I don't like seeds. I do like the vitality of hybrid seeds but they are almost unmanageable for me. Some will triple in height in 10 days of flowering. I can't remember the one strain I had but it grew so tall I had to bend several colas and finished at 55" tall.

Clones are soooo much easier to use than seeds. But I agree, it can be frustrating when having problems cloning. But keep at it. Your won't be sorry.

I assume you know the procedure ( at least one node, cut at 45 deg. angle, scrape clone stem, dip in rooting hormone and place in medium.)

I don't use a humity dome but recommend them. I time my taking of clones so I'll be around during 1st 48 to 72hrs so I can mist them a few times a day.

So why clones? All female, less stretch and more uniformity.

I must say that while I didn't like the 55" height of the plant mentioned above it did yield 127 grams.
