Wait. Did I mean dumb or some or both? Just got stung by the blue widow and am unsure.
Who says you cant get budded cuttings to strike. i’ve done it before - once - but never managed to get it to re-veg. I had this amazing purple bud plant growing outdoors. i mean the buds were just so bright purple Id never come across anything like it. smoked of sweet cinnamon and cloves. she was from a seed I scored by chance and never thought to take cuttings off her before she flowered. By the time I realized how special the plant was it was too late. So at harvest I kept an 8” bud aside ad tried to root it. It sat under a cfl for 24hrs a day for 4 months, it did some weird re-veggie kinda stuff but they never turned into viable shoots. in the end i gave up as it started to look sick and I could tell it’s health had started to dwindle. when I pulled it out of the pot it had the most massive ball of healthy roots, it was crazy, all those roots for that tiny little bud. It looked like it was so pumped up full energy but nowhere to channel it. Sad..
That is the natural alternative to dissolving aspirin in water? Right? I have only read about the aspirin water. Never tried it. After all dome people have accused me of owning Clonex! Lol
So why can’t you take cuttings of budding plants and get them to strike? is it about the hormones or the plant being exhausted already or something like that?
I agree Prince and i would nevet leave the bud on. Clip that bitch off!Yes you can get buds to strike. But the longer into the flower period they are the harder it is to reverse them into grow again. If you succeed in obtaining a root system then you need to consider what has already happened and what is presently happening at a hormonal level. This is where exogenous cytokinins might be applicable.
