Weedhound Reviewed by Weedhound on 03-09-2008. My Latest Issue I'm 14 days into flower. There is no way I can go 45 to 60 days with only a foot or so space left to keep my light over my 2 girls. So that being the case I was considering making clones and starting over with them, but this time I would keep them topped which is what I should have done the first time (this is my first real grow). I read that I shouldn't take clones from flowering plants, can anyone confirm this. Additionally, how do I do clones? I mean, what kind of stem am I looking for to Rating: 5

But the triangle hook keeps it centered as there are 2 holes up topspace about 2-3 inches across.

Hey you can get a few screw in ceiling screws they are made with a tapered screw for drywall and such at HD, works like a charm. And to LST just take some kite string and loosely loop tie and you can duct tape or take a stick pin to the top of the plastic pot, and pull down + bend away. You can also increase the tension gradually this way if you can't bend all the way down. And you know the first couple weeks are when most strains stretch, they WILL stop stretching soon.

You're done with growth basically dude. At about the 21st day maybe that is about it for your plant. All the rest of the time will be bud development, so you have PLENTY of headroom in the system.

But on a more serious note, you way over grew your 400 watt. It can only penetrate like 2 feet or so and thats from the bulb. So everything you have below that is not going to grow.

For 400 watt you should veg to about 6 - 8 inches of height. Then it will flower to about two feet and you wil get some good results.

Herbie's right on all accounts.

As for what type of shoot to clone, this is awfully later to be cloning but in general, you pick a vigorous shoot with several nodes, that has not grown 'bark' yet (=softwood cutting). In flower, you would only want to take LOW branches for clones to avoid screwing with the hormone distribution in the flowering plant and possibly stressing it, plus most yield comes off the higher colas.
