I’m about to do the same on the Kailash I’m starting on 12/12 today, taking lowers to clone, every time feels like a small gamble

Aren’t clones best taken from the bottom? That’s what I remember.

Man I’ve heard everything under the sun as far as where the best spot to clone is. I don’t m ow what I believe any more so I just take what makes sense in the moment

They all work usually. Some strains just don’t want to clone as easy.

I’ve always believed the closer the cut is to the roots the faster they root.

I knew I had 2 Old Timer’s Stash. Today I had a 3rd one show. Really wanted to fill that spot. They look real nice. Robust comes to mind. They’ll veg about 2 more weeks. Get them topped again too. Photos are on a charging phone. I’ll post tomorrow.
Must have been holding my mouth right.

Yes. The hormones that help cuttings take root are in higher concentrations in the lower branches than the upper.

All the best!!

Sea of Green was the method we used to run and we would pack 300 clones , vegged 10 days after rooting and then flipped in 1gallon pots under 5 HID lamps… 3 HPS 1000w and 2 MH 1000w. The goal was an ounce a plant and the original Shishkaberry was a perfect plant for it.
Here is the Shishkaberry F1 female from old 1998 seeds that I managed to get to sprout in 2016 and used her as the female in my 2017 seed batch using an Ustad Shishkaberry 3f2 male, That male came from the same seeds were are running in this thread.
Here is how the F1 female turned out in my “SOG” test. Two clones from same plant one vegged 5 days and the oher 10 days from clone and flipped. She broke the ounce a plant dry weight with ease in both the 5 day and 10 veg tests.

I’ve ran into bud and stock rot with shiskaberry grown in a green house something as simple as a dead leaf laying on a bud can create problems. Indoors not a big issue just high humidity and large solid buds is a recipe for trouble .

@SHSC-1 Here’s those Old Timer’s Stash. Plants are healthy. Topped once. I’d like to top again before they gob to flower, but not sure I can wait. @SHSC-1 said a decent stretch out of those.
So excited about these! I’ve got a good feeling.
