Alright, thanks guys! I hate feeling like I have no clue what's going on with 'em, lol. I hear ya, DenseBuds, I don't actually need any of these clones, so I figured ten would be enough to practice on. Nice round number. lol I just wanna get it down before I do need 'em, in a couple months I'll be planting Chronic, and with what those seeds cost, I would much rather be able to take clones off every generation, than keep buying seeds! Although - half these clones are from my one really bushy LS, I wouldn't mind keeping her around, I suppose.They look pretty decent but as other folks have said, clones tend to swing back and forth a bit from looking "good"/perky to bendy/droopy. I've found that they're generally more perky for the first 3-5 days and then they'll start to droop for 3-5 days, then the lower leaves will start to die and yellow when it begins to grow roots. 3-5 days after the bottom leafs begin to die, I usually see roots.
But this is all w/ an aerocloner so I'm sure the timing is different. Also, I likely would see roots faster since my clones don't sit in any kind of soil/material. They're just open to the air/water.
Clones are fickle. I've found it's easiest to just cut more than you'll want/need. If they all root, you just toss the ones you don't have room for.
Speaking of - I'm excited, noticed last night that all five of them are showing preflowers! Kind of amazed, considering they are just into their seventh week of veg, and still don't have alternating nodes.
