The last of a dying breed / Re-Vegging a clone

Hey every one. This is my first post so I apologise if it is in the wrong category.

Firstly. The strain I am dealing with is the famous Cherry pie. It is a clone only strain I have acquired from a friend.

To cut a long story short my mother plant was destroyed and the only other plants I had of the cherry pie was roughly 5 weeks into flower. I took 10 cutting from the lower arms with flower that hadn't formed a lot due to thick canopy.
All 10 clones rooted with in 14 days and looked to be off to a good start. After a week some new growth started to come through but they have not moved since. This was 3 weeks ago.
I have done a lot of monster cropping before and usually wouldn't take a cutting any longer then 2 weeks roughly into flower
But I can't afford to loose this strain

They are being fed an EC of 1.0 and PH 5.9
They are drinking 250ml every 3/4 days



Do you think I will be able to pull it back or do you think it is to far gone?
All replies are appreciated

Stay blazed an stay blessed every one ✌

A couple of pictures to show you how bad they are I can't bring myself to bin them just yet

if you stop feeding salts she will repair herself..
feel the cup when dry., now feel it after you add 1/4 (your cup size ) of water. dont water again until it feels dry.
plants this young do not need salts, she is frying

Keep on the maintenance schedule, the less hours of night the better. Both those pics have some reveg action going on. The calyxes of the bud , which are specialized leaves, will elongate and form these crazy looking single bladed leaves , often with glandular heads on them, theae leaves have no serrations and seem thick. After that, once bud has opened up, growth shoots appear and those will have normal looking leaves on them. I believe this is what they call monstercropping? You'll see why, crazy amount of off branching and growth tips from a reveg plant.

Once they progress a bit more, i would go ahead and cut off the old foliage and take the old bud off too. That way you can see what is new and prevent any pests from taking refuge in the old stuff.

The way it looks now, you are on the road to reveg.

Btw, i am not plant scientist, just stoner, all info in this post is ramblings of a high-on. K thx.

Thanks for the reply mate. Much appreciated

At that stage EC 1.0=cooking. If they are in soil, water only. If its coco? Maybe 0.2-0.4 EC of a lower N mix, like a flowering nute. Once you see new, vigorous growth you can start bumping it up.

So lower my EC? An lower my N intake? Cool man thanks for the advise I will definitely try it and post up on here how it goes. Do you think I have a chance of pulling it back from what you have seen?

Lower your EC and let that coco dry out a bit between watering. 24/7 light as well.

You should definitely be able to save that. Let it dry out almost completely before watering. Give it just ph'd water the next couple times until runoff after letting it dry out between each watering. You don't need to baby it right now. You need to just leave it alone and she'll make it. Good luck.

Im doing something similar and im not sure if shell make it. My main issue is the plant isnt taking up water so its sitting in wet coco.

Assumption, but probably because you watered her twice in a row when she didn't need it and now roots are rotting in soggy shit conditions, and/or used too big a pot too saturated. Perhaps a heat mat underneath will help.

Greenthumbharry, everybody pretty much covered what needed to be said, I have nothing really to add to help you. Don't overfeed, don't overwater, and she'll make it.

No need to PH plain water, PHing is for nutrient uptake, plants uptake water across the PH range.

You are correct. I guess the only reason I do it is to maintain the PH of the coco so it doesn't raise the PH of the nutrients I add. My water is 7.0 PH so if I added nutrients PH'd to 6.0 it could raise the PH above 6.0 where I like it to be.

I dont think you should be nuteing your clones. I think it slows/stalls the rooting process.
No nutes till they root.
