Does anyone have photos of a plant while being cloned? I have a sweet hydro going that looks beautiful and would like to keep her around, this being my first need to clone a plant I want to make sure I don't butcher the thing. How much of the host is needed to clone successfully? Can you simple snip a leave and place in Rockwool, or is a branch best? Thanks for you inputs, may the bud be with you.


Check the attachment you will see what I mean.

zandor's cloning 101 will show you how to take clones, and cite precautions you should take...If you look in hydroponics, I have 3 threads on cloning...check out cloning directly to hydroton/bubbler.
goodluck.

IF YA CLONE WHILE MOMMA IS FLOWERING, IT MUTATES FOR A BIT. I FIND IT TAKES TWICE AS LONG TO ROOT THAN IF MOMMA IS VEGGING. GOOD LUCK

cloning in flower does work though...the 1st time I did it in my homemade bubbler, cuttings took 10 days to root.

also remember that cuttings root much easier with low to no levels of nitrogen. flush/leach soil 5 days before cutting with pure ph'd water. For hydro: Change out rez solution 5 days before cutting with pure ph'd water. hope this helps. goodluck lw

I have successfully cloned after 21 day's of flower. The success rate was not as high as when I clone in the veg cycle but it still took.

Aero Cloning is the way to go though....imo
