Man I should totally dig around and send you some of the seeds that I've got stashed away of really good genetics from out here in the Pacific Northwest.
And easiest fastest and bestest cloning project I ever did involved a shot glass a little bit of water and a small amount of Saran wrap.
Just put a little bit of water that will cover the end of the tip. Put Saran wrap over the top of the shot glass and slide in your cutting. For some reason when you put it in front of the window and you will watch during the day some of the evaporation and condensation cycle going on inside the glass... After that it's only like 3 days and all of a sudden you can watch Roots shootout.
Honestly after you get a couple more plans to help with mothering and cloning... Start doing wild bad scientists projects and you'll realize that it is extremely hard to kill these things.
I had an entire juice container full of cuttings that I forgot... Like 300 rooted plants had locked themselves so hard together it was so crazy....
Awesome life and congratulations
Thank you for the kind words and advice @ganjafarmer!
I would be honored to grow some of the genetics that you have, and honored that you feel confident with my ability to grow them! I'm actually interested in obtaining genetics because I don't have a lot of seeds right now, so if you're interested in doing some business with Hive or something we could chat on discord to work it out :)
The shot glass method sounds really good, and you did it without a rooting hormone? I'm planning to just reuse these solo cups. I cut bottoms off other cups and used them like inserts with a drilled hole. I feel like it's a pretty nice way to clone, I just don't have shot glasses because I'm allergic to alcohol.. 😄
Oh yeah, I'm planning all kinds of experiments and would love to hear your advice along the way because you have a lot of experience and really good ideas with cannabis. I would love to vicariously put your knowledge to use wherever I can, like the idea of not trimming foliage as much like you say, I find that is really sound advice because the leaves hold the nutrients.
So I'm trying to keep these bushy this time around with minimal foliage trimming, instead of heavy trimming like I did last time.
Wow that is crazy lol 🤓
Yeah hit me up on discord. I've got a huge pile of different seeds. And I think I still have some of the Nigerian nightmare seeds that a Nigerian prince friend of mine hooked me up here back before we were called hive.
And there is so many plain glass shot glasses that you can go find a free one by asking any one of your alcohol drinking friends...
And by the way that's all it was just a piece of Saran wrap a shot glass water and a cutting. In fact when I used extremely high quality clonex cloning gel it took 7 to 10 days. While when just using water method it was 3 days.
I've never heard of that approach.. it's worth investigating
Mad scientist experiments gone well.... Yep. Why not try it and see what had happened.
