Cloning w/o hormones?
I'm afraid I do it "granny style"- I just stick the cuttings from the mom into a cup that I found a plastic lid for (burnt a few holes in the lid). No hormones- just H2O and sunshine or CFL light 24/7. Not 100% success, but I don't need 100%- I am in California and am limited on how much I can "legally" grow.
More often than not, I am using cloning for sexing seedlings. Here, I put the cuttings under 12/12, to force them to sex and allow me to find the males early. These don't root very fast, but most do root eventually. As soon as a female shows, she's removed from 12/12 and put back under 24/7 to reveg. I figure it's a free female plant to replace one of those dang males. They grow kinda funny for a while, but are growing normally before they are ready to go 12/12 again. - Granny:hippy:
