Clones from first grow diary. Obviously I’ve never cloned lol. Used powder root grow. Spraying plain water several times a day. Day 0- cuttings Day 1 still perky and green- good sign Day 2 no change Day 3 no change above soil; can’t tell what’s going on with rooting Day 4 took 2 more clones, totaling 4. No change. Day 5 took 1 more clone Day 6 trimmed leaves a bit more so they can put more energy to rooting; some leaf centers yellowing Day 7 placed clear solo inside colored solo to minimize light to root Conclusion: i need patience!

How many days before I should definitely see clone root growth in a clear solo cup with soil/soilless? I use powdered rooting hormone & fox farm ocean & frog soil with added peat moss, vermiculite, and perlite.
Solved
Plant. Twisted

Hey there so like others said cloning into the cubes goes quick and easy the 7-10 approximately. My clone that I put straight in foxfarm soil took by far the longest and struggled the most. I think it was at least 2 weeks before I saw 1 root on side of the cup. You can also use natural honey or aloe vera in your water, they have natural rooting hormones and can really help out, just mix either or both into the water. (Aloe plant is best). And yes keep the leaves moist, but they also need air. Best of luck

Timer crapped out and guess my ladies grew balls. Some tight buds. Some airy buds. All full of, I’m guessing, seeds.
