first time cloner any advise

my point exactly, i cant get a single one if its flowering, the plant is thinking right to do the job.

 

In Scotland our tap water is Ph7.0 I also use a large fish tank with a carbon filter so I don't have any water problems.
I also have a separate veg room & flowering room so they go strate under Mh lights.

 

My tap water here in rocky mtn high is 8.5,requires a little natural ph down and 48 hours of sitting out before it hits my soil,but well worth the effort.Got some decent ph #'s on the water there compared to here LR.

 

Yey buddy really like a dim wit I was using my tank for 5 months before I gave a thought to test the tap water, had to do a double take before I could beleave it
I still have to leave mine out too.

 

so i dont do it now will it hurt to try

 

If your plant is roughly 6months old I'm guessing you dont have a high pressure sodium light.
Also have you put your plant into the 12hrs on 12hrs off light cycle this is called the
(PHOTOPERIOD)

 

so can i clone or no what is yor advise

 

Mari-jane,the moral of the story is if you have some red pistols you are well into flower and thats the worst time to take clones for success.The latest one should wait is 1-2 weeks into flower.Your success ratio will be way down and the ones that take will be very slow to.

 

damn i really wanted to clone

 

Can you show us a picture it might help but I'm with Meangreen on this one it sounds a little too late, but theirs always the next time.

 

ya i dont have a digital camera but i have seeds from the last plant i grew outdoors one was a male and one was a female so i have a shit load of seeds the female was like about 6 foot 7 almost 7 feet so alot of seeds

 

You can always re-veg the plant once ya harvest,just be sure to leave enough vegitation as to allow the plant some photosynthesis.

 

Well sounds like you got some germinating to do then.
Next time when the plant has 6 or 7 internodel junctions you should
be good to go.

 

If I recall,Lab Rat has a picture of a plant he reveged and he got lucky as I remember very little vegitation was left on it and he was even skeptical.That would be a good way to get a mom and some female cuttings to place into flower in 5-8 weeks.

 

naw, i vote for the re-veg, that way youknow what you got, and save about a month.

 

Where ya been hiding wayfairing,havent seen ya around the grow forums in a while?

 

been workin too much, and 2nd shift. i think im getttin back into it next year though.

 

Here ya go look at this sorry looking thing turned out great clones.

 

THERE IT IS,sad.You got lucky with that on LR,so how did that Ice plant turn out?

 

Not as good as the photo that made me buy it but still good
got some White Russian on the go now its the best I've had so thats what I'm sticking with for now.
