Ok cool. I'm not sure which way would be better, just wanted to know which way you went.

Dunno what it was - we had mosquito fogging in the house for Zika virus last week so whatever it was is dead, someone suggested a Preying Mantis, too small for that. But I do have a picture of a dead Preying Mantis, below which makes me sad. Its too small for a Mantis I reckon.
For us they take what they're given, 18/6 or 24 depends what we got to hand. But never 12/12 - but then we always clone before 12/12. Our seedlings until they go to solos get 24.

They call them "wall bugs" in Thai. They build nests on concrete walls, plants or whatever is closest to their convenience. Not very harmful to plants to my knowledge.
Wish my wife just gave me “Wall bugs”!
She was trying to translate the full name. Promises not stingy and not harmful to the house. But about 3m away we have a much bigger one meant to be getting removed.

Yeah I don't like to kill beneficial bugs either although a praying mantis is a generalist predator so it didn't care if it eats other beneficials so not to much of a lossDunno what it was - we had mosquito fogging in the house for Zika virus last week so whatever it was is dead, someone suggested a Preying Mantis, too small for that.

I thought I recognized those my friend raises them for reptile food
Dunno - pretty sure like the one on the door its mud. Not what the article suggests - some sort of secretion?
There’s probably a photo of the month contender with the source material - just need the skillz and phone without three cracked lenses

a guy @KIS organics. Brandon Hudson I'll send him a picture he has friends who are entomologists I'll see if he can find out for me just cause I'm curious!!!! I'll let you know what he tells me if interested!
For sure - & Co is just home so I’m gonna pin her down on my armchair next to the plant and get her to find me a picture of what her jungle girl knowledge tells her.
Well not pin her down physically! That’d be a mistake even trying it. She is a dab hand with a machete

I usually clone while still in veg as well. This was just a test of my new cloning process to see if I could clone a plant well into flower. It was 3 weeks after first pistils and rooted in about 3 weeks.
Like a re veg, yeah? But 3 weeks!

I usually get roots with this process in 7-10 days if I go digging, about 14 days for the roots to show at the sides of the clear inner cup. For these, I saw roots at the cup sides at 21 days so I assume they had actually rooted about a week earlier.
I wanted to test whether I could clone a plant that was far enough into flower that you'd have a sense of smells, and frost potential like if you were on a pheno hunt, or were just surprised at how good a new plant was, but hadn't cloned it while still in veg.
Won't be my normal process though for sure. I wouldn't want the monstercrop, super branchy plant I'll get, so if I did do it in a grow I'd probably let it re-veg and then take clones from that rather than flower out that original cutting.

Have had a few in flower where I’ve been 
shoulda cloned her. My Farmer mate will take clones off every plant on a new strain in case but the very best he will re veg and turn to mothers after harvest.
When we were cloning, I’m sure you’ve seen our SWICKies we’d expect roots to the bottom within a week off a clone.
But as I ever say - our environmentals are a big factor. Plus we’re in Coco.

Any of you fine sip’n folks would care to join me at my journal(in signature) have some harvesting/drying curing questions i see some amber trying to figure out how much longer till the chop block
2 weeks if you can keep her healthy. Be relentless on the check for mould. Gloves on and pull the buds apart looking every day. Chop at the first sign - just ask @Kanno26
