Did I do something wrong and ruin mom? *pics*

[headshake]

In South Carolina there is a Tea plantation I am going to. The Tea bushes were brought here almost 200 years ago from China. The Tea is all the same mother plant from then and continues to be cloned to replace old ones. I am going to get cuttings from there to start my own Tea and because genetics are heirloom.

Can you imagine a 200 year old MJ plant ?

like you are gonna start a tea company? is it gonna start out local or what? i love tea. i'd like to try some when you do your thing!

Here's an interesting note for you all;
I'm not sure anyone here is aware that the plant, salvia divinorum, has been "asexually propagated thru cuttings" that we refer to as clonning, has been cultivated this way for so long (1000+ years) that the plant has lost it's ability to set viable seeds or pollen. It can only be propaged via cuttings.

that's a very interesting fact mac. very cool indeed! and just goes to show mans influence in nature. not always good.

Did I do something wrong and ruin mom? *pics* I took clones 21 days ago and my mother looks like this now, no regrowth from the old shoots, has just sat stagnantly. Did I do something wrong in cloning and ruin my mom? I'm worried! All help is very much appreciated, thank you. Rating: 5
