image.jpeg Hey all earlier I did some topping and fimming..

New to all this but I thought for the heck of it why not try getting the off cuts to root so I had a look what was lying around in the house

So I de leafed the lower parts of what I cut off and cut stem on angle and scraped to expose flesh of stem...

I cut up some sponges placed the off cuts in them and into a bowl of tap water room temperature with and air bubbler

There in the room with the tent so not much light and window nets are doubled up..

Anyone think these will root or just die off lol like I said just an experiment I ain't got a clue with this stuff so just playing about to see what will happen :dunce:

It's possible. I have successfully cloned small ass tops before...nothing that small, but hey, never know till you know...ya know :bigjoint:
Cool in fact the top left 2 and top right 2 were quite big but I trimmed the fan leaves off so the look small there is plenty of stem on those 4 .. There the only ones I think will do anything if something will happen.. Just check this morning and they have firmed back up quite nicely so the must be drinking the water as of now

Ok only the 4 large ones still there still feeling strong and looking healthy tho...Decided to step it up a bit anyway... Done a bit of lollipoping and had a load off spare cuts

Seen a few people rooting in there coco and a few using honey as hormone
Boiling water (2 cups) and 1Tbs Honey let it cool and it's a home made rooting hormone according the the www this is good stuff...
anyway I made a little humidity dome with a 3w energy saving bulb inside but close to plants

Anyone think I should get a stronger bulb or any thoughts on how it looks?

I am feeding and misting with ph'd tap water
