Glad you have a clone then. Been thinking doing a bit of cloning soon. That should be something. I have never cloned before. Too bad Light-1-up is not closer. He has a perfect record cloning.
Your right about the roof....you really do get what you pay for. In spades.
You may as well join BlueDog and go hempy! You've got the water figured out!
I don't have it yet but it will be available when I have finished my scrubdown. Right now I only have 2 plants in the entire house and they should finish soon. I don't want to take the chance on carrying any PM spores on clones, so everything else has been removed. No organic matter from before the scrub can remain, painful as it was to let them all go. I had 16 clones and 2 mothers but only kept the 2 Auto Hindu Kushes that were close to finished.
I'm sure you'll find cloning pretty straightforward. Just go easy with lighting for a week or so after they're cut and you'll probably manage 100% also, no matter which method you use.
My buddy from out of town now uses air layering to keep his plant count down. He slices the outer layer to expose the cambium layer of a branch, treats the sliced area with cloning gel or powder, then wraps a coco starter pellet around the area with a plastic baggie to keep from drying. The branch tip is still fed as usual by the mother plant until the roots show through the coco then the clone is cut from the mother and planted.
This method, theoretically, allows a mother with as many clones as possible to only count as one plant for those who have a finite number of plants allowed.
I'm perfectly happy to stick with pro-mix for now but I could see a few hempy buckets down the road a bit. And the watering system would already be in place, heheh.
