I received 2 clones from a friend back in March 1st. I am just about to harvest them, my first harvest. I cloned those moms back then and kept 4 which I am now also about to switch to flower and they are bigger than the moms so I cut 8 more today with just a few adjustments via things I learned since then.
**Note: I do not claim to be a professional or anything. I have had a set up for about 4 months and have spend countless hours watching tutorials, videos, reading, talking with people, visiting forums, etc. and I'm still pretty new but I feel confident in what I've learned so far. I CAN say that we have been successful because all 6 of my 1st clones rooted though it took like 3 weeks, and I gave two away and have 4 awesome flourishing bushes now which gave me 8 more cuts. Please see my steps and the photos that go with them.
Items I use:
I use some latex gloves, scissors that I cleaned with alcohol, 2 bowls of water, jiffy pellets, a 5 dollar envelope of Clonex gel, a skinny pain brush or any skinny like item, paper towels, a tray with grooves and a dome for the top, that's about it.
Step 1:
Identify your cuts off the plant, cut at 45 degree angle and put them in bowl of water immediately. Let them soak while you work, put your other plants back.
Step 2: Put your peat pellets in the bowl of water so they can expand.
Step 3: Cut lower leaves off cuttings and cut a half inch of fan leaves to divert energy.
Step 4: Scrape ends of cutting, ensure 45 degree angle. Dry off ends of cuttings and dip in cloning gel, coating nicely.
Step 5: Place coated cutting into expanded peat pellet and drop a teaspoon of water into the middle.
Step 6: Place them all in tray and spray inside of dome and cover the clones in tray.
Keep them in a warm and humid place. Spray inside of the dome twice a day for first few days. After pellets dry up a bit, pour a small layer of water in tray, maybe 1/4 inch, it will force them to look down for water and root. Once I see the roots I transplant right into my Roots Organic Soil. They have slight signs of nute burn but nothing severe, recovered NICELY. You can see how nicely my first cuttings came back....
