MoBilly’s green room

Yeah Eagles. I want to make her a mother so I can take clones from her to try breeding back to assorted GDP males. I’m hoping to get lucky and lock in that Juicy Fruit flavor through one of those males.

This makes sense to me but where would you take one? Is there anything still soft enough to root?

I took one little branch and tried. It just turned mushy. I think I had the water too close to the cutting. I tried the Folgers can method.
I just got the last of the stuff to build a better working clone box.
Maybe I could clone her but if I did it would just be one plant. I heard cloning a clone is no bueno.
If I re-veg her then I can take multiple clones for quite a while from the original.
That’s my thinking. What say you?
:thinking:

I cloned clones of clones for 17 years and never noticed a difference.

Well I don’t know if a cutting from a cutting from a cutting is really an issue with vigor, I’ve never done it. I’m thinking it would take some time for that to become a problem. Now I can see how a reveged plant, having gone through the maturation stages, would not bud as heavily since the root system is built and wouldn’t get to grow along with them. The hormonal changes are irreversible in some aspects I think. As far as I understand the botany you want vegetal growth with a growing shoot like any woody plant.

So yeah I might reveg the bottom node or two after you chop.

Hey @MoBilly, I’ve been doing clones of clones of clones…ad nauseum, for over 20 years with no ill effects… Just pick the biggest and healthiest for the new mother or clone donator. Over half of my veg room is just that. If you look at OT1’s tute on ‘Bonsai mums’, you’ll see he had done it for over 20 generations with no bad effects, at the time he wrote it in the late 1990s

edit… If anything, he said, the clones/plants were even better, or just as good and vigorous ,than the original due to better technology…
I agree!

I’d try again! And if it/they fail, reveg according to plan. Could be it was too close to water. Did it get fuzzy or just soft. I had a clone get fuzzy recently I trashed it and added a splash of h2o2 to the bubbler. No trouble since.

It got slime on it and then just went soft. The leaves just wilted and never came back.
She is at the end of week eight though. Do you think there’s time now?
Like I said, I started giving veg nutes again. (Bad idea?)
I’m hoping to keep some good greenery going for this.
I’ll try another small branch tonight after lights come back on.

was the water warm or light exposure to nutrient solution?

Thanks Johnny. Ad that to the list of crap that I was told and believed it. LOL
I was such a gullible newbie.

No, I just put it in the green room off to the side away from direct light because that is the most climate controlled room in the house. I just used ph’d well water.
I had an air pump that was too strong, I think, and it just got the cutting too wet, too long.

Beautiful plant @MoBilly! I don’t think taking clones from a plant that far into flower will work out. I would just reveg and take clones after it reverts to veg. My 2 cents. :smiley:

Thanks @Floyd .
I went into the greenroom to take some cuttings from her last night. All the smaller, lower branches were too short to fit a stem deep enough to use in the cloning box. I have a little to taste test now but I’m thinking you’re right. I’m going to reveg her and clone from her.

Takes a while but looks like it will be worth while. Very nice looking plant for sure.

Hey all. Here’s a quick look at the greenroom tonight. I’m going to be posting about the new grow tomorrow. Stay tuned, I’ll be posting the lineup and a little more. :wink:


There are lots of Fall colors going on but hardly any amber trichomes to speak of. The Cookies Kush (back left) is looking particularly sparse. She’s consumed most of her sugar leaves (she looks trimmed and ready for the dry) but still just into cloudy. I’m trying to be patient but that’s not my long suit.
Check back soon. Things have settled down to close to normal on the home place so I’ll have more time to commit to my journal. I keep forgetting that it takes a lot more time to accomplish things now days. I can’t place too many irons in the fire anymore because my fire doesn’t glow bright enough for more than a couple anymore.
Be Blessed my friends!
