heres what went on last night...
i got 8 cuttings off my querkle mother.. exactly how many i needed.. i trimmed my mother plant down to one shoot... this way my box won't get over crowded while my clones are rooting, this will also give the mother plant to grow out some before my next round of cuttings. i trimmed her down to what it was when i first took it as a clone...
my cloning method is simple... i bought a couple of rectangular tupperware containers awhile back. i am actually keeping my mother plant in em. i painted the outside container black, and left the inside one clear to moniter root development. i did poke holes in the bottom of the inside container for drainage when i water. i am using the other two containers as humidity domes. i am using 5 oz dixie cups to keep my jiffy pucks and clones inside of... they will remain here for about two weeks or so, then transplanted to party cups for a week or so... i yeah.. forgot to mention i dip the clones in rooting powder before placing in the jiffy pucks... thats pretty much it...
step 1) soak pucks
step 2) take cuttings
step 3) place swolen pucks in 5 oz dixies
step 4) dip cuttings in rooting powder and place in pucks. firmly squeezing the puck to wrap snuggly around the cutting.
step 5) place cups in tupperware
step 6) cut one hole in the lid of tupperware
step 7) pour 5oz of water in the bottom of the tupperware to keep high humidity levels
step 8) mist all fresh cuttings with spring water
step 9) put lid on top of tupperware containers
step 10) patiently wait and check for roots to appear
step 11) once roots appear, transplant to veg container and let the fun begin.
i should add that i keep my lights on 24/0 for my mother plants and clones.
i have had 100% success with this cloning method. i am not super sterile with everything either... i take my cutting by pulling them off with my hands... no scissors.
i hope this helps people out who have never clond, or those that have tried with no success... three things to remember that are very important... warmth, humidity, and light. provide those three things and you should have clones... do not question any of the technique and do exactly what is said... its simple and it works... i wouldnt say it matters what kind of rooting powder or jiffy puck you use. however, i am doing comparitive clones with dif types of pucks and dif types of rooting powder just to make sure... being i have 1 strain to test this on, my results shoud be about the same. i personally feel that the brand has no influence on success... just my opinion...
read through your whole thread...it's mega!!
