So when you say leave the lower buds and cut the stalks off above that growth... do you mean you keep the bottom few branches of the plant and cut the whole top off the rest? Shortening your plant significantly. Or do you leave the higher branches with leaves but take out the buds on those?

I just wanna be very clear on how I am supposed to cut this thing so I don't do anything bad.
Minnesnowta Reviewed by Minnesnowta on . Clone issues - New leaves but no branches stretching out I took a clone off of my plant a couple weeks into flowering and have been trying to grow it now for over a month I would say. It shed its old fan leaves and sprouted lots of new smaller leaves right off of the main stem, but has not stretched out any new fan leaves or new branches. I pulled on the stem a little and it feels like it never grew any roots, so it surprises me that it can even still be alive and growing. I did have it under 24 hours of light for most of the clones life so far, I Rating: 5
