Good info, thanks otter! I'm taking Candida cuttings this weekend for more seed making attempts.

Those things can't hurt I figure. I've been going with the dipngrow and not cutting tips. I just learned of the keeping 3 leaves. I wonder what other parameters to use with the 3 leaves. I wouldn't think they should be big or lanky. I don't know, I love/hate rules.Good info, thanks otter! I'm taking Candida cuttings this weekend for more seed making attempts.
A national monument to NextLight!The Four Corners
I found these bud today.
Yep!A national monument to NextLight!
3 or 4 days in the paper towel. After 24 hours for one and 36 hours for the other soaking.How long has the Starkiller been sitting for?
Hey Maritimer, good to see ya brother.Ahoy Van
My Dog Brother,
Hope all is well. We have not chatted in a while.
In a gently enchanted way I got to wondering bout something.
Did you have anything to do with the StankBerry gems I was gifted by the Stone?
That would be to cool. I hope you tell me you are Stank.
Perhaps I am a bit more stoned than I thought.
Semper
Well you might be right. I didn't open the back of the tent yesterday so It may be on the same schedule. Watering today so I'll find out.Looking nice.
I would have thought from the description from the breeders that the CBD Cream & Cheese would have ripened first.
The countdown to pull the pins is on Shed! The whole house is on notice that if I see milky trichs it's time to blow this grow up! Just letting the snow develope now. The leaning towers are a sight. They're bulking up this week and losing a lot of pistols fast. I'm torn between them and the White Rhino's that are so expanding and getting a thick frost on them.Some beautiful grenades in there, but I have a soft spot for the (slightly) leaning towers of Stankberry. Let the countdown begin!
Hi beez, thanks, it's getting time in there.Your tent is looking awesome, Stone!
You came across a print version. I heard him summarise this on a podcast.Hi folks, today I've been looking at propagation. Taking cuttings and rooting them. A study by Deron M Caplan called
Propagation and Root Zone Management for Controlled Environment Cannabis Production Results
He did some other things I watched earlier in @Maritimer 's log and this stuck out since the outcome of his study is different from most of what I see here in folks journals including mine. The thing he brings up is how cutting leaf tips off clones slows down the root growing process. I copied the following from the paper. What do you think? Is cutting leaf tips bro science, or have you seen better results from doing it?
From the paper:
Cuttings under all treatment combinations had some degree of successful rooting. Rooting hormone had the greatest effect on both rooting success rate and root quality (Figure 2.2, 2.3). The synthetic hormone delivered a 2.1 times higher rooting success rate (84% vs. 40%; 2 = 39.0, P < 0.0001) and 1.6 times higher root quality (1.6 vs. 1.0; 2 = 41.1, P < 0.0001) than the organic hormone. Removing leaf tips had the second greatest effect on rooting success rate. When leaf tips were removed, rooting success rate was lowered from 71% to 53% ( 2 = 9.8, P = 0.0018), though there was no effect on root quality. Leaf number had no effect on rooting success rate, but rooted cuttings with three leaves had 15% higher root quality than those with two (1.5 vs. 1.3; 2 = 4.3, P = 0.038). Cutting position did not influence rooting success rate or root quality. There was however, an interactive effect between cutting position and leaf tip removal on rooting success rate (Figure 2.4). When leaf tips were removed, cuttings of basal origin had lower rooting success rate than apical cuttings (43% vs. 63%; 2 = 5.7, P = 0.0169).
It makes perfect sense when you put it that way. Live and learn. I'm bringing them on asap now with the new bud rot I found this morning. OYE!Just in time for the fun
Your garden is looking gorgeous, Stone.

While testing was rigourous and extensive his caveat was that it was only carried out on one chemovar. Mmv.
Clipping the leaves to “direct energy” into growing roots was the broscience. Plants don’t do that, it seems. Also, leaf clipping gives the cutting 5 wound sites to heal, where removing a leaf gives the cutting only one for the same money. It’s healthier to take the whole leaf than to cut one.
Alright. Bring on the meds!
