58 clones of Chronic

thats what i need,...

i have 10 regular chronic seeds and 6 fem germing...
have them ina 6 foot hexagonal tent on a shelf about 3 foot hight and the light hanging between them.

i need to get from this to 58-60 ROOTED clones ready to transplant onto a much larger vertical system with 1 1k hps lights.

anyone know the best way to go from seed to the best pheno mother and then to 60 clones... maybe more if you count the ones that wont make it

i have never used this many clones before and its a daunting task... do i take clones from all the plants before they flower or wait till afterwards and then re veg the best phono after harvest?

any advice to do with large amounts of clones will me greatly apreciated ty all.

Would be best to find out which ones are your females first fella coz if you take cuttings from flowering plants it will take more time to change them back to veg and back to flower again, plus the quality of the smoke is reduced.

yeah i just though i could save some space..

yeah i think im going to take 2 clones from all 18 just before flower...

in 8 weeks of growth how many clones could be taken from a mother or possibly 2 mothers
i might have to take clones from 2 phenos instead of one.if i cant get 60 from 2 mothers.would have been nice to have all the same though.

You could easily have 100 clones from 8 weeks of vegetation per plant.

IMHO, I would take clones from your seedlings as soon as you can and flower the seedlings for sexing, this is risky but by the time your seedlings show their sex your new clones will be rooted and you can cull the males. You need a 100% success rate for cloning for this to work.

In 2-3 weeks of vegging, the clones should be large enough to get the clones you need depending on your % of males.

You'll probably be close to harvesting your seedlings by the time the clones of your clones are rooted and ready to flower. You will also have a good show of the pheno you're looking for since they will be in their 4th or 5th week of flowering by the time you take cuttings from your new hosts for the first time.

It's going to take 2 months to have 60 plants ready to flower from 10 seedlings any way you look at it so you might as well have something to smoke while you wait.

well i could take 2 clones instead of one right .. then i have a backup if one doesnt root.
i shouldnt be doing all this for the first time round .. but i like to dive in at the deep end.. ive got nothing better to do this year.

so ill take 2 cutting from each seedling.. then flower the seedlings...
after a couple of weeks i can kill the males and any bad phenos a bit later.

and when the first round if almost finished flowering ill be putting the clones from the clones into the large vert room..

im going to have my hand full witht his one i guess.

It's always a hand full.
