So two questions... First, Im not sure if this is my error, the strain or what, but what could be the possible reasons for it being so relativley tall with such small leaves? Its about 1.5 inches with leaves that are less then 1cm (pics below) Any advice would be much appreciated. Second, how big do the leaves or plant have to be before you can try and clone them succesfully, and without damaging the plant?
That stem is so long and skinny like that because either your light is too far away or not enough light, maybe both. If you are using a fluorescent light get it to within 3 inches from the tops of the plant. You should also have a fan blowing the plant too. Clones can be taken when the plant is mature and has nice branches. This is usually at least after it is 4-5 weeks old or 13+ inches tall.
