Thanks for the reply PK!As far as i know you can't really tell the sex until it''s in flowering mode.
For flowering it's not really the type of light you have but the amount of light there is. Photoperiod plants are set to maximum 12 hours of light
Normally, if i plan on growing in soil i just put my clone right away in soil. I do dip them in a root gel before hand. This way the roots that will grow will be used to the soil. However, i you must see roots before planting than tap water it is. No nutrients as it''s pointless for a clone that has no roots yet.
When i don't' know the sex of the seed I allow the plant to grow and i just do LST or HST. Once flipped to flower mode I check the plant for hairlines or ballsacks. If it has hair showing than i take my clones and push them back to veg while the main plant is still in flower mode.
You can have a flower plant go back into veg. However, it's best to take your clones when the plant is already in veg mode.
Cfl 12_12 will work but I would root the clone 18 6 then flip. Here's my hi tech clone machine.Thanks for the reply PK!
the goal here, is to take cuttings to determine sex of the bigger plants so im not wasting time tending to a male plant and get to the females faster.
so what your saying is, is that you suggest to see roots before planting? thats how I read it, lol. I don't need to see them for myself, I just want something to show sex so I can cull the males. its for future reference, not the run im currently on.
just a small little box I can sick 3-4 cups to determine the cuttings for the bigger plants. does that make sense? lol
nice newfangled tech ya got there ;) lolCfl 12_12 will work but I would root the clone 18 6 then flip. Here's my hi tech clone machine.
the clone itself isn't super important, I just really need to keep them alive long enough to determine the sex of the plant it came fromI accidentally left a jar of water with extra cuts I did not plant in my flower tent under 12/12 and all went to flower after 12-14 days just sitting in the water.I would experiment with that perhaps as a quick cheap way if the fate of the clone in not super important
Cali connection has your tip on their website. I tried it once but it died before it showed.I accidentally left a jar of water with extra cuts I did not plant in my flower tent under 12/12 and all went to flower after 12-14 days just sitting in the water.I would experiment with that perhaps as a quick cheap way if the fate of the clone is not super important
Was it in a dome? I did mine at "normal" vpd numbers in my flower tent. And again, it was an accident but I have intentionally rooted clones in just water before.Cali connection has your tip on their website. I tried it once but it died before it showed.
No dome just water. I also tried rooting in soil with dome_12-12-no luck there either.Was it in a dome? I did mine at "normal" vpd numbers in my flower tent. And again, it was an accident but I have intentionally rooted clones in just water before.
now i get ya, thats smart! let me know what happens as i've got two plants in soil that i don't' know the sex ofThanks for the reply PK!

In my experience I used to root em and by that time the moms showed the. Sex. Technique is to take healthy lower branch/ branches soak in water for 25 hours the. Just stick em seed starting soil and I put I. Ina clear solo with drain hole cover by a red one no holes and I can take out to see if it roots. At 530 pm Iβll cover her with a small garbage can till 10 pm go take it if and by 6-9 days u will see either hairs female or balls males and h know then to make FPJ with the males and and I keep the clones just in case I find a keeper but most get gifted to family and friends. If I start indoors in early April and time my light to outsides sun. No hiccups and big plant with a long veg. 10 gallons pots minimum outside especially whenu go organic the biggger the better with that said 11/13 will speed up flower time so u can use that to show sex of cuts fast and trust the cut do not need to be rooted just have plenty of waterCfl 12_12 will work but I would root the clone 18 6 then flip.

Yes that happen from lack of strong sunlight. Itβs super cool cause u can see sex fast. They may reveg with little worriesI accidentally left a jar of water with extra cuts I did not plant in my flower tent under 12/12 and all went to flower after 12-14 days just sitting in the water.I would experiment with that perhaps as a quick cheap way if the fate of the clone is not super important
