Help! I want to begin cloning!

hello everyone, soon I will be receiving skywalker seeds & when it's time I am hoping to take a few cuttings and try to clone the plant. I am wondering what is the best process to clone & how is it done? What is the best products to use for cloning? Any information/advice/tips on cloning would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks all!

Google and YouTube will help you out. Also read threads on here. Good luck!

Google didnt help me, neither did this site, so that's why I posted a thread

45° angle cut with a clean razor blade, new is not clean it is oily.
Cut new growth making sure to leave 3 nodes on the plant you cut from, old woody hollow growth is harder to get to root. They will root in just water if you make a clean cut without smashing the membrane.

Purchase books on the subject and learn how to use the google machine is the best advice I can give you. Cloning isn't really an advanced technique, this thread belongs in the "indoor" section.

You're welcome

This.
Also on a side note there's loads of tutorials here on Riu.

There's 100s of videos on youtube.

A few helpful hints. Along with leaving a few nodes at the top. When you take a cutting I've found better rooting success with having a node or 2 at the bottom as well. Cut off all the leaves etc. Leave the stem submerged in your cloner. Or if you want to go old school have it buried in your medium.
I actually have a plant I want to keep around. It won't root for squat in a bubbler or just leaving it in water. I said screw it and gave the old cloning in dirt method a try. Took 8 cuts from the only one to root from bubbler. Built a few Diy pots out of clear solo cups (to see if there's root growth) Tossed some promix in them. Used more clear cups as humidity domes. In 5-7 days they all could survive without the tops on them. RH in that room is a good 65-70. Temps around 65. In 2-3 weeks I'll be damned in every single one didn't root. Not a single one wilted. They didn't turn yellow. Nothing. They were totally content in soil and cheap rooting powder I got from a lawn and garden center for 5$. Some plants are just fickle about rooting. This is one of those cases. I didn't even shave the stems or anything. Just left 2 nodes of growth under the soil. Hell I plucked it off with my fingers.
But save yourself a load of frustration. Build a bubble cloner. Or just buy one off the net.
