Happy to receive any & all advice... My first "proper" attempt at cloning. I clipped 4 clones in the hope of getting 3 survivors. The mother is at 6 weeks in to Veg, looking very healthy with a great growth rate. Used Clonex rooting gel, Jiffy pucks, propagator, heat mat @ 25 degrees / 92% RH, with a 60cm full spectrum aquarium LED at a height to give me 250PPFD at the canopy. 🙏 Foliar spray for first 5 days: 4ml Canna Start / 8ml Canna Rhizo = 1lt. Foliar spray from day 5: 2ml Canna A&B / 8ml Canna Rhizo / .5ml Canna CalMag = 1lt. Now on day 6, I've opened the vents. Soon I'll start removing the lid for an hour or so... Is the discolouring of the leaves normal, or a sign of something else? 😯

Week 2 passed, no roots, but showing signs of nute burn. I've taken another 4 cuttings & this time used coco in pots & just dechlorinated tap water. 🕰️🤞 Trial & error... 🙏

At the start of week 5: I've potted-on & moved to my "veg" tent. The M/H SP3000 is @ 60% for the mother-plant, but she's at a distance of 45cm & the clones are approx 100cm. They are showing good growth & loving the vapour outlet being very close to them, I may need to relocate it very soon though!?! 😟

Starting week 8: Signs of a deficiency are present, not sure what it is though. I've been told it's a pH fluctuation & a also "K" issue. I've flushed them with pH 5.8... Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Appear to be getting the defeciancy under control, I think it was a pH fluctuation. Overall, the plants look healthy, including the Motherplant tent.

Starting week 22. Week 11 of flower: Very frosty, bit larfy & foxtailing. Same as the mother & all 6 clones, must be genetic!?! 😏 Still, she'll be great for topicals & hash.

Starting week 23. Week 12 of flower. Most trichomes are turning cloudy, some are amber already & some are purple. Overall, she looks frosty but tonnes of fox-tailing (just like mother), still good for topicals!
