its funny how you guys all know each other and there soft spots. i already brought up a sore subject with her about subcool seeds. and now i did it again im sorry.

hahaha don't worry I always get the last laugh... the ex was no exception... you should SEE the text message that dumbass just sent me, in violation of his RO... ooooooh I'm so sorry... waaaaa..... have me arrested I don't care booo hooo.....
I used to run 24/0 and have taught my prodigy to do the same... she's got a log going now... coco...
Either way is fine but I am partial to 24/0 for cloning because it minimizes the chances of temperature fluctuations.

What a fucking MESS that was.
Basically, if I ever want to grow again, I'm going to have to sell my house and leave town... it sucks... and just because he can't handle his emotions... he claims he never wanted to do me wrong but didn't know what else to do because he was ANGRY... well, really? I didn't notice.

Anyway it all ended up for the best... if I hadn't met him (stoner) I would have never started growing and smoking even... If I hadn't started growing I would hvae never met all you awesome people here... If I had never come to canncom, I would have never met the Yeag... we were talking about this last night... he said if he ever meets Jeff, he's just gonna thank him. lol. I guess I should look at it like that too... from all that shit came a chance to meet the most amazing man I have ever not met yet

How I take and root clones and get 95-99% success rates...

Take a branch from lower part of the mother plant...ones with leaves low enough to become roots are best.

Take the cut branch to your cutting board and cut off the leaves from the lower area (while leaving the top with all foilage) at as steep of an angle as possible then place into the bottle of Clonex sitting nearby.
Let it sit in the cloning solution while the grow pellet is prepared (I stick a nail into the hole nearly to the bottom to clear out the hole so the stem will glide in without bending).
I then remove the nail and immediately take the branch sitting in the Clonex bottle and put a glob of solution into the hole, 2 times. Then I gently set the branch into the cube as deep as it'll go making sure the leaves that were cut off are well covered with Clonex and will be buried inside the pellet.
I then place into a recepticle (either the tray the clone kit comes with or I've found Dixie Cups work well to hold the pellet and cutting in place while it roots. The roots will grow thru the paper cup in about 2 weeks letting you know when the time has come for potting.

Once I'm finished with the above I mist-spray heavily and cover with the plastic dome and under the flouro's, as close as the lights can get to the top of the dome. I spray every 6-8 hours, every day until cuttings have rooted and become clones...then I put them in 16oz cups with soil and they get their first hit of ferts then...a very light dose (1/3 of normal strength) along with a splash of SuperThrive. They must be kept warm and moist during this time but the 3-4 mist-sprays/day allows the air to get exchanged and also time for inspections...other than that they stay under the dome all day/night.
