does it matter how thick a stem can be when cloning? is it the thicker the better? so it doesnt matter if its room temp or not? will warm water work i just dont want to put my clone into shock using cold water/QUOTE]
I know, this thread is about 8-9 years old, but the information is still relevant today. Dude, I'm not trying to be rude or single you out, but just try to keep this in mind. onthedl0008 wrote out very detailed and easy to understand instructions for cloning using just water. It's all very straightforward if you just follow the formula. The questions that you are asking are really for YOU to decide or to research further if need be. He even told you that 5-6 nodes and about 6" is a good blueprint for when to cut your clone. So why are you bothering asking about stem thickness and an Exact water temp? A plant is a living thing and they will differ from time to time. Use your best judgement or do some more research, trial and error. Growing marijuana, or any plant for that matter, is NOT an exact science. You will not always have all of the answers nor do you need them. You're taking something that is very simple & making it way more complicated than it needs to be. Just treat your plants/clones with respect & watch over them on a daily basis & you should be fine. Plants tend to do just fine until people start over analyzing everything and that's when the problems start to pop up.
