Yep, they sure were. When taking clones in flower I find that it promotes more side branching and makes em fat little bushes. Takes a little longer to re veg but I like the outcome. By the time the ones in the flower room are finished those clones will be ready to go in. I've ran across lots of people that take clones in the early in flower for the same reasons.

Try it sometime and let me know if you see a difference.

That's really interesting theory and can understand why that could or would be advantageous for smaller plant counts or limited size spaces where applicable. Have your clones in the past also turned this color? I'm not sure if I have missed it(sorry if I did) but what is your feeding schedule like when you take your cuttings? I know that clones will have about 2 weeks of storage of nutes saved in them while they are clones. What are you feeding during your clone process if anything? Like you said the clone take longer to "re veg" but does this technique from cutting them from flower make them also longer to set their roots compared to cloning from a vegging plant? You'll know better than I, but I'm postulating that perhaps you could tweak your feeding a period of time right before you take your cuttings to account for this lapse in time for the clones to recover to hopefully promote it's over all health. Keep up the great work. That buku is something else. It has to be one of my fave looking plant's I've ever seen on here.

There is a term for it, called Monster-Cropping, if you wanna look it up.

Yes it takes a little longer to root, but the side branching from the reveg is insane ;)

What up drags? It may take em a little longer to root but from my experience, not much longer. Yes the color of your plants will change through the rooting process because your clones are using the stored food supply during this transition. I don't give the clones anything until they have shown roots for a few days then I give em a very light feeding. 1ml grow, 1ml pro-tekt and a 0.5 ml KLN per gallon for the first week then work your way up from there.

I forgot to mention that it also creates tight internode spacing as well. :wink:

just loving this snow
it hit you yet? Been on tom's hardware looking at computer parts. Going to build a new box soon. My shit is 4 years old now.
Have you read the

? not sure if his technique applies to rapid roots or not.

If you would nest time you clone, could you do a side by side comparrision on the ones where you cut the fans in half and leave the others alone? Would like to see the difference.

We were supposed to get 4 to 8 inches but we didn't get any at all. I just browsed through that thread and the info is spot on. You can use the same technique with rapid rooters but I would suggest a humidity dome. As far as I can tell the clones rooted just as fast if I wouldn't have cut the leaves but the next time I take clones I'll be sure to do a side by side comparison. I did like the fact that the clones in the humidity dome weren't so crowed with the extra foliage though.

wow man I didnt think you could grow big buds like this from seeds!! I am trying it out right now for the first time but they are still at the veggin point, I put them at 12/12 from seedlings,... 4-5 days after they sprouted. Nice job Doc Amber! What is your best yield per plant so far? Those look massive!!

err well i dont remember to be honest.this is my second 12/12 from seed grow . i wont know for sure till harvest. .. if you really want to see the 12/12 from seed master go to del66666 best 12/12 from seed journal found in indoor growing threads.. he pulls unbelieveable yeilds.. 700+ grams just recently. hes been teaching me his style. see you over there.
