I take no offense wat so ever i know your trying to help. I have decided to wait till the plant is bigger. This is a test grow to see if i can growa plant start to finish in a box about 2 feet high, 2 feet wide and 3 feet long. I normally grow outdoors when i can but i guess those rules apply to indoor growing also. Lst is off until it gets to about foot or 15 inches.
yeah its all good bro - when i was limited for space i used to grow pure indica nrthnlights, i used to topp them all after fourth growing node,grow to 10inches and then throw a wire mesh across the canopy, vegg another week then flower,im not sure about other strains but low ryder & NL work well in this case, its also worth bearing in mind that clones usually grow alot more vigoursly than seedlings, i just think undermatture seedlings are pointless clones are a whole differnt thing i no ppl who have flowered 5 inch clones in tiny lill potts pulling about a quart of dried nuggs from each plant, again playing around with diff methods is fun and u get first hand results =)

you could do both, take the top you cut off and use that for your clone
then you could flower the topped plant, and you'll get a shorter, bushier plant to boot

hey just wondering what if i do what you say top then flower the plant, should i wait or flower right after i top? and can i keep my clone in the same box if it fits?

you could double up in your box
my newb experience with clones is they don't like much light for a while
so a light for a clone could be quite low, say a 13w cfl
but if you want to double up, you can take the flowering plant out and put in a dark box of some kind

I understand most of what you mean but in my situation i have a 26 watt cfl which is growing my plant quite well. But what if i take the clone and plant it like next to the mother in a different cup would that be alright? i can also reduce the light it gets by putting it father away from the bulb.

Also i have another question which doesnt relate to this thread.

If i switch the light from 24/0 to 18/6 will the soil dry out slower? To me i think yes i just want to get some extra opinions in there.

thanks

sounds a lot like my pc grow that i had to stop, the light was ok(27w cfl), but the small pots killed me
but if you can move the clone to less light, that would be fine, i saw that even a 27w cfl is too much light for a clone if it's too close
on the 24/0 to 18/6 drying slower, that is true to some extent, it's less heat, but that a pretty small change, may not be a big difference

alright man thanks will work on keeping my soil wet. Even if it does dry out i water every day. my roots suck the water up so damn fast haha i can't imagine a 5 foot plant....or a 12 foot plant! hahah anyway thanks again.
