Hello folks.
Recently I mentioned how I had gotten 2 cuts from my Crescendo to root by just plunking them into distilled water.
Well today I put those cuts into solo cups. Since they're not really babies I used Lush soil. I also gave them a generous portion of mycos.
Here's a better shot of the roots:
And done:
So now they're sitting about 6 inches below my mini-led and I've got more questions than answers!
Since I rooted them using only distilled water and patience, I'm torn. Things are not looking up for my GDBCloner®. If I can get cuttings to root in this fashion, I don't see a need to add additional steps to the process. (And this is the way I have rooted my ornamental plants for decades. But "dim bulb" never thought to try it with weed.)
Fortunately, sales of the GDBCloner® will not plummet. (
But that's only because I've never sold a single one.)

First, let me say that I'm not at all surprised by how dim my bulb can get sometimes. It's almost like I suffer the outages that
@carmen describes in South Africa.
When
@Jon suggested the Crescendo as a high-THC strain I might like, he cited THC ratings in the upper 30's, damn near at 40%. So my anxiety-seeking ass jumped on 'em. I found out where I could get them, bought them and sent one swimming. I found some from Ethos genetics too, so I was really pumped because I've been wanting to try Ethos for a while.
What I didn't do was read any thing about the strain itself. And today when I was looking at her among the other plants was the first time I realized that "something" was different about her. I did a little research on the strain and, long story short, I had zero idea I was growing an 80% sativa hybrid.
So now what do I do? I've purposely stayed away from sativas because they get so tall.
I've got the cuttings on a stack of books to get them close to the mini-led hoping to keep them low.
And one (maybe both) of the cuttings has pistils on her. Does that mean I've monstercropped and will have to wait on reveg?
I guess this could be fun, but I've got some reading to do!

I truly appreciate your interest in my grow.
PEACE.
