no a clone is an exact replica of the plant it came from same DNA...

yer thats what i meant taking cuttings from a plant stared from seed.
i would think that taking clones from clones from clones and so on would drop the thc cos of stress from taking each clone
somewhere down the line the thc would have to drop probably not by much but but it would have to happen

why? explain your theory or is it just a hunch? things like the UK cheese have been clone only for over 25 years, yet it's all the people want

well stress and the further you get from say the mother the more the dna is diluted or weakened but like i said before i dout it would drop the thc % by much and it would take a long time to do so
25 years, i would love to know the thc % of that mother and that of todays clones

"DNA is weakened or diluted" again, do you have any avidence for this? sounds silly to me, DNA doesn't just weaken or diute.

you need to invest in some (plant wax) it will stop wilting by like 80% and speed up rooting cos your not loosing water out of the leaves

clones will droop, give the a few days and they'll be right as rain. i've not heard of using plant wax before on the leaves, so can't say how it works, but there's not any need for it

well every time you stress a plant your dna is slightly weakened not by much but over time it would = up to a loss in thc %

that is day 1 and day 3. nothing done to them. a day after that and they were as healthy as they can possibly be. not quite sure what you're doing if you're clones are being effected that badly.

plant wax is mad it stops water gettin out the leaves and stops light passing throw the leaf. as much as 50% less water gets out the leaves so the roots grow healthier and faster cos there not tryin to get as much water to the leaves

cloning produces genetically-identical copies... unless you have hard fact for it

the clones that iv done with the wax barely wilt at all and are back at full heath most of the time in about 24 hours if not about 30 hours and thats under a 600w hps
