Clones termination. Mom's flowering.
Yep, this is an example of how it should not be done. The clones survived two cases of tip rot and a transplant after cleaning the tips.
They finally developed some roots, but still didn’t make it. I kept only one, but I need two. So… the mom is about to start flowering after stretching, and I cut eight branches again to make a second clone. After some bending and tying, the mom returned to the flower room. If your light has a flower mode, now is the time to turn it on. The fast stretch period is over, so add some red light. It helps with yield.
This time we’re going to do it right, using the experience from the first attempt at cloning.
Check the clones 2–5 times a day. Keep the propagator lid closed at all times, and don’t let water touch the cloning medium. Also, the cubes shouldn’t be soaking wet, just moist. This balance between water content and airflow is crucial for future roots.
