Monstercropping Slow Growth

I've been trying my hand at monstercropping and this is my first round. Jack Here clones grown under LED and 4 foot florescent taken from donor plant two weeks into flowering. My issue is they have rooted, but it has been a few weeks now and I see no vegetative growth. Should I continue to grow and wait it out or did I stunt them during transplant or something and trash them?

Weird, How much roots did you have when you transplanted. They don't look like they were really far enough into flower when you cut them to be truly monster cropped.

You've got a lot of leaf for those roots to grow into before they start pushing new growth.

Yeah and if you water or start feeding the roots won't really feel much need to grow. How much light are they getting?

It's normal for some really slow growth when the clones are trying to reveg. these don't appear to be too far into flower when they were cut tho.

Forgot to mention, I actually picked the little buds off of the top, but left the tiny buds with the hairs on the lower branches. They were rooting in a solo CV up and they were white and vigorously growing. I said before they were clipped only two weeks into flowering. Should I have waited longer 3 weeks maybe?

Get rid of them.

The buds are where the new growth would come from.

Toss them, without the bud sites there will be no further growth.

No need to toss them. There are still growth tips on there. Just needs to get rid of anything flower related.

Copy

So for future knowledge, take clones a little later and don't clip the bud flower growth?

Take clones out to 3 weeks and get rid of any flowering material. Leave growth tips otherwise there was no point in taking them. Remove ONLY flowering material, not growth tips below lol.

That's what I didn't do, when I clipped them I didn't remove any flowering material. Thanks for the information.

Think of it like this. You're trying to grow roots, not flowers. Anything not pushing for roots is only gonna hurt you. That's why folks new to cloning cut tips off the leaves. Makes it a little easier for them.
