Cloning?????

I am thinking about cloning my plants, and I got a lot of info on it from friends and other websites, but just want to know more.
How do i know my plants are ready.
They are about 8 inches tall. Can i just cut the leaf stems at an angle and stick them in dirt???? HELP PLEASE

You can't just take a leaf and clone it.

You need the node and you can basically take it any time you want! Get some good cloning gel, I personally use Clonex and I think that Schultz Rooting Powder is not as good. Technaflora makes some, and a lot of other companies too. Go to your local Hydro shop or check out HTG Supply.

There are several different ways to do it and they all seem to work. If only I could afford an EZ cloner, those things are Perfect!
