Ok since I'm at home bored today I'm gonna show how I do the cloning process. I'll be taking clones from 3d generation 2. I have room for 8 plants in 1 gallon square pots in each chamber so I'll cut 12 clones just in case. First I get everything ready. I need 1 cup of fresh water, 12 peat pellets (which I go ahead and get soaking in water), my trusty Take-Root rooting hormone that I purchased from Wal-mart, 24 plastic cups, 12 popsicle sticks for labeling, some sharp little scissors, and some tape. So now I'm ready. I cut the clones from near the bottom of the plant, not always the bottom most branches but the ones that are 4-6" long and closest to the bottom. After cutting the clone on an angle close to the meristem I cut away all large fan leaves. Next I cut the bottom 1/8" off the cutting and immediately stick it in the cup of fresh water and swish it around to remove any air bubbles. Then I stick it in the take root about an inch deep. I tap the stem so any excess hormone falls off. Then I simply stick it in the soaked peat pellet and place it in a plastic cup. I label the popsicle stick with plant name and cloning date and later on with the dates I move it into veg and flower. I place another plastic cup on top and tape them together, thus creating a little individual humididome (well thats what I like to call it anyway lol). 7-10 days later these babies are rooted and ready for transplant into 1 gal square pots and moved to veg. Hope you clubbers enjoy.
