Pretty much my process minus the gel. One thing I try to do is always have 2 nodes buried and pour a little of the rooting power into the hole in the medium before inserting the clone and keep the humidity as high as you can for the first week.I was a little confused last night when I responded
I’ve only made a few attempts. But I have been successful.
I watched a video where a guy cut the limb off the plant with a sterile, cutting tool. Being careful not to crush the plant material.
Then he put it in a glass of water, so that air didn’t get into it. Then he cut this about a half inch slit up the middle and scraped the sides of the cut it end.
Then he dipped it in cloning gel, and then cloning, Powder. I just put it straight in the dirt, here’s a pic of the best one I’ve done and what I use. That gel and powder together were less than 20 bucks.
There’s also a pic of a clone attempt that somehow hasn’t died, but she doesn’t look too good. Lol.
Edit to add I don’t know if it was the video or somewhere else. It said that ANY cloning gel or powder will work with some working better with either Powder or gel that’s why used both.
I take smaller cuts off my plants, just off some of the bottom branches. I just need them to live...the time it takes to root and grow into a fully vegged and ready to flower plant has to co- ordinate with my tent so I've 2.5 months to veg any earlier I've no where to put it/them.Same here, I'm using rooting harmone from lowes and and rooting into a pre made mixture of organic potting soil and Dr Earth dry amendments. Mixed up and watered thoroughly 1 week before rooting clones. I keep them at 80/80 humidity and temp and typicaly at 10 days roots are shooting out the bottom of the pot with nice new growth. With the nutrients from the dry amendments kicking in about the same time roots are developing I'm able to keep the clones in the small pots they were rooted in until I'm ready to do something with them without feeding nutes.
Yea, timing is crucial, especially with limited space. I'm running a perpetual grow with 2 4x4s and a 4x8 shorty veg tent. Harvesting every 1 4x4 every 4/6 weeks. Gives me 4-6 weeks to veg (keeping 2 bonsai trained momas for clones. 4 plant runs are working great.I take smaller cuts off my plants, just off some of the bottom branches.

Its way too expensive...never again......lots of alternatives...but the shit helps. I've used honey, aloe, and powders too and I'm not 100% its any better than anything else...it might just be me....lol...something took me from 75% - 100%...Clonex seems to cost considerably more than gel/solution from other brands. Is it really that much better? Doesnt it just come down to the concentration of rooting hormones?
That little one needs a humidity boost. id sugest taking a ziplock bag, spraying th inside and put it over the pot like a dome and she should bounce back in 4 or 5 days.I was a little confused last night when I responded

sounds like a nice set up...I don't keep moms, I take cuts, flip the mom & raise the kids when moms done so are the kids so I take cuts off the kids and flip them....the cycle continues....I've 7 - 8 different strains going now...with 2 tents a 5x5 and a 3x3 with an 8x3 veg closet. I have a revegged auto going...4 months old and another month plus before I've anywhere to put her. I just put her in a 5 gal pot today, I could see signs of stunting...I've pics in my profile of herYea, timing is crucial, especially with limited space.

Theese clones will be flowering in 6 weeks.
Thanks for the adviceThat little one needs a humidity boost. id sugest taking a ziplock bag, spraying th inside and put it over the pot like a dome and she should bounce back in 4 or 5 days.
Sweet! Sounds very simular to my set up. I also use the same technique for most of my strains but I had this one wedding Cake that was super dank that I forgot to pull clones from so I pulled and cloned a budsite at 8 weeks into flower. What's that....a super crop or something like that lol. Took 2 months to see any type of new growth but she's banging now! And the second little moma is a normal clone that mutated...it knuckled up at the first node and started shooting branches off like a Supercroped clone. No training or anything so l just had to hold onto her. Pulled 6 clones off of each a few days ago and I'll probably put theese to flower next cycle.sounds like a nice set up...I don't keep moms, I take cuts, flip the mom & raise the kids when moms done so are the kids so I take cuts off the kids and flip them....the cycle continues....I've 7 - 8 different strains going now...with 2 tents a 5x5 and a 3x3 with an 8x3 veg closet.

Perfect! Mist the dome and plant twice a day with a spray bottle till she perks up. Good luck Growmie!Thanks for the advice
Only been a minute. That plant is responding well. Thanks againThat little one needs a humidity boost. id sugest taking a ziplock bag, spraying th inside and put it over the pot like a dome and she should bounce back in 4 or 5 days.
Okay a pic of my reveggged auto, I took last nightOnly been a minute. That plant is responding well. Thanks again
