Help please, I need medicine!

I use medical cannabis to treat chronic pain associated with minicore myopathy, which is an extremely rare neuromuscular disorder. My buddy has a bubblegum kush plant in veg in his bakyard (it is reportedly 4 weeks old, but you gotta take what this guy says with a grain of salt). He said he'd give me a few clones. I bought a dresser yesterday (40.3 high by 27.6 wide by 14.6 deep). I plan on building a veg chamber and a flowering chamber (should i split it down the middle, or should i give the flowering chamber more room?). I have no idea how to clone cannabis. Will i have enough time to cut it and transport it to my house (he lives one street over)? Or should i immediately place it in soil at his place? A list of materials would be great, i've already purchased 2 veg CFLs and activated carbon from Walmart for a scrubber. Also some instructions on how to clone would be greatly appreciated. I hope i have better luck here (no replies after 2 weeks on grasscity :finger:). Thanks yall, and happy tokinbongsmilie
 
lol man i knew i should of copied the instructions for cloning i posted earlier. always have to explain it again. when he gives you cuttings put them in water till you use them. you can keep them in water for a few days IF NEEDED but the faster the better. best thing you could do is find a place to get some rockwool cubes. maybe look for a hydro store near you would be best. cut the stems at a 45 degree angle, dip in some sort of cloning gel, solution, powder, etc. gel is best. then stick in the rockwool cube. put the cubes on a tray or something flat that will hold a little bit of water and keep a tiny bit of water in the bottom for the cubes to soak up. and FUCK GRASSCITY! lol this is the BEST forum to be on i promise you that. you will for sure need more room to flower. at least 3 or 4 feet tall
 
Cool beans man, i appreciate the response.
Can you clone in soil, or do you have to use water with rockwool cubes? I plan on scrogging the flowering chamber.
 
i hear rapid rooters work good too but i would really use rockwool cubes. its the only way i can get a 100% success rate. cloning directly in soil has a very very low success rate...tried it many times.

OH! dont forget to mist the cuttings after you put them into something. with no roots its the only way they get water is through the leafs.
 
It is an unpopular choice, but if you find rockwool or rapid rooters are not your thing, try oasis cubes. They are really easy to use.

aerocloners are the easiest way to propagate cuttings. they cost about 60usd but theres a thread on how to make your own for about 20 bucks if your interested. use no root hormone as the plant makes it's own and the gels clog the manifold anyway. cut an inch or so below a node and cut on a 45 degree angle to increase surface area for water to absorb. you'll see roots from between 4 days to 2 weeks. don't bother sticking the cuttings into soil. no one is that patient. it takes too long. my success rate using soil was about 20%. aerocloners survived at a 95% or better rate.
 
imo, aerocloner, rockwell, rapid rooter, even jiffy pucks... they all can achieve that 95-100% success rate. It's all about what works for you.
i notice the fastest healthiest clones when ambient air is lower and medium temp is higher.
In the winter when the room is cold but that tray of cubes is sitting on a heat mat, super fast healthy clones come out.

idk man...havent had good luck with those and seen a bunch of other people complaining about them on here. never really see anyone saying much bad about rockwool though!
