Leaf tips are cut on clones to get energy directed to growing the roots.

how does that redirect the energy? wont the leaves just continue to grow?

Leaves will continue to grow after roots are established but the main reason leaf tips are cut is so less respiration of moisture occurs and the plant can save water.

will she be okay? i think im going to remove the dome when the lights are on, and put it on during the dark hours. it got a little hot in there for her.

and i guess the stink bug enjoys the smell of the cannabis. hes sleeping on it lol. i started him when i picked him off.

WTF are these? Do you water with straight Clorox?

 

[bmeat]

it was the heat i think. can i still grow roots with droopiness?

 

[Sunbiz1]

ugly plant was grown in mud/clay so it needed three transplants. everytime, i fucked the root ball up.

i was watering it wrong the whole time. i was making the soil really wet when it should only be damp.

i was feeding it chemical vigoro every other watering, which hurt it during veg.

it had no lights for a week during hurricane sandy.

then when i finally fixed it up..i dropped a shoe box on it one night when i was drinking and decapitated it..

There's an old saying, if you can't cook stay the hell outta the kitchen...same applies to growing.

These are weeds, not orchids...yet somehow you manage to make every mistake known to man and even invented a few new ones along the way.

Find a dealer, cuz' you simply have a black thumb.

And I'm fairly sure I already posted this last month to the OP, if everyone watched it this section of the board would hardly be used.

will the clone die if its drooping? no yellowing or anything.

i labled this as an experiment for a reason. i knew soil is hard to clone with, and i didnt use any hormone. gonna make some out of a young willow when the spring comes around.

What? Huh?

Like you said in post #57 this is your experiment.

Stick a cutting in soil (not a good cloning medium) and not using rooting hormone is a design for failure. That's why people that clone do it in cubes with hormone.

Do you just like to torture innocent plants? Are you a botanosadist?

kind of sad i had to sacrafice a limb.

You should sacrifice a LAMB, on an altar. Cause you need divine assistance.

Tht also makes sense,Whats the difference in Transpiration where leaves actually sweat from low RH.
What does respiration actually mean....Something to do with oxygen uptake?

Ive noticed transpiration before when RH is too low,I freaked like where the hells this water coming from,id go check RT as lights were gonna come on and there would be water drops on alot of the leaves.

Or the black polar bears with the transparent fur.

Hey meat beater, I'm still waiting on your reference showing foliar misting damages the roots.

i cant find any hard evidence. i might go get some rockwool cubes and rooting hormone today.

 

[bmeat]

looking much more alive without the heat.

No and you won't find any "hard evidence" because it's just one more bullshit theory you pulled out of your ass.

I'm not even sure you should be smoking pot. If you do I would smoke a whole bunch at once to the point you don't try to communicate. Stone cold sober you come across as all fucked up.

Clones can only absorb water through leaves until they have established roots, hence using a humidity dome. If they wilt, that means there aren't enough roots to support the plant, so back into the dome it goes.

Respectfully noted, but why?

He continually spouts misinformation and admits as much. He has never successfully grown weed. Why does he deserve "a break".

OK in respect to you as a mod I'll back off. But he derails every thread he enters into.

Peace - AIM
