My plant is a couple days away from flowering so I need to snip a quick clone, however I am having some trouble finding supplies. The Stone-Free video on cloning I saw, told me to get this mixture. 60% Potting Soil, 10% Building sand, 15% perlite, 10% worm castings, 5% premix 12-6-6

I cannot seem to find any worm castings, I have checked at Lowes and Walmart. Does anyone know what worm castings are? By the sound of it, sounds like worm poop, but im not sure, if its smashed up worms, I could easily dig some up.

Next problem is I cant find a 12-6-6 fertilzer, so if any1 could tell me another good fert combination to use for starting the plant out I would appreciate it. I know it needs high Nitrogen, but im not sure how high. Also all the fertlizers were for a certain plant it seemed like, does this matter? For instance some were for Palm Trees, some were for Sunflowers, etc.

Next thing is, how much sunlight do they need after I clone them, All my growing is done outside, in the sunlight. I live in southern U.S so it is hot out, and my other plants are doing beautiful, however I am not sure if there will be enough sunlight out for clones. I would say I get about 14 hours a day, and most of it is direct sunlight. Also should I clone in the morning, so that the clones have the whole day of light to help or should I do it at night, or does it even matter?

Next question is a cloning video, the guy sprayed the clones with a blooming agent, but in other videos, and websites, they just use water. Im pretty sure using a blooming agent that early is silly, but maybe im wrong.

Also I am using Miracle Grow Moisture Control, Iv heard alot of bad things about the old Miracle grow, but Im pretty sure Iv heard that the Moisture control soil is quality.

Please respond if you know anything about any of this, I really need answers fast, because if the White Widow starts to bud, its over. Thanks guys, and I apologize for any grammer, or spelling mistakes as I am writing this really fast because its really urgent that I get these answers​

Yea I'm Here But I'm No Expert You Might Wanna Change Your Title!! It's My Experience That People Don't Like To Answer Questions That Has A Title Talking About Experts Only And A Lot Of Good Growers That Probably Could Answer Your Questions Probably Don't Consider Themselves Experts!

But Rock On And Smoke Weed Every Day!

cloning is an indoor technique. The cuttings need to have a very well controlled environment which makes outdoors pragmatic. You can use miracle gro for your clones, I did. Good luck with the other 6million questions!

Thanks a bunch guys, Doobs thanx for link, only got to skim threw it because im headin out for the night, but im sure ill be able to use it tomorow when I cut clone. Also I dont believe I can grow the clone inside, because im a youngster and I still live with my mom. If you look at my gallery, you can see where my other plants are, you think if I just put it in a shady spot, it would be enough warmth to promote root growth? becuase its hot right now, and direct sunlight would burn them for sure, but do you think that shade would be enough? I really would like these questions answered before I start tomorow, or I will probably lose my only chance of replenishing my White Widow garden. Thanks silk, doobs, and k-town for the help so far. Someday in life maybe ill be able to help ya out : )

Ok get some rooting hormone Homedepot its powder. A razor blade bowl of water and either a rockwool cube or a pot with some moisture control miracle grow. You will have to be able to have it somewhere inside as its going to need 24 hours of florscent light and a humidity dome. If you cant keep iyt inside under 24 hour light forget it then.If you can your all good.

GrowFAQ has an entire section on cloning. Lots of different ways to do it (cloning) and pics to help you along the way. It's at the top of this page upper left hand corner.

You better not try any of this. You will just die when you find out you can't turn off the sun to force flowering.
