You can take it for a clone

You certainly can try to clone it but I think you should make sure your plant is healthy first, and it does not appear to be.

Did you plant the plastic pot it came in into your bigger pot? Also, can you take a pic of the whole plant?

Its the right ph and watered only when dry.
250w cfl

Planted with net pot. Becouse the roots where long and impossible to get out of pot without damagong roots. Clone came from hydro

Ah, that makes more sense. I thought it was a plastic planter. And the plant going from hydro to soil explains the weird growth to some extent. What soil are you using?

Personally I would cut anything until she perks up a bit. Also, do you have a stronger light for flowering or are you trying to use that CFL all the way through?

Im using a nutrient poor soil with god draining quality. 250cfl is for starting only switching over to a 400w hps at later stage.

I have not yet given any nutrients... as i tought to wait a few more days.. is that ok? Or should i give a little maby 25% of reccomended dosage? Since the soil im using is without any extra nutrients.

Thanks for quick answers to all

yep cut it off, try clone it for your next grow.

If your medium has little to no nutrient content like promix I believe you would want to feed her with a light dose. Hopefully some others chime in though because I always plant directly into "hot" soil or potting mix specifically so I don't have to feed early on.

Cloning, take clone, mist once with water, and never water or mist again until rooted, leave in dark for the first 12 hours after cloning, then low filtered light (kitchen?) in a humid warm low light spot, never water or mist again until rooted.

cloning success usually comes down to how firm/old the stem of the clone from the mother plant is. firmer the better, soft young growth no good for cloning..

What do you think? Is she perking up?

I cut all the low growth.
But it looks like you're going to be running into it being root bound soon and it'll start to have problems.
Do yourself a favor,
Blains farm website, order a bag of Fox farm Ocean Forest for 7 bucks.. And replant into a one gallon, veg for another 4 weeks, than use the rest of your soul and replant into a 3 gallon. The nutrients fro. That soil will get you through first month of bloom. It looks thick and healthy though. If you clip that shit off it won't hurt it. I prune no more than 30 percent at a time and they always bounce back after a week

Thanks for great responses everyone.

I finally got my MH 400watt today and plan on changing light.

My question is.
Should i altso replant at the same time or just one at a time.. so i dont stress her more? There are no visible roots in the holes under the pot. Should i wait til i see that?

Again pardon my english
