I received some BB#3 and dairy queen cuts in today but looks like a total loss. Has anyone had luck just taking cuts and mailing them? I have had two poeple send them like this and both times got here like this:(

Got my GG#4 like that and some others too. I put mines in rapid rooters but they didn't look as bad as yours. Couple of them have already perked up but I think you can save some of the ones with hard stems still. Recut them and soak them in water they need to be rehydrated. Gonna see what mines are looking like tomorrow wish I could get some pics but so far so good right now.

Yea I prefer to send them in water/mountain dew bottles. Cut the top off enough to slide the clone in, and wrap bottoms with wet paper towels, then the bottle protects the plant from smushing, while trapping humidity as well. Works like a charm!

The RD, SW7 and BMS all came as cuts, I didn't have any problems but it
wasn't 100 degrees either.
All were in blue towels, baggies and ziplock

A few pages back I said "what ever can go wrong will" it's my mantra, well after
getting a 2x increase in my homeowners ins., tent pole missing from kit, I went down
to the growroom this morning and a ballast was fried! what's next? (or shouldn't I ask)
This was this week.

:peace:

Sorry about that doc!


I didn't seal them very well in the plastic. Last ones I got were soggy when I received them, I didn't want you to get soggy cuttings. But it looks like they wilted pretty bad...

Will resend once mine root!

Promise!
Itit cool i was just seeing if people have had luck like this. It has not worked out and might just be how far they have ot get to OR

The last ones I received were completely sealed in the plastic baggie and were soggy. They were cuts, not clones.

Yesterday I received rooted clones in a sealed baggie and they were pristine, (thanks, you know who you are!)

I think temp had to do with it, but mostly shoddy packaging. :-)

I'll get you back bro, I want to see what you do with them.

Mine will be going into flower soon, so you'll know what they look like a bit.

you're familiar with Murphy's Law, "everything that can go wrong, will." Murphy was an optimist.

like me, you've survived this long, it get's to the point of well, what's next.
