    Default Cloning question

    Hi i have a question about cloning!
    In all the videos or threads about cloning i have seen the grower usually keeps a mother plant in vegetative and grows clones until they are big enough to be put in the budding room.
    my question is can you cut clones off of the mother and leave the clones in the vegetative while you put the mother in the budding room? so by the time your harvest comes you will be ready to flower a new set of the same plant.

    Thanks and if your confused on my question let me knwo

    Yeah do it that way. Then you just keep one of your clones back as a mother plant.

    hey no problem. i just did that the night before last bc i couldnt wait on my little guys anymore. i plan on putting the clones in whenever they are ready bc i feed the larger plant and the clones the same food (lucas formula) and ill just pull the first one when its ready then the little guys will come out later when they are done. i use a flood table so its just as easy to feed one as it is to feed 5.
    good luck!!

    i never used powder but im sure it will work just fine. might not be a good idea in a cloner that mist water on the cuttings - could wash it off.

    thats funny you describe a dixie cup as a beer pong cup - man im out of the loop - hehe!
    i bet it will work no problem. when i clone i put the cuttings in rockwool/peat pellets or whatever then i place a dome over them all and cover the top of the dome with a couple layers of paper towel to keep some of the light out. i also close all the vents on the dome bc my clones dont like fresh air for a couple days at least - no idea why.
    i enjoy cloning as much as i do flowering.
    youll do fine!
