New Cloning Method. Only takes 3 to 5 day.

[zero.kewl]

I wanted to clean up my post alittle could someone delete the other plz...
All my water clone attemps have been covered in pre-root rot slime. No way I'm tossing all them out so....

Clean her up with an h202 scrub and were off...

I couldnt hold and cut at the same time and my wifes not here so cut it sumthing like this to look like this..

Great now we need are roots.. For right now stick with these roots untill i can test if other roots work as well... The nubs

becariful not to pull to hard or..

lol we can still use her tho.. try to make the root as long as the plant. little shorter is fine tho..

now take a knife and lightly strip the roots tip.. the part that was connected to the plant and place her like such.

tape her up good n tight. not to tight tho to were your going to rip off the root tring to get the tape off.

now place her in water making sure the end of the cutting and the root are both cover in water untill 72 hours .. at the time you can slowly watch the water level drop by not adding anymore water and check to see if the transplant took..

she shouldnt wilt at all.. infact i found she perks up a tad...Pretty much makings the old methods go bye bye heheh. well there ya go any questions??

So no cloning gel or anything is used? How long till the clone is accually healed up and ready for planting?

 

[zero.kewl]

Depends what you deff of healed up is.. the water level on my first tests have been below the stem line for 2 days the root is the only thing keepn her alive.. so i guess 3 days ..still should take it easy on her tho...

No gel or big wig setups... and its faster than any other method ive used....

Interesting. I still like my way tho. 2 inches of perlite, and about a 1/4 inch of water on the bottom, so that the perlite wicks it up into the atmosphere. No gel or anything, just stick em in and forget it. Averages a week. Don't forget to saran wrap the top of the container to keep moisture in.

I'm def gonna try this tho, seem really cool, but when you are doing doing a minimum of 20 clones, it could get a bit tedious. Wonder if can be like grafting at all, just take some roots from a plant that has very good root structuring, maybe the clone will not use any of its own genetic makeup for the roots? Hmmm....

Wont change the clone but.. im going to be hacking down a whole mother plant and using roots, leafs, clones everything.... ill post pics later.

rooted leafs over time can grow bud....

 

[przemix]

have to try it. would extra gel help? is h2o2 a must if id take a fresh cut?

 

[BurmeseDragon]

Okay, am I delusional or did I just see you tape some roots from a mother plant onto a cutting?

I don't see that graft taking hold, it might some of cannabis surprising to say the least...but highly unlikely or cutting the stem down the middle...which really opens the cutting up to infection (the number one risk of taking a cutting).

 

[zero.kewl]

i wouldnt put gel because ur not trying to grow new roots ur trying to make her heal and no fresh cuts dont need h202.

 

[zero.kewl]

Btw Tape doesnt hold to well ive moved to using thread...

very interesting

and for the nah sayers i took one of the 2 clones from my first test out. the bigger of the clones i plucked off the root i added and stuck it in a bottel with the same water level and it died. the one of the right side was plucked. so proving the root is what was keeping her alive.

has anyone else had success with this method? I will try it as soon as I can take clones and do a side by side with rooting hormone on one side and a modification of this method on the other. I do everything the same except I will put them into rock wool it should work the same. I am pretty sure medical tape that you can get in first aid kits is the same as grafting tape and could be cheaper.

 

[zero.kewl]

has to be in water... u might have better luck but it hasnt worked an any medium for me yet... she might dry up real quick... do let me know

Reveg it and the bud will grow shoots.

 

[zero.kewl]

Stick with the method nothing is cheaper or easyer than water. 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

are you sure? think of what these means no longer wasting any part of the plant.. plus leafs insted of clones man i have 1000's of them

Nice job with the root grafting.
