How to clone and get roots like this?

When I was a kid, my mom used to take cuttings from a Spider plant, put them in a glass of water, put them in the window sill, and in a couple weeks they would root. She didn't change the water, no rooting hormone, no humidity dome. It was a different species of plant, but I feel like the same can be done with cannabis. I haven't tried it yet though. Lol... :bigjoint:
It does work! Cannabis loves to clone. The plant literally is built to make new roots. I do not use hormones because if I truly say organic. Can’t start with rooting hormone.
Personally I have come to really like azos by Xtreme. Beneficial bacteria which pulls N out of the air! Induces rooting fast or soak plugs in before cloning.

I'll have to try it.

I've tried most cloning methods.
Most successful after learning DJM method. Be sure to look at page 3.

Given the option I'd pick the 2 bigger ones, they've got 2+ weeks growth right of the bat.

I know that's not ideal if you need 20+ clones, I only work with 4 so the bigger ones suit me.
I'd just built the cloner and was putting it to the test...

Yeah, I sometimes use a dome, but then you have to remember to air it. If it's too cold they don't root. I once waited for over a month before realizing it's cold, moved them to a warmer place and had roots in a few days. This time I took cuttings on fourth week of flower. Didn't use a dome and 5/7 rooted in three weeks. I only needed two cuts so didn't wait for the rest.
There’s your problem I’m my experience cloning becomes much more difficult once the plant is in flower especially that far into flower!! Also some strains clone much easier than others

Buy a heat matt, l did, rooting better, still lose more than l wish to. Ill still cut 40 or so to get ten strong ones. Sometimes better somtimes worse. Coconut water works good, roots faster. Aloe vera can help too. If powder #2 works good 3 is too strong 1 too weak.

A bit of dirt from a healthy plant in water will increase chances. Roots fastest so far.
