now, they have just been getting comfortable from being in the cups, and there were roots to the outside of the cups when I transplanted into the pots last week. I guess I'll have to move them over to the indoor segment once they get going under the T5 system. :D

Cool shadows in the pic!! :pimp:
