I was thinking about gradually knocking down the lighting period 2 hours at a time in 2 week intervals until i hit 12/12 then go til ready, would this be okay?
1-24/7 lights
2-18 on 6 off
3-16 on 8 off
4-14 on 10 off
5-12 on 12 off

I just took 1 clone off each plant and labeled them. I put them in seperate little organic peat pots each plant dipped about 1/2 inch in rooting stim , with those in a big bowl with Saran wrap on top. I was wanting to know if it's okay to keep them in with my others, there on an 18/6 light cycle,will the 6 off do any damage? And another question how big of a cutting do you need to take a clone? I took the top 2 nodes and trimmed the fan leaves.When should I expect to get some roots?Thanks

Here's my girl at day 39, I've taken about 8 cuttings, that should almost be rooted by now. I need some Help on the droopy Shishka Berry ,It doesn't seem to be taking water in.I stopped watering it for a few days to see if it would help but it was only getting worse, I removed it this morning from the previous container and noticed that the root ball was really hard I clean off the roots with a spray bottle with luke warm water and replanted it in a 60/40 Soil/vermiculite mix,I also trimmed off the yellow leaves. Will this plant get better or is it gone?
Thanks

Can I tie down the Main branches a bit to let light in the middle instead of trimming leaves? I've removed about 6 leaves in the last few weeks to let light in.
