Yeah she was a bit of a gem out of bag seed. I liked the smoke and found a seed so i poped it.it actually looks Preety sad in this pic as it was thirsty and just had water so the weight drooped the leaves.. I flipped it 3 days ago and won't be home for another 5 do think I can clone it after its been flipped for a week?
Haha I've cloned plants halfway through flowering. Yeh shouldn't be a problem. If you clone it keep the clones under 17 or 18 hours of light that way it will be easier to plant them outdoors in September

Cheers. I've only ever cloned off a veging plant so new ground for me there.

I'm trying to clone with a cloner now. Cut 3 fresh clones today. Still trying to get the last three going too.

And my revegged lady has been flipped to flower for 4 days now. She's poking through the mesh nicely.

-edit- derp. Forgot to post the pics.

Just potting mix. We dont have rockwool or the other sort of plugs here.

I've been trying to clone in dirt with other containers. And with water only methods and all sorts. So far nothing had worked for me.

So I'm really hoping that this time it works. Because I want to preserve this plants genetics.

Yep you can clone a week after flipping for sure.

Lol how long after topping can I transplant
ur better off doing it together. That way you only slow the plant down once rather than twice. As it gets bigger and veges faster (they really start growing fast when they get some maturity), then topping doesnt seem to slow them down much at all. But ur fine t transplant whenever you want to, just be aware growth may slow for a week as it builds more root stock.

Also look into LST and Super cropping. It has the benefits of topping without the stress. Geta a grow or two under you belt and do some experiments to see what suits you, your space and your style.

I usually just wait until the plant seems healthy not in shock and has a new set of leaves .around a week
We do have Bunnings. I actually live really close to one. But they don't seem to have rockwool. Plenty of vermiculite, perlite and coco coir. Just no plugs. Only other thing I've got is Jiffy Cubes.

If this attempt fails try ask them to order in some rockwool. Sometimes they only have it in large blocks you gota cut it up or try vermiculite I used it last time and worked a treat

Good point on shocking it once I will try it next time.
