Day light hours are still getting longer

Its inside and I cover it for 12 hours

Looking good Macdaddy, looks like that mother want more offspring

Thanks, yeah I think I’m going to top her for clones, she’s getting a bit big. I could stop pulling it down with LST though.

 

[Mr. Krip]

FYI, depending on the cutting, you can often get 2-3 (or more!) clones from a single cutting by dividing the cutting at the individual nodes. You just need have enough stem to plant and get roots.

How does that work?

 

[Mr. Krip]

How does that work?

Well, if, for example, the cutting had 7 nodes, you could have one cutting that's 3 nodes and one that 4 nodes long. Or, two that are two nodes and one that is three nodes long. Each node is capable of producing a clone but if you cut into seven sections, each section likely won't be long enough to root. You want the cuttings each about 3"-4" minimum and a lot will depend how widely the nodes are spaced.

 

[Macdaddy420]

Does each section need to have leaves or just the stem itself?

 

[Mr. Krip]

You should have at least one leaf at the top of each node (cutting) to make sure nutrients are reaching the top, but the new buds at the individual nodes don't need to be showing leaves yet. Once the clone roots, the new buds/leaves will develop. If the bud is already showing leaves, you won't need another leaf at the same node.

That makes sense, I could probably do that if I were to take my tops, rather than the lower branches.

I ordered the AN grow,micro, bloom. Should arrive in a few days, am I able to just switch over st my next feeding? Should I dilute it more? Also will I notice improvements quickly or is it slow to fix.

 

[irie lion]

You can switch over on your next feeding, start with a half recommended dose. All strains react differently to feedings but if they like it they should react within 2 days of feeding.

Thank you, I will keep that in mind. Should I do even less for clones?

 

[irie lion]

I do not feed my clones until their roots are well stablelized, I just water them the first 2-3 weeks.

Ok I will do the same. I’m hoping for high clone success

 

[Mr. Krip]

Start seedlings & clones on 1/4 strength nutes once they have 3 new nodes.

 

[Macdaddy420]

I’m excited about seeing how much better nutes designed for cannabis will help my girls grow.

 

[Macdaddy420]

Quick update: added some new pots today, waiting on my first 15 clones to root, hopefully I will have enough pots by then.

Wait there’s actually a plant behind that one in the front.

And the clones looking pretty

 

[Mr. Krip]

Lookin' good!

 

[irie lion]

Everythings looking good in there
