Not in water: DSC08256.jpgDSC08257.jpgDSC08260.jpgDSC08261.jpgDSC08262.jpgDSC08263.jpg

Vacuum Sealed: DSC08252.jpg

Observation: The ones in water continue to look worse. Green is leaving the leaves, stems. Turning purpleish. No mold on the remaining 2 jars. However the jars with only my breath exhaled into it every 2-4 days and no water, are still green. They dont look as firm as when they where cut originially. They look more limp.

the ultimate test will be wich ones actually root when all said and done
Yea Im nervous. If this works at 60 days Im sure people can further refine it. Could be huge for people with limits on plants to just store their clones until next grow.

The ones in water have degraded while the ones with no water look a little tired but I would say they rank as Good.

Update. So we are at a month and one week. ALL clones that where in the jars with half inch water developed mold. They are now removed. We only have jars with no water. So at each opening about every 3 days, I blow my breath into the jars after I open them.

Observation: I dont really see much change from last week. I would say no color change. No mold. Just droopy and not firm and crisp anymore. Im tempted to plant a couple to see if it would root at this stage. 1.25 months but, I rather wait 60 days.

i say wait, all or nothing right, the experiment is 60 days. but thats up to you, if it dosent ruin your experiment then no harm in trying.

you going to want at least 2-3 viable plants to try and clone after 60 days, just having 1-2 may greatly reduce your chances of getting one to take root

+ rep, subbed

I'm full of anticipation for this one.

If you can, is it possible to keep one cut going longer than 60 days? I will be full of questions of how much longer this could have gone if the 60 days cutting roots...maybe a 90 day cutting?

Cheers
