even here in GD blog the same statement

But some web content introduce the posibility to achieve a great yield from auto clone.
link will be add.
The idea come after i chose to try rooting some pruned stem instead throw them in the leaf bin, and i have to says that they are looking good.

But is it due to specifique genetique caracter from the mother plant. That what we will looking for.
For this chalenge we will use the mother plant from the below diary as reference.
https://growdiaries.com/diaries/219371-fastberry-auto-blackberry-auto-grow-journal-by-godaxe
They will get the same GREENLEAF NUTRIENTS, in the same ratio, at a ppm level according to their growing stage.
we will have to keep in mind that some growing condition arent the same:
the 2 mother plan are growing outside in a DWC setup, whitout any specific training.
our chalenger will grow in coco/peat/perlite medium under the AGLEX M1000
they will also share the 5x5 tent with 8 glueberry clone in a kind of SoG
Feel free to comment, or making sugest.

THE MEDIUM
40% coco coir,
40% peat moss,
20% perlite,
the medium have been pre humidified with a PH 5.8 solution at 300ppm of MEGACROP and SWEET CANDY, from GREENLEAF NUTRIENTS, at a ratio of 5 for 1.
THE BLACBERRY CUT
The 4 cut came from the same Blacberry plant at D7 from flowering. Their was the 1st sub nod set from the 1st bottom nod branch (2 from each side). They didnt show any flowering sign.
THE FASTBERRY CUT
The fastberry plant show asymetric grow since seedling, only one of the 2 sprout on each nod is growing, in a alternative patern .(did the clone wiil grows the sames way) so we only have 2 cut, 1 is the ungrowing branch from the 1st nod, the second is the 1st growing subnode of the 1st node growing branch. Don'tknow if its clear, let me know.
THE CLONE
As usually they have been cut with sterile scissor at 45°, scissor have been clean with 90% alcool between the plants.
the rooting nod have been litly scratch with the scissor before be diped in CYCLONE ROOTING GEL. set in 5oz plastic cup filled whit the grow medium than soaked with 90 ml of solution made of 1,5ml/L of CYCLONE ROOTING GEL and disitilled water. Caped with a litly srayed, no vent, clear plastic cup, set in the tent at night.
week 1
The clone recieved 180 ppfd at top of humidity dome witch is almost foggy. ( can t tell what is the exact ppfd under the dome) The humidity dome have been removed few second and set back once a day to ensure aire exchange.
