Ok I am going to need to do some cloning soon and wondered exactly how I treat the mother.
1 Do I reveg it after I find out it is a female? 2 Do I keep the mother around indefinately and just keep taking clones from that one? Or do I select a new mother from the new cloned females? 3 My friend told me that I am supposed to take the clone clippings with finger nail clippers is he right? or should I use garden sheers? I am pretty sure I know how to grow the clones. I take a clipping, dip the cut end in rootex or a similar growth agent, and then I can plant it directly in the soil I want to grow it in or I can put it in a cup with a little water and keep light away from the cut end until roots appear. After it starts growing I veg it until it is big enough for me to need to flower it. Let me know if I am wrong on any of that please. I still have a couple weeks before I start the flowering cycle, but I always like to be prepared well in advance. Thanks for any help here. |

You should take the clones from a mother that is in veg. If you don;t know if a plant is female or not take a clone then flower the plant and if you like what you get keep the clone as the mother. You can take a lot of clones off of one mother but eventually you will need to replace it so you just take some extra clones and let them grow into mothers and you can do this forever.
You can use anything that cuts to take the clones. You should try for a 45 degree angle on the bottom of the clone and if you can put little slits around the bottom of it. This will give it more places for roots to grow out of. Quote:
