it definitely helps. takes a couple of weeks off of the cloning process
couple weeks? this strain is awsome, i get roots in 5-7 days without rooting hormones. this is a very fast growing and rooting plant, just have to make sure the environment is just right and that they get what they need.:bigjoint:

Ive tried oasis, coir/perlite, aero, and finally I have this groclone and Ive gottn only 2 bd to root. Kind of a silly question but one of the bd cuts rooted in 10 days. The only one. Since it rooted does that mean clones taken from this cut will be more likely to root? Or will the clones from that plant be just as likely to root as the original. I know clones are an exact genetic copy, but what caused that clone to root so well, luck?

the genetics would mirror the original plant as long as a mutation didnt take place, which is rare and takes generations. perhaps the other cuttings were contaminated at the cut point, or maybe the one that made it was in just the right spot so it didnt get too cold or hot or dry or dark etc. i have a friend that has trouble with this strain and i cant explain it because we have the same set ups, but he doesnt have this issue with other strains. i have wracked my brain and cant figure it out, so who know...anyone?:wall:

I use new razors, clean trimmers. Ive taken 30 cuts and only 2 have rooted, one in perlite/coir and one in the machine. The perlite one is struggling to live and at this point seems stunted. The other looks great. Ive got 15 in the cloner now, 4 BD have been in ther for 17 days and are growing yet have no roots.

that's insane.. the times i have cloned with just water it has taken closer to 3 weeks for them to be ready to trasnplant, and i only have about 50% success at that.

well, just remember water temp can play a role as well as ambient temp in the grow space. many folks in colder climates use heating pads. i do not have experience with them, so i dunno. but i know temp can be key. colder means slower growth at this point in the cycle. perhaps i am just lucky with my setup, although a lot has gone into it. i have only lost a hendful of clones in the last several years of constantly growing. and i usually end up killing some on purpose because i tend to make extras so i can chose the best ones.
