are you changing the water, try some water mixed with hydrogen/peroxide at 1/6 cup per gallon, will give it some oxygen ;-), could give it a lil boost in oxygen intake and produce roots a lil faster, just a suggestion.

there are bud sights everywhere! woo hoo. looks like the molasses is doing great for her. I got tired of waiting on the clone so i just stuck it in the AG, if I kill it, oh well. not really going to stress about it. here are some pics of some hairs.

having oxygen go inside your stem is a very bad idea. it could easily cause an air bubble restricting lots of nutrients reaching to many areas of the plant. if you wana get into cloning i would recommend "Root Hormone" it works great! just dip the clone tip in for 2 seconds and plant :) $2 dollars a bottle where i live. but anyway congrats on ur girl. she looks awsome! its so nice too see flowers pop up everywhere lol great feeling of accomplishment

i had it sitting in a solution of liquid root hormone and water for like a week. but i want a proper set up before i actually get into cloning, like a separate space for vegging and cloning and then one for flower. so it looks like i might get another AG.lol

lol yea. thats a good approach. probly a better way. as for the clone im not sure. the stuff i have requires a dip each plant. maybe soaking it that long killed it. it does need air just cant force it in lol

yea!, better to wait, because you should reveg clones when you clip them. btw did you just keep it in with flower or did you give it veg lighting. just wonderin. that would b tight as hell if you got another ag, after all of your practice you will soon b pro. clone might not root if you keep it in flower

as long as its green it is absorbing something, clones are tender and don't need much light, but i think they have to be revegged to get roots. it will take a very long time to grow roots while flowering and by the time it did, it might not have enough stored energy in it to make it though. any kind of low watt cfl (in the 20s) would vegg it back out, but when you do see roots, it will need to b slowly weened into brighter light. if you have some plug in light sockets available you could do a little clone box like this one i made to try to reveg a shrub tree i kicked over a lil while ago on accident. i think it is a pretty good easy idea, please tell me what you think. i figured it might help you to save your clone

i dont have any computer fans. i'm using an aquarium air pump for intake. probably no where near enough, but i will open the box during daylight. i bought the air pump to do an

thats pretty creative.lol what i am hoping is that i can keep the clone alive until i harvest ginormica then i will put it back into veg.

i went in to wake her up this morning and the smell..... wow its like an all new scent has been added to her. its hard to explain. but yummy.

SH!T!!!!! i have green algae!!!!!!!!!!!! muther effer.
ok ill calm down now..
i will very carefully take the plant and the res to the kitchen sink and gently spray off the the roots then i will scrub the M.Fing sh!t out of the res. and then i will put new nutes in the res. i accidentally left the res flap open for a few hours the other day, i guess thats what triggered it. son of a B i am so pissed.

well i got it all cleaned up. the majority of the roots are fine. but i just could not get rid of it all so chances are it will come back right? are there any additives that i can put in the res to kill it off? or at least keep it at bay?
