Hey, thanks a lot.
Any ideas on how much longer i'm gonna have to wait for this one?
Give it two weeks?
How nice would it be to have some fresh chronic on christmas day haha
Well....you could wait until you sex the plants, I wouldn't, let me explain. I took 40 clones that way once, it took me about 3 months just to get them ready to go to flowering, I would have been better off to start over with seeds as far as the amount of time it took. It also took a generation or 2 to get all of the abnormalaties out of the strain.
You actually have a couple of choices to make at this point. Folks that have done this for a lot longer than I have will tell you to take 2 clones from each plant and root them. Once they have roots flower the clones, keep the originals and develope them as mother plants by cutting the growing tips back and leaving them in Vegetative light. This is the correct way to do it.
The other choice is one I have done many times, ol DirtBagBrian did it this way for 5 years, never ran out of weed. Take 2 clones from each plant, mark them as to which plant you took them from and be sure to label them individually, trust me on that one, then go ahead and put the originals in flowering light. 2 to 4 weeks later you will know the sex of all of your plants, get rid of all the males, save a few of your clones for mothers, or take two clones from each of the female plants and send them on.
The second way is actually what I did with most of the strains I am running now, it takes about a month longer this way to get to perpetual harvest, you will have smoke able bud about 4 weeks sooner.
Mr.HowardMarksJournal chronicles the proper way.
