I took several clones off of my XXX Skunk i'm growing now, believe it or not I took them during the 4th week of flowering just as a test and all 3 of them survived with 2 of them doing really well. I have these clones along with the Green Goo and 5 XXL Big Bud seeds (that were my Christmas present from the Mrs.
) in my veg chamber on 24/0. They vary in height from 4-8 inches and will all be going into the flower room on 12/12 in a few days when I harvest my biggest most busty lady.
All of my future grows will be clones that veg for a couple weeks and then go right into flowering for just over 2 months. I'm keeping one of each of the three strains in veg. for mothering so that I will have constant clones being produced. I also like this grow because I will be growing a pure sativa(Goo), mostly pure indica(BigBud), and a 50/50(XXXSkunk). This nice variety should keep me from having to buy any medicine anywhere else.
Also just wanted to throw in there that I have been cloning plants on many separate occasions and have never used a cloner. Just take the cutting, expose the cell membrane on all sides at the bottom with a razor, dip in root hormone, plant in peat moss starters, put under low-intensity light, and keep the peat semi-moist. Might take a week longer than a cloner but I usually am geared towards not spending any money, haha.
Merry Christmas to All, Stay High Around the Holidays!!!
