Many never open their clones to see what they achieved.
Allow me to present a bad clone that will forever be weak, not grow well and subject to every stress you can imagine. The problem will all those roots is that the energy that was in the clone needs to be dedicated to building a callus, not roots.
The other is a good clone.
Plant nutrition of the Mom’s is probably the most critical variable in cloning. If that plant is not full of CALCIUM, and the woowoo synthetic hormones are painted half way up the cut, I wish you luck.
Absolutely. I’ll dissect anything that lives through the jar of the water. They are 5 pairs for sexing. So it might be a couple or six weeks before I get to it.
Wasn’t throwing shade on you clones. Totally agree with taking a look see at what is below the soil line.
Sexing was done on the plants today. So no need for those clones at this point.
Pretty sure I could lay my hands on all the parts I needed to bring the bucket back online if I needed it, and that jar will support at least a 1/2 dozen more reasonably sized clones if I recall correctly.
Random question, why do cuttings taken from outdoor plants seem so hard to get to root? I am using root riot plugs and powder. It’s 90% or better, unless the plant has been outside. Last year I cut a tray of 100 off an outdoor plant and lost every one. They seemed to turn brown on the tips from some sort of fungus. If it was powdery mildew, it wasn’t the normal white kind. I have used a clone dip, flying skull clone guard, but it did not make a difference.
