So here's the list of supplies I need, two 20 gallon smartpots, 3 bags of ocean forest soil, ph tester, fox farm big bloom, fox farm happy frog fruit and flower, calmag, bamboo sticks, a good pair of trimming scissors, a drying rack, and Ive really been needing some clone gel. But I dont have the spare cash to get everything and I dont want to make multiple trips to the hydro store.

So I said screw it and took a few lower cuttings, threw them in plain tap water, and put them under a florescent light running on a 24/7 cycle. My goal is to get 3 clones.

I took one from each plant, and they are all the lowest weakest branches. Each cutting was done differently, one was cut short with just a few top leaves left, another was cut long with just top leaves, and the third was cut at a medium length with most of the leaves left on.

I have some pics from 5 hours ago and pics from right now. and so far the middle cutting has reacted the most and is already bending towards the light.

This is my first attempt ever with clones and its some what an experiment to see which cut gets the best results without using a cloning gel. If the cuttings root, I will put them in small pots and keep them under the florescent light until they reach about 1-2 foot tall. Then I will throw them outdoors with their parents so they start to flower. If anything I hope to get at least another 0.5-1 ounce per clone. I wish I wouldve done this much earlier in the season but I never got around to it. And if the cuttings dont make it, oh well, I needed to trim the lower branches anyways because they weren't doing my bigger plants any good.

For any of you that have experience with using the water cloning method (cannabis only), any criticism is welcome.
MrGrowBig Reviewed by MrGrowBig on . From seedlings to harvest.. Spouted on april 1st. Used miracle grow potting soil. Barely any nutes, just FF grow big every once n awhile, but I really didnt like the burn and deficiencies it would cause. Mostly just water and sun. Two are an unknown purple sativa, and the mini christmas tree is a grand daddy purple indica that is 2 weeks or so younger. In the next few weeks I'll be transplanting the unknowns into 20g smart pots with FF ocean forest soil, and for flowering nutes, ill be using some fox farm organic stuff. Rating: 5
