Yeah, slow, but fuckin Healthy! I can't wait to taste it... three more months or so.... After cloning and rooting and vegging and flowering...
Yes, topped her last Thursday.

Right now I'm using the FloraNova Grow and Bloom. Think after this grow I might switch it up. Check out AN or Humbolt brands.

Alright, here's my little cloning Lesson using a basic misting aerocloner, as promised.
This is the Stealth Hydro Model - The Mistic cloner.
First Off
The tools
Clorox wipes or lysol for sterilization
A cup of water pHed to 5.8-6.2
Superthrive
Clonex Cloning Gel
A Cutting tool
A pH pen
And some weed to smoke...
The cut
First off sterilize everything. The cup of water, the cloner, the neoprene sleeves, the scissors and the knife. Make your cut flush to the trunk because that makes it easier and less stressful for the plant to heal. Use a sharp straight razor or very sharp scissors. Make the cut at a 45* angle, then immediately put it under water, then cut it again under water about a 1/2 inch higher then the original cut also at an angle. This will eliminate any air embolisms. Dip in the cloning gel and insert into neoprene sleeve. Repeat as necessary.
Pop them back in the cloner and Boom! Your all set
The Rooting Envirement
This is probably the most important part of the cloning process. You want a near 100% humidity around the roots and leaves of the plant while still supplying small amounts of fresh air. I've found the plants experience the least amount of stress if I cover them with a dome.
The humidity of my Veg room where my clones will be staying is around 45%-55% humidity at all times. Which is good for veg,but not great for clones. So I pull apart a pen and put the pen through the sleeve up into the dome. Supplying moisture to the clones on the upper side of the reservoir. I also rest it on the other sleeves so there is a 1/4 inch gap or so around the clones so they can get a bit of fresh air as well.
Give them a good foliar spray and pop on the Dome. Your going to want to spray them 2-3 times a day for at least the first couple days. After that back off from misting a bit to force them to push roots searching for water. If you notice any yellowing of the leaves this is the time it will most likely happen.
After about thirty min or so... Near 100% humidity...
Now I play the waiting Game
