Clones from Flowering Plant

[gypski]

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I just had success cloning two cuttings from one plant that was two weeks onto flowering. One cutting was a branch that broke enough that I said fuck it, I'll try and clone it. The other was a smaller sucker that was growing from low on the stem and was starting one bud. Both rooting and tomorrow getting potted.

I used rockwool plugs on both with them in a small pan. I used rooting powder and a solution of 1/2 gal of water with a half tblsp of Big Bloom, and also used the same to mist them. Roots can be seen on the one on the left. I just gave them a shot of the mix with a 1/4 tsp Grow Big. They need a little more after two weeks rooting.

i just saved my G13 strain because i let the mother veg outside and she decided to flower and i hadnt taken any off at the time :cursing: . got lucky because the first time i tried they didnt root. kinda scared me cause it was the first time i had clones that wouldnt take- and it couldnt happen at a worse time. but i got a good mother plant now from a snip i took off it 3 weeks into flowering. it takes a little longer for them to do their thing but atleast you didnt lose the strain.:thumbsup:

I bought some rooting hormone to use when taking cuttings for clones. Then when I got home, read the label and it says "do not use on plants that are to be used for food or feed." So I was afraid to use it...

The active ingredient in this stuff is Indole-3-butyric acid. Anyone have experience using this product?

Thanks! :hippy:

I've used rootec in the past. don't have any right now, but its worked well for me. The stuff I used this time is called Greenlight Rooting powder. Worked for me. Hope you get it worked out. These clones are from about 120 day old plants so.....................

Oh, yeah, it took two weeks or so under a single CFL bulb keeping the plugs wet. :smokin:

Greenlight....that's the same stuff as what I got. I guess you just don't worry about the 'not for human consumption' warning, eh? I'm very sensitive to chemicals, so I was afraid to use it.

I didn't read the label and it was what was around here. I thought it was safe. Oh, well I guess I'll just have to take my chances. After reading the little booklet, I'm not eating it so.................. Next time, I'm getting some rootec rooting gel. :thumbsup:

That was then, this is now or about the time the upload went down!

This is the girls today. They have been under cfl and with other things going on, I neglected them for a couple of days. Hopefully they will be faithful medicine providers for me.

Here are the ladies tonight. Next week, they are going under a T5 SunBlaze 46 4' 6 light system. Right now, they have just been getting comfortable from being in the cups, and there were roots to the outside of the cups when I transplanted into the pots last week. I guess I'll have to move them over to the indoor segment once they get going under the T5 system.

Cool shadows in the pic!! imp:
