Will it EVER go back into Veg ?

I've got a clone from a favorite plant, that's just been sitting there under the light for 3+ months.

Green - as if it was alive - but not sending out shoots.

I'm thinking MAYBE, it is as it looks - a healthy rooted leaf, but no internodes.

Anyway, I guess I have my answer.

Hate to kill it but will move her to the side.

Have you ever had a plant like this that "woke up" after a 3 month sleep as "just a leaf" - and started growing stems with internodes ?

It should have a deeper container so roots can take off.

Clones do better if you put 2 internodes in the grow medium. Not sure if yours will make it.

There's a second smaller leaf lower down, so there was a growing tip in there somewhere.

Will transplant her and wash off whatever is left of the growing tip or tips.

Thanks for the replies !

It’s dead
Try more clones in a seeding mix

Check the roots are healthy, it should be doing something by now, even if that thing is dying.

one thing to avoid in the future, don't leave a big gap like that in the top of the pot - it can mean damp, stagnant air around the stem of the plant which can cause rot or fungus.


Always fill the pot with growing medium up to half an inch or so from the top.

Put her into a 2 gallon pot this morning.

Roots were white.

Back under the 250 watt metal halide she goes !
