Nice man i picked up a bottle of clonex for my next grow, im going to clone all the tops, hopefully i get some good results

thats how i keep my clones.

i'm pretty sure youll have no problem cloning its pretty easy, i just hate waiting for them to root.
the past two tines i took clones the powerkush took 4 more days to show roots.

Hhahah ! A broken Clonex Pack! my nucchah! I hate clonez, cause they hate me but a $4 Clonex pac, lets me know, i aint the only!!

 

[howak47]

1st attempt to clone i took the pics last night and today they still look good

Fa sho, them clones looks good homie, i hope they root ok, keep us posted.

 

[TrynaGroSumShyt]

they look good, just watch the humidity, u can cut the bottom few nodes or clip the leaves to help root faster.

watch the moisture in the jiff's, i find that dry up a lil faster than the root plugs i use now and somestimes they look most but they are dry.

you're gonna have to let me get some of that over my way

thanks man what should the humidity be? right now its 82 and the humidity is around 73 and how often do i need to mist the leaves wioth water?

 

[TrynaGroSumShyt]

i keep my humidity between 70-100% as long as i can see the consation on the walls i feel its ok.. most guides ive seen say mist as often as you please. i mist usually 2-3 times a day..

btw, this is what i meant about the leaf clipping, there is a reason behind it, but i dont remember it exactly.

not my pic
Edit:

Now that you have cut the plant the cutting has no roots, therefore cannot take up water and is vulnerable to drying out. Leaves transpire (let moisture out) so by trimming the leaf in half we halve the area of transpiration and give the cutting a chance to make roots. This may seem a little harsh slashing all it's leaves like this, but don't worry, it's all for the good of the clone. Cut up to 2/3rds of the bigger leaves off but don't cut or damage the growing-tip. This technique also saves room in the propagator and allows for more clones to fit.

Edit:

ok thanks yea i was going to ask is there any reason to clip the leaves in half like that

The reason you cut the fans is to help lower transpiration and to not trap moisture between the overlapping fingers. This trapped moisture can lead to molds ect.
