Do you have some pics you could post of a fresh cutting when it's cut, how big it is when you put it into flower, then towards the end of flowering. I'm not clear on how big of clones i should be taking to give me a decent yield in flower. The clones i take now are kinda small. A lot of people say to put them in 12/12 as soon as they are rooted...but if i put these lil' girls into flower as soon as they root, i don't think it would work out that well...

Hey skeet, i've not seen bozo around for a while so thought i'd try to help out.

I find pretty small cuttings root ok, most of the cuttings I take are between 2-3" i guess so don't worry about waiting for shoots to get big before cutting, the smallest cuttings can turn into monsters with a little veg

The size of the clone when you put it into flower will determine it's yield, as you say some growers will put them into flower as soon as they root (they'll probably be packing them in pretty tight say 4 to a sq ft) while others will give a couple weeks veg and will only be able to get 1 plant per sq foot. It all depends on how you want to grow.

Hope that helps. :rastasmoke:

Thanks
You don't need much light to clone so you should be ok with what you've got, however i must add i've no experience with that particular type of light.

I'm sure bozo will be happy he's helped all us lot with our cloning, cheers bozo, hope all is well with you and we see you around here soon :thumbsup:
