went to my plants outdoors the other day theyre all about a foot and a half tall and one of them was in half, the stem dangling by a thread i decided to cut it 45 degree angle and try to clone it in some olivis cloning solition, 3/4 cup per gallon dipped it in that and put it in soil in my greenhouse keeping the soil moist with the solution hoping for the best, it was my purple kush to:(never tried cloning before so help on this situation is much appreciated!!bongsmilie

Not sure what you're asking, but in a similar thread I saw a guy recommend putting a container around the base of the plant buried a couple inches down so the sliugs cant get through it. Like a plasitc coffee can or something, anything. This may be misinformation though, so keep searching and good luck.

You should put a dome on top of your clone, it has no roots and feeds through it's leaves, it needs high humidity to survive. Within 2 to 3 weeks you can gradualy romve the hood and see how it handles being in open air, if it droops or doesn't look good put the dome back on for an other week or two.

A plastic bag will do fine in a pinch. just spray you plant with a fine myst every now and then, not too much, just enough to keep humidity in there.
