I was trying to shorten a plant.

[vaporedout]

ahhhh, is it better than just cutting the plant in half and leaving the lower part?

 

[dankworth]

Gigantic scrogged moms. Air-layered at the metal part of the scrog screen. Plant count would be better for some in some states. Badass work.
Advice? Repeat as necessary. Joke.
Pretty cool. I air-layered for a bit.

The plants was gifted to me, and was trimmed like a palm tree, nothing on the stalk for the first 12 inches.

Howdy Vapor. :) It was mostly just for fun, an experiment. This plant was a runt..and not branching much.(until i did this to it)
I wanted cuts to make clones....and Didn't want to take the top off and have it Not root....So went with this method..

I think I Supercropped it pretty good too. ;)

I am wondering if I should start feeding it a bit...maybe some kelp water..Couldn't hurt..
But its still feeding the top with suppercropped stem..so?

Nice! what did you prep/water it with? How long til it rooted?

 

[leadsled]

Sweet, wait for some more roots, cut and plant. Hope she makes it for you.

Used clonex and rock wool. Plain well water with a turkey baster:) I started it 17 days ago. and almost gave up hope.
I had to look back to my post on this thread
Contest for free beans..............Come one Come All
but this one is not my entry

[nebulius]

Always learning something new, thanks Ken for sharing. Wow plants are amazing! Cool how adaptable they are. So much possibility.

 

[ESER.ONE]

Nice job bro. I had read about this alot and knew it worked but had yet to see someone actually do it...

 

[caregiverken]

Hi guys..I dont know WTF in doing here...The top of this plant just keeps getting bigger!:eek:

The roots are filling in and out of the rock wool. But Im not sure that theere is enough roots to support that big clone. :confused:

It drinks O lot of water...I give it about an oz of water a couple times a day. Pain in the ass kinda..


When can I cut this?...Cant really turn back now..:rolleyes:

 

[outwest]

I saw this picture and for a second I was like hanging on the edge of my seat. A real fucking cliff hanger. What's a poor dirt farmer to do?! Stay tuned for next week's episode!

We're rooting for you Ken! (pun intended)

Boy ken. This is even out of my line of expertise... Get back to me when you start grafting ;) Thats some mighty fine work you have. Maybe set it up on a drip system? Im sure you could get a small set up for 20$
