DudeGrowsWeedstarted grow question 6 years ago
I'm going to take cuttings for clones soon. If you check the pics you should see that the taller of the 2 plants has a "Y" where the main stem split. I'm thinking cutting at the bottom of the Y would give me a good cutting/clone. Any thoughts or advice welcome... Thanks!

Hey dude, sure you wouldn’t have a problem cloning but I think under the V may be a bit too big... as you need to cut 45• at the next branch below the V. Could work, you would be better using that V as 2 clones and cutting just above the V lots of Hormones already present in that section due to the prior topping! Good luck✌️🏻
ShaggyGroweranswered grow question 6 years ago
Yes you could cut the Y out and have a two-stemmed clone. I'd recommend taking some of the big fan leaves off the clone (lower ones) as the clone will have no roots and will transpire what liquid it has in it very quickly through big leaves. Clones don't need a lot of leaf area while they're trying to create roots, so I chop off all the big fan leaves when taking a clone and prune the lower side shoots as well, leaving a umbrella-looking plant. Once it has roots, I can re-pot it lower down covering some of the long-ish stem. Happy Cloning!

Too big for a clone bro. It might dehydrate quickly...

I think that the clone would struggle and ultimately fail to keep all that foliage alive with no root system.
Better to take several smaller clones out of it, at least in my opinion.

Some guidance for ScrOG please@22cm & preflowering for about 4-5 days. Haven't noticed any stretching (~2-3cm)
When do I start with the ScrOG and at what height should one set the net ?
Also curious about defoliation: Right now, I keep tucking the fan leaves under the smaller ones.

Defoliation (no horizontal room in my tent and a lot of vertical room)This may seem like a dumb question but is cutting these small lower branches off going to promote vertical growth in my plants? I will be doing it later on anyways to eliminate larf but would it be more beneficial now or is it worth to keep to take in light energy for now

Serious problem with small buds.This is my diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/198497-white-critical-express-super-silver-haze-grow-journal-by-italy-grower
the pistils are turning orange and the buds are small, maybe not enough room? Too much PK? Is it really a serious problem? What can I do? Some advice?

Defoliation AutoflowerHey fellow growers,
How should I approach defoliation with autoflowers during flowering? I'm thinking of removing lower leaves, especially near the soil. I prefer to be cautious to avoid mistakes. Reddit wasn't helpful as it seemed too critical. I hope for better insights here.

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!8 months ago
