Cloning issues

Well Jerrodg,

Did I miss something? I didn't see a reference to "WILT PRUF" the plant protector sold at Home Depot or over the web. Yes there are multi cloning techniques which will have different rates of success. Somethings you just have to try to find out. WILT PRUF should increase your clones percentages but you'll have to try it to find out.

Loco

lol i typed it wrong. sorry everyone. hahaha. i meant that i don't know the sex of my plant. sorry for misleading. so there for i clone to determine the sex. haha sorry. i wish i could say i was high at that time to get away with it, but no excuse there. lol

I cloned WW under 12/12 with 100% success rate. I use plastic wrap to cover up water filled container, then I punch small holes so that stems can go thru and be 2cm in the water, in 15 days the most you have roots.

and why did you clone under 12/12 lighting regiment?

He said 22/2 which is wierd too. 24 is needed for clones. Also a heating pad or higher temps would help. As well as misting and making sure the medium stays wet. Drying out will kill a unrooted clone quick!
Soaking the cutting in super thrive right before the hormone seems to help too. I've heard WW can be fussy when cloning. But definately possible.

or 18/6 this cycly works for me
cheers all :)

I've always been told that clones do better with 24/7 light.
But a few ppl have told me that the 6 hours of darkness speeds things along. So it's up to you.

you keep a female mother plant to take cuttings off without having to start from seed everytime ya harvest a crop

the image reaper why are you sexing clones ? ... I thought that was the point, you take clones from female plants, then all the clones will automatically be females ... did I miss something ? ... I'm a little stoned right now
the only reason i can think of is if you sex a clone you will definatly know the sex of the plant it came off without flowering it
(handy if you are wanting to keep the big plant as a mother plant )
cheers all :)

Im with you, i mean, why would you take cuttings, and risk all of them being males... Pre flower a mother, and then you know your growing female clones.... thats the point... thats why its not called father plant.

You should be able to know sex of plants by week 3-4 easy you do not have to change anything.... How is it so Hard lol females have Hairs and the males will grow little balls wich extend out and if you don;t pull him he will dry thoses pods and they crack open and rain down pollen onto females (males grow taller to) Anyone after 1st season would know what to look for and not have to 12/12 pre bud to tell. a clone is not going to grow in 12/12 this causes as we all know budding and when a plant buds root production is stoped or slowed thus makeing it harder for the clone clipping to grow roots. :smokin: + why would you wana be makeing clones off anything thats less than 4 weeks ? Clone need 18/6 up to 24/0 to grow :smokin: hope that helps
