Hey MC.
It's a cutting. Doing that helps them to keep moist.
I thought I was quite artistic. Better than a dog :(
Only jk :)

I always trim the leaf ends like that when I take cuttings too, most growers do it.

Shes a healthy little specimen V12, like all your plants :-)

Hey MC. Never really counted my grows.
Been growing under lights since I got my first apartment in 1981 although things were a bit different back then. Nutes came from the rear end of horses and things like hydroponics and pc's were yet to be invented!
Most of my grows have been in restricted spaces so I guess I have plenty of experience, but I've still learned plenty of new tricks from the helpful people here at RIU in the last few months so I wouldn't consider myself an expert by any means.
Speaking of new tricks, I especially love myth busters and big props go out to cerebralvibrator for smashing the 1 plant per pot myth and also floridasucks for proving that 80% humidity is no barrier to growing. Those guys are genuine pioneers and I have a lot of respect for them :)

Hey CV. I noticed you trim the leaves too. Just hope that little soldier does as well as your ladies. She still needs the humidity dome but I checked underneath last night and she has a tiny little tap root now, so I can uncross my fingers at least :)

Welcome johnno and thanks for the kind words.

Nice man so basically you were kinda doing stealth grow before pc growing came out lol. Man dude i think i got bad news i looked in on my grow this morning and the 2 ones in a trash bin looks like they are telling me sex but still to small to tell but one of them im for sure is probably a male because it looks like there is 3 little round things they look like they are stuck together but aren't 1 thing and there is another set of these on the other side of the node and on the node above that node. I would take a picture but it will be way to blurry and i have nothing to look up close to tell what it is. The other one in the trash bin looks like it is also telling sex but there one has like 1 little thing on both sides of the nodes i think this one might be female. i wish i could post a picture where you all can tell what it is so i can get it the hell out my grow now.

You have a little while before the males will cause a problem MC. Long enough to tell what sex they are at least. Sounds like 1 will be a girl though, so a harvest is coming your way :)

They've been resting. Luckily they don't snore as bad as some ladies I've known :)
It's 9:50pm here and today starts for them in about 10 minutes.
It's most hypnotic when I look in on them. The smell is amazing and it's just a wall of healthy green. I've been a bit lazy recently and let them just grow cos they look so nice :)

Which mine was like that :( im all confused. My oldest one's new branches not the big fan leaves but the new ones shooting off the main stem arent all growing at the same height well only 2 seem to be shooint off the main stem the others are staying all close to it and i moved the fan leaves so they can get light but idk. How many clones can you get off your plants?

Just get the very top ball of growth and gently hook it down just below the sidebranches you want to stimulate. That should kickstart it. You will need to train some of the sidebranches too.

I don't take cuts from my plants. The 12/12 means that they are flowering by the time they have enough growth. That cutting came from an old harvested plant that went outside for revegging. I'm hoping it will keep me in cuttings for the next 3 months and then supply a bumper crop for the winter months :)

If you look carfully you can see her in her new home here:

You can flower the plants directly from sprouting if you want. Check out the growFAQ, it will answer all of your questions :blsmoke:
