I got a few other plants going, so im not too bummed about these clones, since it was after all my first time cloning. I can take a couple more and try again sometime im sure.

When taking clones, is it best to take clones that have alternating branches/nodes/whatever you call them?
I believe from memory that its best if they have at least 3 nodes. You can use any branch, sprout, growing area and clone it. The smaller the better, not too big, and not too little, and as you can see, I'm trying mine with multiple growth areas and they are just small starting branches off the lower stem. And I intend to take more from this same area, and maybe using a dome on some and none on others. A control so to speak. :thumbsup:
gypski Reviewed by gypski on . Took some clones tonight. Took 6 clones off my plant. My main intention was to clone for sex, but I figured I would just do that with one, and potentially keep the other 5 if it turns out fem. If its a male, I can concentrate on my other 3 seedlings that just sprouted. Ill try to get some pics up tomorrow, my digi cam is out of batteries right now. If youve seen my grow log..thats the plant I cloned. Tips, advice, etc. is totally encouraged, and well appreciated! I need all the input I can get. Thanks everyone! Rating: 5
