Re: My clone story (pictorial) taken early, done cheap and successful
wow. those tiny toppings grew up amazing buckshot. And the mom is one of the most beautiful plants I have seen on here. I can see how bigger and/or older cuttings have a greater chance of cloning success, and I haven't...
Re: My clone story (pictorial) taken early, done cheap and successful
Fantastic advice and ideas everyone. I will trim off the leaf tips right away. The cups and water idea sounds very interesting, you can watch the roots grow! And willow tree stems, I had no idea, but it makes sense. Those...
Thank you for the good info jimm14, I will keep my seeds in the fridge from now on.
What exactly is a "locking side tub" and a "paper wage packet" though ?
And is the kitchen towel cloth or paper ?
I have given up on my ten year old plus seeds. two months worth of various germination methods and nothing. I read somewhere else in the forums about a "bean soak" recipe, but I didn't try it. I think it used molasses? Hope you have better luck!
Topping helps me keep the height down as my grow box has limited space. Topping also spreads the branches out so they all get more equal lighting. My last harvested plant had 16 main shoots and several secondary shoots at the start of flowering, and being at the same height, they all developed...
Well, Allie didn't make it, I guess she was just a weak seedling.
Becky is doing fine, after we fought off a fungus gnat attack.
Daisy, the strange looking bush plant is healthy and happy. I didn't have to top it at all, it just branched out everywhere on its own. Very sativa looking leaves...
Re: My clone story (pictorial) taken early, done cheap and successful

Okay, fellow Canadians. I got some Scotts Premium Potting Soil and some Perlite from Home Depot. Looks like good soil, but glad I got some perlite for it as it doesn't have seem to have any. Mixed them 2 to 1. Started some clones rooting in it, will let you know how it goes!
Re: My clone story (pictorial) taken early, done cheap and successful
I think it is working! it has been a little over two weeks now, and it is definitely taller, and new growth looks like it it starting in the center. I removed the humidity dome today. I will post a picture here when it...
