New cloning style?

ok so i have decided to test a new theory cloning from a root the expermint consist of taking a cutting not a normal cutting but one of a small portion of root and a leaf ( for side branching) or just take a side branch with a root but i will get pics later today
 
im not quite sure i understand pics would be awesome
well if my theory is corect it shouldnt take more then 2 days to root without any aid if it works will allow a couple of clones per plant but open up alot more ways and new styles that are not so time consuming but essently its use a bottem branch and take a branch off but instead of a 45 degree cut its a down cut and a very small size of root comes off as opposed to cut and stick method and im currently attempting it if i would of known this last night when i took clones i could of done this more safely

I think he meant try and clone a root, and also clone a leaf set with stem. With some plants you can cut a section of root and in the right conditions the root will grow a plant. It is also said that you can cut off a leaf set including stem, and clone from that. I have read about it, but all who have tried said it took forever, or didn't work. It will be interesting to see. I think the strain plays a role as well.


What medium will you be cloning in?

Damn i was hoping this was the post in which you take your growth scrape it and put your hormones on it then take rockwool around the growth then foil and poof a week later you get roots. Good luck with your expirement. I'm off to find that post make take weeks lol..

So are you gonna posts pics of where you cut, how yiu cut, and prep and everything? I don't think I would ever try it. But, I and many others on RIU would love to have this as a reference shall we ever want to try is for ourselves. Especially if its successful :D

Kewl stuff!!..ive read about this before and was just talking about it a few days ago with my buddy. Im glad someone did it and posted it
 
ok i had a 100% success rate and ill post pics when i sober up
this was the worst possible way to do how i done it and they survied so if your only wanting like one clone a week for a perpetual personal grow this is the way to go i used no humidity on one and its still standing with vigor :) i am really thrilled right now and high yay this is so cool
 
good and bad update : as you know i had to do this in worst case scen and litterly cut the plant in half verticcly and had a 100% survival so i have no doubts on this bieng an instant clone tech :) but with the lack of roots on one side i have to trim some of the leaves and its not about the same as a new rooted clone but does no require a humidity dome still ill be making a video on how to do a vertical clone here soon when one of my regluar clones root well enough ( 3 weeks ) and ill post a full thread on here on this style
