Clone to Flowering (LollyPopp'n)

yes 10 mm is rather big, but that is the key to producing larger yields from the clones with zero veg time
The vast majority of my cuttings are larger than 5.5, most more than 10mm. The larger, thicker stemmed cuttings become bigger plants faster in SoG.

However, the difference in rooting speed and vigor was most pronounced with the poorer performance of the thinner stems, notably those under 4mm.

So now the cuttings I had placed into flowering straight from the clone dome are about 4 weeks old. They are doing pretty nice. But I still feel that vegging for 7-10 days first is the way to go. But I have not harvested thes3e cuttings yet, so who know, I might like thius way the best at the end.

Oopps, blew off the photos... Check the next post.

yes vegging is the way to go.

you could make a spreadsheet tracking stuff like: mom, clone date, vegg date/days in veg, height at time of flower, size of containers, (try more then one size), height at 14 days, height at finish, dry grams and anything else you think of, you could then use the data to make stats and optimize your conditions. in time you will find your max yield per sq ft.

Ps. 1 gal bags are bigger then you really need. I use 2 and 3 liter soda bottles cut and taped for light blocking and get the same yield per plant as I did with 1 gal bags.

but if it's a clone from a flowering plant, can you really veg it? it would take a good 2 or 3 weeks just to revert back into the veg state. wouldn't that stress the plant more then necessary?

No Lorenzo, the clones are not from a flowering plant. When I am useing seeds, I flower them and at week two when I clip all the lower branches I use these for cuttings. and I lable them. Then when the Flowering plants show sex, I know which cuttings to throw out. Out of the cuttings I have left that I know are female. I then choose the plant that I like the traists of and i use one of those cuttings to be my mother. I still at this point in time think that it is best to veg for 7-10 days before flowering, at least with my two different technics. But my veg to flower crop has a head start. My opinion might change before the end of this trial.

ooh, I'm sorry. I confused this with another thread.

so do you include rooting time in the cloner, or do you veg for 7-10 days after roots have grown?

You have inspired me ldb! I have clones going and i climbed into this forum to see how to lollipop them and there you were, reps+. So i cut all the branches and leave jsut the fan leaves? I hope i right. An answer to this question will set me straight, i basicalyy think i got it. I put some clones straight to flower and they are taking off! I do have a question, i read this and was stumped

and LDB, for your original question....yea long time no speak! Im fine....hope all is well with you! I had to slow my activity on RIU down. I dont like the way things are being handled (prime example new members who act like they are ganja gods...it can clearly been seen in your thread here), the favoritism, and the newly enforced rules...especially about RIU so willingly turning info over to LEO. I post at other websites now....but im hear every so often.

Any idea what that means? never heard, that part about leo? Anyway cool man,

Have you actually completed a half decent grow or harvest Lord DB?
Rumour has it that you cant manage to get to grasps with growing yet
I found this link for you to look over it may explain all techniques a bit better for you pal.

And i bet you also believe that FEMA is going to kill off 90% of our population also. Here is exactly why most of the good growers have left, because of Newbie growers talking smack and other new members listening to their stupidity.

Since there seems to be a little confusion here. I will explain this more detailed. I have TWO crops going right now in seperate rooms. One Crop, after the cuttings took root, I vegged them for about 10 days, I toped them at about day 5, and then I clipped off all the lower fan leafs and branches from the bottom to about 1/3 up the plant. These are pictures of these plants. They are in week 6 of 10. They are about 18 Inches tall. They are pretty much just solid buds. These seems to be the metod i like the most. The other crop, I will show pictures of them and explain in my next post to try and not get them mixed up. here are the photos of the 10 day vegged plants.

ouch. hope I was never one of them. I'm admittedly a noob, but I've done my homework and don't talk smack.

Now these next pictures of of cuttings that came from the same exact mother, but they had ZERO veg time. with little if any clipping. Notice how the plant has no side branches and the main stem is starting to become one solid Cola. These plants are at week 4 of 10.

I tried both of these methods so I could find out which one works best for my needs. And The 7-10 days of veg is the way I will be going from now on.

Lorenzo, you are all good. It is the few, not the many. This all started from some new Member named Norml420 or something like that, talking smack. And then some other new members not knowing how to do a simple search on someone to find out what they are all about. In other words Some people are just like Cattle, they believe the first thing anyone tells them.

I have had (10) 7 foot plants inside my house, with mass foliage that had to be trimmed come harvest. I wanted smaller plants that had more buds per hour spent trimming. This is why I decided to give these two technics a try. I find the first technic with the 7-10 days of veg to produce a very nice amount of buds for very little foliage.

Maybe my idea of nice buds is not as high as some of you, but I think those buds that are 6 weeks old are looking pretty dam nice. They have not even hit the stage where they exploded. If this is a shitty crop, then All I need is SHITTY crops.

Right back at you mcslimdick. :finger: People like you crack me up. :o
