how do i clone an already flowering plant almost finished, is it possible, what should i use
you cant clone a a plant that is almost finished.

It will not grow because it is already at the end of its lifecycle.

You want to clone in Veg for the best possible results or in the first week or two of flowering, and then revert back to 18/6 or 24/0.

My three babies that I planted a few days ago have come up through the soil and are about 1" tall. I know it's early for nutes but when the time comes I would like to be prepared. What kind and how much? I know to feed them about every 3rd to 4th watering. Just don't know what to get. Thanks in advance

It depends what kind of bugs you have. Common bugs around here on plants are spider mites. They are small ruthless cocksuckers that will suck the sap from your leaves from the underneath and slowly kill the leaves causing the plant to become weak and possibly die.

Are the bugs small black specks on the underside of the leaves?

well i found two different kind of bugs
and you are right, on the bottom of my plant, there are millions of like eggs that are attatched to a bunch of leafs, but only on the bottom side
and on the top part, i found a bug crawling around and it looked sort of like a large black ant.

the other one i found was a really small, moth like tannish bug.
i just want to get rid of them though
i dont want them on my buds haha

a quick and easy solution for mites is tobacco water. Look it up im not writing you (and everyone else thats asks) a whole recipe and method for a tobacco spray.

Nicotine will kill spider mite ON CONTANCt. It is a quick and easy TEMPORARY fix that could cause your plant much stress. I would only reccomend it if you plan on doing something more about it in the future because a nicotine spray will only kill the mites, im not sure if it kills the eggs though, i dont think so.

You need to find a product that kills the bug and ends its lifecyle.

safer's end-all is a good product. kills most type of bugs and the eggs.
you can get a spray or in concentrate for the better bang for your buck


good luck with those dirty cocksuckers ;)

ill lend some advice if you dont mind chuck, at that age myman, i wouldnt quite use nutes. in about 2 weeks youll want to get a high nitrogen nute, in other words, on the back label their are % of N-P-K. Nitrogen, should be the highest. When you get to flower youll want more P-K and less N. As far as brands, Foxfarm is the good shit nowadays. I dont take offense to being corrected on the Brand though....I also like worm castings (tea). If you google any of this stuff, youll find it pretty easy! Good Luck, :peace:

Think you can help me out with this?
https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/114428-first-actual-room-grow-room.html

Maybe I shouldn't have asked in the newbie forum, was hoping to get some help though.

to tell you the truth i dont grow clones.

and, i dont offer advice on things i dont have experience in.

I dont grow clones because i only grow for personal and smoking large quantities of the same bud doesnt appeal to me. I only grow from seed and i do know how to clone but i havent grown clones so i cant really help yah, sorry man.

You may want to put this somewhere other than the newb forum. You wont get a lot of answers here.

hope that helps

i have a ? chuck,

first off im runnin a closet grow with a 400w hps 6 plants from bagseed.
my babies are 3 weeks old and at the end of 18/6, im guessin 12 hrs in---they start to wilt. ive laid off the water, 2-3 days in between now, and tonight i raised the light about 2 inches, so im up to about 14. Do ya think it was my light too close? they only seemed to wilt at the end of light cycle. hopefully thatll solve it.,,advice is helpful though.
