I kept checking my cutting once every 3 days or so, and today I've noticed big roots on 2 out of 3 clones. Been 10 days since.

Probably the third one is ready too, but because of the moisture level I can barely see little roots. Doesn't matter, I have other 6 clones in there waiting so I'm checking anyway.

NEXT PART OF THE TUTORIAL

When your cutting rooted you want to transplant them. you can check the transplanting tutorial in my signature.

VERY IMPORTANT.
In a plants early days it needs a lot of moisture. 80-90% is great. Less than 60% is bad.
Keep one of the plastic cups on the plant after transplanting to keep the humidity inside.
You should remove the dome after 2 new nodes have been grown. Usually takes a week and a half in my setup.

Do not worry about the old leaves deforming or dying, they are weak from all that stress and hard labor you put them through. You'l have new leaves in no time

so you spray water on the leaves or does the jiffy hold all the water that you need

yes their mine ,i admit it, i grow pot and i dont care http://www.rollitup.org/dwc-bubblepo...first-dwc.html

you do nothing but waiting.
the cuts on the top cup lets enought air movment for that stage and humidity rises as the jiffy is packed with water that evaporates.
to get optimal results you wanna use small containers and big jiffy.

sweet doing this
i have a plant and its in coco its close to harvest
i know the strike rate of cloning in this stage is low but im wondering if you got any tips
on how to do this

that would be a waste of bud.
even if do get the clone to root its growth will be stunned for at least 3 weeks. Even then it would probably be weaker than a clone took during veg.

thanks

Any reason for not doing bigger cuttings? After seeing the close up next to your fingers, the cutings look to be about 2 inches tall. Any reason you didnt do 4-6 inch cuttings? Also I read that you should group up the leafs and cut them in half this way the leafs wont absorb everything and the rooting system will grow faster? What do ya think? Thanks!

I need small plants and I use small containers, so I take small cuttings. You can scale the whole thing up if you want.
However, I got 3/3 plants to root in 10-12 days, so it does work.
I also take small cutting because I had small mother plants. Plus, from a 6 inch branch I can take 3 cuttings, and it still works

Cutting the large leaves in half is to make less water evaporate from them. But I don't have any large leaves since my cuttings are so small. And if there is a large leaf even if I cut it in half it won't fit in, so I remove them.
Actually the leaves should absorb stuff - while cloning you count on foliar feeding to give the cuttings energy to root. So probably more leaves = faster rooting.
Cutting the leaves in half does help to identify which leaves are new and which are old.

By the way, my cuttings are usually 1-1.5 inch tall :P

for the sceptics - another round of 6 clones all rooted well.

however one died of mold because I haven't moved it for a week after it rooted and 2 died because of lack of water. Had to go for a weekend.

BUT they did root and with attendance they would have survived.
