How Big?

[Yes I Cannabis]

How big/old does a plant have to be to take cuttings? I plan on growing some plants inside this winter. Taking cuttings, and planting them outdoors in the spring/summer. Growing from seed seems to take to long!
Thanks.

Well, the plant doesn't have to be very old, just old enough to have a couple, few, branches that can be cut off. Usually this takes between 4-6 weeks of growing a plant from seed. I don't recommend cutting the main growing tip unless you plan on cannabilizing the whole plant for clones.

also leave all the fan leaves you can it will help the plant

would plan on veg them for 6-8 weeks to determine sex while some strains may show their sex even earlier like 4 weeks, then you can take several cuttings from the females while you wont be able to take a bunch from each plant you shouldnt have any problem taking 6-8 cuttings from a 6-8 week old plant.

I have taken a (successful) cutting from plants that are as young as 14 days old from seed..

Basically it come down to WHAT ONE wants... It is ideal (neccesary) to have at least 2 nodes per cutting.

A healthy mother under T-5s will easily produce 50-100 clones per month for years..


Once a plant has secondary growth with alternating nodes, she is ready for a massive CLONING SESSION... It is often recommended NOT to reduce a plants mass by more than 33% at any one pruning/cloning/cutting session.

I personaly get most clones from secondary growth once it has developed 2 NODES.. these cuttings make perfect clones that would otherswise give little BUDS...

LOVE is becoming AWARE of Awareness.... To redirect ONE's attention from the mind to the ENERGY BODY... Can YOU realise that YOU are NOT your thoughts...
