i wanted to ask ,im new but i started my plants by seed .got them from buydutchseeds and white rhino and bubblegum.i for some reason all of my white rhinos died after a month they were like 2 foot tall and seems like they just dried up other ones .bullegum are fine.but i let them get to tall like 4 foot before i sex them.i plulled all the males like 75%.so i have 5 left .they are tall but my prob is the females started buding.so i went back to 24/24 but they seem like their not coming out of it big white hairs ,my question is should i just go back to 12/12 .go ahead and bud thes since their so tall.i wanted some clones for out side.my thought i should just bud these and start over with seeds again but sex them when their like 12".any reason my white rhinos died .i used 5 gal buckets and filled with like 1/3 mir grow dirt put some bone meal in mixed up then another mir grow dirt with blood meal then another 1/3 mir grow dirt fine for first 1 month or month and a half but just seem like they dried up.my main guestion is the big ones though.thanks this is my first post lol.

You dont have to add anything to miracle grow and blood and bone meal are touchy stuff thats what killed those plants. If you wanna clone look down low on the plant for branches to cut that dont show bud sites yet. New young growth. Take a couple and then flower the moms.Once you get 3-5 clone going you can start over. Best way to sex a plant is when its about 8-10 inches take a clone get it rooted then flower the clone 12/12 and if its a fe,ale so is the mom it came from. You dont wast time or screw up a plant by starting it to flower

If you go to the top of the page click on GrowFAQ. Then click on whatever catagory you want info about. Like cloning, plant problems, whatever tons of info.

heres a great video on cloning. And you can still clone it, the sooner the better though, longer you wait the less chance the clone will root. Just find a lower branch that hasnt buded yet. Good luck. :) make sure u keep the clone humid, thats important, and also make sure the soil is warm.
