DST's Vertical Step Grow - Headband and Cali Orange

I've noticed the roots of my clones grow to the side that is next to the 400w transformer. Some warmth is needed (90 max), but too much will burn the young roots.

Aye Aye Jock, How's trick's! cant wait to get a look at all the action over the past few, Im sure there's alot to see in 'Da Club'.
They should make a " Hall of Fame " For the veteran's that have been around a while. The general help, advice and frienship is second to none, folk's like yourself, Mr. West, D,GnT, ect.. ect....

Peace bro

Hey peeps, I totally agree, normally my clone box sits atop of a radiator but what with it being summer all the heat comes from the top so is not really helping, makes it quite a dry humidity in the box. I have been trying to leave water, spray etc.

Peace to you too Cinders lad.

Ive found i have better results if the heat comes from the top wen doing clones, them heated props jus dry everything dry. I have 100% success when i do my clones under my 250w veg hps. I also like to take my clones with a good couple or three nodes making the cut on the node at 45° with a couple of grooves to stop airlock. Also if i presoak my jiffys with a mild feed.

What up d?, still the man i see.

Dog kush and a dollop of that dirty black sludge for the win!!!!!!!

Does it not rain in So Africa hehe

Morning D Man what happenin! Trying to get caught up a bit, take a couple of days off from here and there's like 10 threads I need to read lol. Great shots of the sculpters, wow is that even a word, I liked that a lot. Been missing some culture as of late need to take a road trip somewhere : !).

Hey do you have more than one DOG pheno? Just asking as I was looking at your girl and I thought you had said you had the same one as me. I flipped one of mine a couple of days ago and 4 more are all ready to go in with the run next weekend.

Lemon Qleaner is the flavor of the morgen in the Cave,,,this cut beat out subs Vortex for potency. Seems to be what I reach for lately when I not smoking my sour kush doggy DOG lol. Later bro !

Hey ghb, thanks for stopping by, you still making that trip to Amsterdam at some point?

HC, well I think my wife just thinks it is constantly sunny in S-Africa, and forgets they also have a winter, especially in Cape Town. The thing that get her is that our summers are so gash. And no, I am only running 1 DOG pheno at the moment. It has the stretch like the OG Kush, fat buds like the OG and Headband, and a very diesel smell with deeper earthy tones to the smoke as well as the fuel from the diesel. Rather scrumptious really.

Peace, DST

Ive got a foot n half small floro strip light, plastic and i sit the prop on top. But i know what you mean by it getting all dry in there when the temp's around it go up. It seem's to work out allright for me, but sometimes spry with Formulex every couple day's.

I'll catch you through the week mate, Get you a snap of the bairn bro.

yah, mini Cinders, send me it by email. The wife said congrats btw!!!

Afternoon m8. I'm going to be taking clones for the first time ever. Do I just cut them, dip them in the purple gel stuff(clonex I think) and stick them in a root riot cube. Any tips to improve my sucess rate

After the cut, scrape off the top layer of the stem and let them soak in water for at least 20 minutes before dipping in the rooting gel.

it's really that simple.....

some people snip the ends of the fans leaves to concentrate growth into the root, this is optional.

One thing i allway's queationed was where the best place to cut was. I was shown years ago to take a branch that's starting ti get interchanging ( zig-zag ) nodes, and cut the 45 through the node's. And i get good result's this way, but would'nt be the first time ive snipped in- between nodes.
Like D said its really simple. Most people usually take twice as many clone's than they need, thinking about success rate and end up finding the nearly all take.

I'm more than confident you'll get them going bill. All the best man.

Heres a guide to successful cloning.

Thanks for the tips guys, going to be trying it tonight

I killed a male today if anyone is interested. IT amazes me at how vigorous some males can be. This Cheese Surprise clone was only starting to show signs a couple of days ago. I looked in today and full on sausage factory. It was a stretchy fucker though so got the malky big time. I kept it's younger brother who is a stout little chap. May be get him out to stud on something if his structure turns out well. Which reminds me again, must clone the bloody Chillberry before I am having to clone a bud!

Peace and chicken mayo toasties!!

DST

yes, im always interested when a male gets killed. I didnt have the balls to kill mine..lol.. they got transplanted in the woods.. 2 weeks later the vigourous bastards are still alive and greener than ever.. with NO tlc at all. they are on a very wet loose slope bearly planted fully in with some moldy wet piles of decomposing stinky grass feeding them.....................good luck with your chillberry cloning.. peace and headless chicken toasties..out
