Dont quote me but I dont think you can, should of taken a clone just before flower.

Nevermind start a new seed under a cfl, by the time you have harvested you will just about be in flower, and go clone crazy! bongsmilie
 
Yeah you can, I've read about people taking cuttings as late as 6 weeks, it just takes longer and gets more difficult to revert back the further in you are. It'll actually work out well if you can keep it alive, reveg/clones from flower can really bush out into monsters

oh yeah, how to..Cut a 4-8" top, throw it right into a bowl of cold water so it floats around, leave it for 5-10 mins. the cutting will absorb water while in there, increasing it's reserves. I'm assuming you're in soil? Fill some cups or something with damp soil, poke a hole in the middle about half the depth of your clones. Take clone out of water, cut about 1/4" off bottom at an angle, strip all ffoliage up to the top set of fan leaves and growth tip, cut those fan leaves in half. scrape stem about halfway up, dip in rooting aid, stick in hole in dirt and pack dirt around it. cover with a dome of some sort, an inverted cup works well, or cut 12oz soda bottle. Take the dome off a couple times a day for a few minutes, give it a shot glass of water if it looks droopy, keep temps above 70..take a couple just in case..

Thx bro very detailed
 
Yes. I just took some clones from my plant 6 weeks into flower. I heard they take longer to root. I took 6 cuttings that had small buds and were not going to be anything. I wasnt going to clone them but I figured Id give it a shot just to see what would happen. They all rooted in 7 days.
 
try it, if it doesnt work or you get a shitty clone you can always reveg the whole plant after harvest
 
I've had luck taking clones from plants that have been at 12/12 for 7 days. After that point your success rate will go way down. Also, donor moms should be at least 5 weeks old themselves before giving up viable cuttings.

Good luck, BigSteve.
 
Hey fellas all the clones I took rooted in soil bur not really seeing any new growth any help please thx in advance

I just did exactly that. A week in, I Had doubts about a couple others making it so I grabbed a couple replacements. Worked fine, both took 9 days to show first root. Which actually beat some of the pre flower cuttings which averaged 8. Oh and the original two made it also.

The new deal is aerocloner set ups...24 site for less than 200 bucks...plug and play!

Party cups--picked up around friend's yard... after a party.
Water--artesian spring (public)
Basic $14 a 2cuft Promix

So since the Promix is accounted for in the "Grow" and not the cloning process my clones cost me nothing and my overall success rate will be 89% after this run. That said, I would love an aerocloner...but as I fill up my room with 6 plants it would be hard to justify.

Edit: Forgot that I do utilize a rooting hormone at a rate of about $.0002 per plant. :bigjoint:

That's what I'm trying to do be patient bro should I still keep humidity dome on foliar feed or anything

No, don't feed until they are pretty well established. This is one thing I've had good success with; successful rooting of cuttings.
The waiting is the hardest part.
Some leaves may yellow and fall off, when they turn yellow at the edges and droop clip them off. No big deal. When it starts showing growth you can start feeding, probably, depending how hot your medium is.
Take the humidity tent off and watch, if the plants start to sag within a couple of hours put it back on.

I agree and will add that last cloning session I used some potting soil instead of my Promix and worried when even after 3 weeks I was seeing no roots. But, things were green and looked ok so after a mentor consult much like the above I sat tight and things exploded around day 30. In retrospect I think I was keeping the soil too wet.
