Clone without cloning agent.

I just took a clone from one of my plants, the plant seems to be 70 sativa 30 indica.

I've heard that sativas have more of the hormone to grow roots, then indicas, so that's why I chose that plant.

But I used no cloning agent just right into a peat moss pellet and tented it with a ziploc bag.

I've been keeping it moist all day so far and it's looking fairly okay..

I wanted to ask, What are the odds of a clone rooting without a rooting compound?

*edit* It is outside, no way of putting it under a light..

Heres are what my outdoor experiment looked like:




i had the bottom filled with water just enough to keep soil moist


and here you go....




I didnt cover it with the lid i used plastic wrap.....i came back after 4 days to check on them because it was raining and they were fine...but i started messing with it and ended up killing a clone.....i came back after 5 days..... and a white fuzzy fur was on the tips of 2 of the clones. The humidity must have gone too high..i knew i had mold so i killed the 2 in hope for the mold not to get the last clone.

I took off the plastic wrap and i left the last one out there with any chance it had....i came about 3 days later and i saw that it was mostly dead, but without mold... I pulled it out and sure enough i saw small threads of root beginning to form all around the bottom where i dipped in rooting powder

so i say that if you have a close eye on them ....you can root clones outdoors!! i did! But the survival rate was low....keep in mind that this was my first ever time cloning :mrgreen:

keep a close eye on them..... and dont let it get to humid or to dry... in 2-3 weeks about 60% of them will root..
