How long or big should mothers be before cloaning begins? The last time I had mothers I think I cut too soon even though they grew into healthy mothers. Also should vid.B be on her diet? if so, how often? or is Fox Farm big grow 6-4-4 good enogh? I am going to do two mothers in 15 gallon pots. The ?'s are concern for best health!! P.S. To all expert growers. Please be pationt with us rookies. We are only trying to be the best we can with your expertese.THANKS CCN
A. A 15 gal. container is 3 x too big, unless your outside. B. Usually you want to wait until the plant has AT LEAST 5 nodes, make the cut between the 2nd & 3rd node. C. Cloning can be complex for beginners. You should read a how-to on cloning.
here is a link to a good book on taking cuttings. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1861082940/103-8522085-2342238?v=glance&n=283155&s=books&v=glance
