My Clone From Leaf Experiment

Tanuvan · Apr 4, 2008

Thanks for your patience with some of the other members Woo. Just for clarification in case I missed something, are the cuts suppose to be perpendicular to the vein? Also is it 1 cut per vein?

TetraHyC · Apr 4, 2008

Are you English?

What do you think about the net pot bottoms for weight ?

One cut across the middle of the the vein making sure it only penetrates half way through.

whatever does the job my friend without hindering the shoots from appearing.

Does my nationality make a difference? yes I'm English.

TetraHyC · Apr 4, 2008

Not at all, I'm pleased to talk with an Englishman.

You say all looks good.

Then we shall take care of them and see.

I'd post a pic but, there is nothing new to see.

So how long does it take for one of these to root, and then how long does it take for it to actually start growing. :peace:

The earliest results I have had was a shoot appearing in 10 days with the other four following daily, so as I said previously be patient! Once the shoots have developed they need to be transplanted quickly to avoid root tangle, unless you are happy to train the five shoots as one plant. Don't transplant any shoots till they have all appeared, unless too much time has elapsed between appearances ie. 2 days between shoot 3 and 4.

I bought a dvd camcorder today and shot my 5 THC bomb girls and was going to post picsbut didnt realise I need a card! So will purchase a card in the next few days and get some pics up as I have leaves which are rooted but not shooting yet.

yes looks good , the only difference is I personally weight the leaves down with chicken wire to keep the leaves pressed aginst the soil.
For the non-believers out there who cant possibly believe the earth is round,the new shoots appear directly above the cut sites of the veins. Someone made a silly comment about leaves not having genetic makeup to grow into plants -WRONG! This method is also nothing like tissue culture it is a simple AVP method(artificial vegetative process) and has been used in my area for years. There are several methods and this is just the most successful one that I have shared.

Thanks for coming back and chiming in Woo... ignore the naysayers, there are a few of us around who are willing to try something new.

My motto in life is 'try something once, if you don't like it, don't do it again".

BTW, I'm a Brit too!

You snap at me like that and I apologize...and you have nothing to say?

Budsworth · Apr 4, 2008

Nothing wrong with learning new technics I'm glad you came back Woo. I will be watching. :peace:

White Widow Woman · Apr 4, 2008

I actually tried this once, by accident/inexperience when trying my hand at cloning for the first time. With that said - It didn't work, hence the "I tried it once". After that failed attempt, I learned the proper way to clone.

In any event I will pull up a chair with you all and wait to see MILF's results and thanks for being a real trooper and giving this experiment a try!

:peace:

Woo i am glad you came back to help give advice in any areas we may have questions in. I am really interested in this because i am on my first grow, and have yet to clone anything, or fully grown anything as of yet.

oldskoolstyle · Apr 5, 2008

Yes excellent results... when I tried this it didn't work also, the leaf just sat there for 3 weeks with roots, not moving. Although, I didn't slice the veins.

I'm from England too.
