so how long does it take before you can remove the clone from the plant?

I guess one advantage is you do not need a separate area (humidity dome, extra light ect...) for your clones. It can all be done in the veg room. No need to mist your clones a few times a day while they root. The plant tends them for you. I saw one person say bigger clones can be taken. Actually you can take as big a clone as you would like with most methods.
The one disadvantage I can think of is you need to be VERY careful when peeling away the outer skin in the area to root. Too deep and you will cut of the tops 'lifeline' and it will die. Peeling is not needed but will speed the rooting process. So its better to air to the side of caution when stripping the outer layer. Just like most new things, you may have a few failures along the way. But learn from each mistake and remember "To endeavor to perceiver".

Just peak under the foil from time too time. When you see roots coming out of the rockwool wack away.

but does this method root faster then 10 days?

If one is growing under a plant count limitation...The rooted clones STILL ATTACHED TO THE MOTHER would not count as an extra plant. Only when separated from the mother would the clone be counted as a rooted plant...IMHO.

Thats a good question. It seems to me like even if it may take longer, it should be stronger than a regular clone because it has the stem to supply nutrients and water as opposed to absorbing them through the leaves. I cant wait for my mother to be ready so I can try this.

thats a great point if someone is limited to a plant count limitation.

If my plants were not flowering, I would try it to let you know. I would think that in 10 days they would have rooted. That is longer than it usually takes to start roots on a straight cutting. I am going to try it next season.
When I did it to the lemon tree, it took almost 3 weeks. The tree that came from it is perfect and now over 2 years old and full. I did not use store bought rooting compound either, but instead home made stuff made from willow bark. I would think that the gels would work wonders for this when applied to cannabis.

yea thats what i was thinking to bout the gel. figures my dog got into my grow room the other day and bit holes in my clonex and spilled it everywhere. So instead i bought the powder which is going to be a lil harder to use i guess..but still do able. Yea its funny this video came up when i was searching how to clone maple trees. I'm going to try it on a few different trees around my yard cant hurt. Giving it a try with my mj tonight. Thanks to everyone thats tried this and gave us a lil more info!

Homemade cloning paste. Crush up some Bayer aspirin, mix with a little water to make a paste. You got some cloning gel.

Bayer aspirin was one of the brands that always had caffeine. Excedrin is another brand that has caffeine. I doubt the caffeine is the active cloning ingredient, so I would use regular plain aspirin.

WOW! What a fantastic find!
I mean-- Yeah, obvious it wasn't just invented yesterday, but I didn't know about it until now, so THANKS for posting this!
p.s. Aspirin is originally taken from the bark of White Willow.

were would i get willow bark?, i like your method, if you grow organic i feel this would be true organic from
the beginning as oppose to using a chemical rooting agent
