First time Cloning
Schlurpypurpeystarted grow question a month ago
When do I cut away the Single Leaf initial growth from when the cutting finally rooted and began new vegetative growth. Or do you let it just hang around ?

It will drop off naturally when it ready. You can prune it earlier but if the plant is that small I would not.
The leaves are helping it build up and grow.
The other situation for early pruning would be if the plant is so bushy its restricting airflow and becomes a vector for disease. I don't see this with you plant at all.
Good Luck!

It will fall off naturally if it looks like it’s gonna die if just take it off so plant doesn’t have any energy wasted on it but it will just shrivel up and or fall when it’s ready just personal preference

Hello, actually you can cut it off if you notice that new, good ones are growing back. I think they will die anyway and the plant will just try to put energy into repairing itself. It would be better to put that energy into new ones.

Any advice for cloning? Haven’t had luck on the previous attempts.I’ve attempted a cutting… well the topping from my Violator Kush grow. I have never had any luck with cloning despite my research, any advice would be awesome. Cut the main and stripped it, dipped in promix stim root, planted in FF happy frog, watered and domed. 76F 48% in tent.Setup. Clones

Is doming clones a must?I just topped 2 plants and for shits and giggles decided to try cloning the toppings. I removed the bottom leaves peeling down to expose the flesh and dipped in pro-mix root stim, they are now in my veg tent that’s at 82F and 50% humidity. I just didnt have ziplocs to dome themSetup.

Cloning AK420 OutdoorSo.... never cloned a plant (first three plants in soil, germinated from seed) and would like to try and clone this baby. Are there good video guides to cloning outdoor plants in vegetative state? Ordered Ed Rosenthal's mammoth book, but it'll likely arrive after flowering...3 years ago

problems with clones!Friends, tell me what's wrong with the plant! I don't understand it's under-feeding or over-feeding! At first I thought it was a cal-mag deficiency, then I saw a purple stem and thought it was a phosphorus deficiency! Now I don't know what it is anymore! at the very beginning itLeaves.
