Good luck!! I tried monster cropping the same day I chopped (wk 10). Clone looked good but it never rooted. It looked good for 3 weeks but after that the stem base turned red and I knew that it rotted instead of rooted. Let me know how it goes!

Oh yeh sorry, in the reveg thread they are harvesting and then leaving some lower buds to reveg not monster cropping

Day 21 from flip is too early for me to tell which ones are keepers, but good to know. Usually from wk 6+ I can tell which ones fit my criteria as keepers and by then it's a little too late already. Wk 10 was TOO LATE but damn I had a really nice pheno, worth a shot.

from my very limited experience.. it takes 10 -14 days from those ( day 21) clones to root, then another 2 weeks to start actually growing. So you could take many clones, then just toss the ones you don't like.

i took a mid week 5 doing last grow, as long as it has roots it will come back, but it does take a LONG time. I know it is too late now but most of my reading has said day 21 from flip is optimal time for monster cropping. If you want to go deep down the rabbit hole, I started here, this guy detailed everything. https://www.rollitup.org/t/monster-cropping-101.991476/
nice, thanks!
It had roots when i planted the peat pellet

i didnt trim buds from the clone, that ok?
Anything special for care? Its in soil, quantum board, plain water

yeah i didn't trim the buds my first time either, it should still work, but take a little longer. I'm hydro, started in rapid rooter plugs, in a dome, and when roots show then into a small mini dwc bubbler. I would, and do treat them like a young seedling.

it took mine about 3 weeks to root and 5 more weeks to reveg and be planted into 7 gallons of soil well worth the wait this thing is bringing me a pound under 600 watts at least thats the plan

Does the humidity from the dome make the flowers on the monster crop rot?

they will be fine air out the dome after 3 days once a day use clear cups inside dark cups and when you see a good root system put them in the veg room its a long process not sure yet if it was worth it i will let you know in march but so far yeah they are very strong thick and healthy

Monster Crop 2018

The only one of nine taken at day 33 of flower, 12/12, that made it.

It took about 25 days to get to this point.

Then I had to wait for the current grow to finish so I had to keep them in veg for around 2.5 months. But I kept them tied down low.

Decided it was time for the preflower trim, and I may have gone a bit overboard, but it work out well.

I felt much better a week later when they responded like this. Seven days after that trim and one day before flip to flower!

Then there was the 21st day defoliation.

Forty days later, day of harvest.

Think I got 19 zips of trimmed, dried, jared and cured of buds and a number of zips of larf, shit I did not want to prune. I went into making FECO.
Too much work for the return but was fun to do.

For an extra frame of reference, I took these at day18 from flip around the first time I responded. I also agree with above statement, it’s what works for me as wellimage.jpg
