I agree with all that is said about clones, the only thing for me is with seed, you might get that one in a thousand plant. My in between grow was my first attempt at cloning, it went well, I would guess three quarters of the clones I took survived and flowered. They did seem healthier than their moms and definitely finished sooner. I still lean towards using seed but I'm sure I'll also take some clones from these plants. I always take off the lower branches anyway, might as well clone them and gift them to a friend. Paying it forward, one person at a time.
Question, do you think a clone could survive in a mason jar for four days if the root system was kept sufficiently moist? My food saver vacuum system works great. The fairy has stopped by and made up a package while I was asleep and mailed it to one of our brothers here. It was reported back to me that no smell could be detected until the actual vacuum seal was broken. If dank can arrive safely in a vacuum sealed package, why can't clones?
Will they survive in a closed environment for the length of shipping? Opinions?
