Can Someone Please Help Me And My Friend. I Am New To This Site And Not Quite Sure On How To Do Things Here
well what steps have you taken? when did things start to go wrong? what kind of setup are you using? as much info as you can give us would be the best way to diagnose the problem.
I never bought clones...do they have roots? if not and they have been out of water, recut the bottom at an angle and drop them in a small glass of water and keep them in dim light for about 10 days till you can see roots forming and they are about 1/2" to an inch long. if they have roots, get em into some soil. There is more but maybe you could describe what exactly is going wrong with them? Are the leaves turning yellow for example? If they just need to be planted, fill the cups with dirt and pack it very lightly, poke your finger in it make a hole and very gently place the plants in and brush dirt in to fill in the hole. The idea is to not damage the roots at all. It is actually easier to plant with less root than more as there is less to damage. You don't want to water as you want to encourage the roots to grow and seek water but you should mist the leaves daily. I would water them finally in a few days. Hope this helps without more to go on.
Thank you for responding. We bought them 3 days ago, and they have roots. The names of the clones are Greem Ogre, and Island Sweet Perks. Anyway the plants are going to be outside. Not alot of funds to do alot, so any help you can give would be cool. By the way If they were not clones I would have put them in the dirt first thing. Not really knowing anything about clones. Well anyway I have 4 plants at my house that are of unknown seed. They are about 4 inches tall and already have a smell to them and are females. And I just through a bunch of seeds in one pot until I could tell whether they were male or female and pulled all the males. Getting soil ready for transplant. Anyway I am rambling Thank You so much.
The clones are going to be outside, and need to know if putting them in pots would be ok. Dont know how they were growing. Would being outside kill them? Going to be moveing into an apt. soon. Would really like to learn about aero-ponics? Well there you have it
Its cool in the evening Calif. so low 50's That's the thing I don't know. I got them from a dispenary. If that helps. I am an avid gardner, but with vegetables. I mean I feel like weed is kinda like a cotton ( I used to raise cotton) in the sense that they are both high stress plants? Anyway enough of that
My Pleasure Just plant them, being as gentle with the roots as you can and leave them be for a day or two to get over the shock of transplanting and then start watering them. Don't use any fertilser, just water for atleast two weeks. if you start using ferts in a few weeks, start with it mixed it a half strength. Anyway, in a few days start to water them twice a week. Most failures come from new growers overwatering so definitely don't drench them every day. Good Luck
Whats most likely happen is lack of humidity, clones need to be nice and humid, make a humidity dome, say cut off the bottom of a 2l coke bottle, and mist the plant, then put the bottle over, to creat a humidity dome, or do something along those lines, also what are you keeping the clones in?
I really think its to cold to have much of a chance with an outdoor grow... mine go in the ground in late april.
HIGH All, welcome to The City weedlvndolphin.. Not Quite Sure On How To Do Things Here no problem it's easy. First you have to let us know what your clones are in and what your feeding them, what kind of lighting are you useing and so on? And yes outside would be a little early.
HIGH All, weedlvndolphin I merged your two threads into one. So by now you should have had enough advice your clones should be in soil right now. zalzal010 clones are useally taken O.F.F.F. the lower branch's of the plant. Here is some great info. Clones are just like the Mother you took them O.F.F.F. and they are ready to feed once they have roots and in soil.
