My Clone From Leaf Experiment

TetraHyC

Heres some new pics. From 6:30 pm pac. 4/13

One went to the dust bin, two don't look so hot, one is hanging in there better than the rest for some reason.

I was thinking:-?, you know how we make clones from the lower branches, because they have the ability to root better than ones from higher on the plant. Maybe the lower leaves contain more auxin as well as the stalk.

I didn't keep track what part of the plant the donors came from.:neutral:

The opposition isn't unfounded... nobody likes to be on a need-to-know basis.

I am sure it is possible in some strains.
Other strains might be capable under laboratory-like conditions, but it is only due to the roots survival behavior. The problem is getting a healthy root system from a single dieing fan leaf...

[lol] regarding the gecko analogy, this would be more like the severed tail growing a new gecko body. [/lol]

I mentioned this type of method to my father and he says he has done it with several plants but he lets his sit on water not on dirt that way they can take as much water as they need and stay moist. im not sure if this would help any of you or not but when i get some plants i think i am going to try it in some water.

Yup, that's why we're experimenting. Doh!
Im happy that you guy's are trying this method,ya never know & it's not like it costs anything to try,if it does end up working i see the method being highly usefull,it would save one hell of a lot of time if you had a single high yeilding plant that you needed to reveg in order to take clones from it.

post a link to it, or pm me the link..... it sounds like your onto a new discovery!!!! and its definitely obvious that its the rooting hormone because you have other plants that are in the same flowering period as miss moose too... aka a controlled experiment/test. "ITS ALIVE" LOL:mrgreen:

edit- ohh nm about the PM, "the related thread" your talking about the one FDD started which i am subscribed.
