this teqnique of cloning produces strong plants........but its time consuming. its basicly cloning while its still attached to the plant and by the time its rooted its a strong young plant nearly ready to go... not for beginners but an interesting way iff you find normal way boring and fancy summin else a bit harder..only recommended iff you want a small number of strong quality clones.. it basicly still feeds off the mother while rooting... im sure you can imagine the benifit of this...(1) select a vigourous growing tip from mummy and with scalpel gently cut two hoprizontal lines just below the node, circling the stem about 1 cm apart, (2) join the two rings with a virtical cut and peel away the bark/skin watever u wanna call it.(3) GENTLY GENTLY GENTLY cut into layer between bark and inner bit and scrape away the tissue being gentle as poss.(4) aplly rooting gel to node site above the cut cover the whole area including the cut with sphagnum moss..... wrap around some kling film to hold moss in place by wrapping it round the stem leaving top n bottom open to allow watering and drainage, within 10/14 days you will see STRONG roots developed at this point your done and can cut the ambilical cord and say hello to a new baby girl lol this clone is now a strong yooung plant you can keep for mother or grow like theres no tommorow....
