How many clones could I get off this ?

[FlightSchool]

I'm betting 11 3/4



The nice way to put what people are trying to say is,


There is no saying at this point. Some people will have plants big enough at 8 weeks to take 30 clones while other's can take 4.


Or if you're this guy

they won't be big enough for ANY.


There is no real way to answer that question, I was able to take 8 clones from my 5 week old plant and have her still look bushy

Another plant I had that was stunted I could only take 4 off of. It's just not a question anyone can give you a real answer on bud

The deciding factor (besides skill level) that I dont think anyone mentioned yet is wattage. If it is grown under something weak like a cfl you wouldnt get anywhere as near as many as a plant grown under a HID.

I grow mother plants (from clone though) under 600 watt metal halides, one per light. I tie down and top multiple times and by 8 weeks I get around 30 clones per round. More is possible but I thin my plants out so Im only using fat branches.

no more than 20% of the plant usually 15-20 clones every 2 to 3wks.

Off to a good start, this is day 4 but any rough estimates on how many
clones I could pull off an 8 week mother if I FIM and LST a lot for
the most possible nodes to form ?

Planning to grow this untill 4/20 which would give me approx 8 weeks or so
to grab as many clones as possible to root then send this girl outside.

Cut her in half and replant the top in ph'd soil.

In a couple of days the stem portion will grow leaves and the leaved portion will grow roots - bam, just doubled your plant count.

What? Haven't heard that one for getting clones.

this is what you learn in "cloning with bmeat 101"

didn't know people on this shit would be so ignorant from asking 1 simple question.. so i'll ask again....
how many clones is normal to take off a healthy 8 week mother and still being able to leave the main
stalks on it

12 clones should not be a problem charles. good luck. look at my avatar. they both had 10 taken at 6 to 7 weeks.
