Hey dude on the cloning part its easy as hell, lol. I took some clippins from my alaskan thuderfuck plants from my greenhouse right before they went into flower and didnt cut them at a 45 degree angle and just stuck under one 100watt cfl in dixie cups with about 1/2 inch of water and everyone survived and established roots
It took a little longer than using cloning gel and sticking them in soil pellets or rockwool
I sprayed them with water 2 times a day
and thats it lol
i was just experimenting and dam success...but next time im going to cut them right and use soil pellets with root gel and see how long it takes.
