cloning question

[baddagger]

hi all was wondering something. i have some clones from a plant that been in flowering for almost two weeks. i cut some clone and got them under 24 hours of light.. but the leafs are turning yellow kinda fast cause im guessin the clones are still trying to make buds..

now i have some house and garden magic green.. can i use that on the clones or will that be too hot for them. also i know with magic green i need to apply it when the lights go off. now can i use it with the t12 lights on?

24 hours of light, no food only water, they're looking to build a root zone so give them a chance to revert back to veg stage and you'll be good.
Are the cuts in root riots? if so wait until you got plenty of roots popping out and pot up gradually.

If it looks like they are growing but yellowing out a bit you probably have new root growth.

It's common for leaves to turn yellow when a cut is in the process of making roots.

yes but the leaves were yellowing in less then 4 days of taking the cuts. The cuts came from a plant that has been in flowering for about two weeks, and i see no roots growing. So im worried that the plants is using its stored nuits for making buds still.


i have had it under 24 hours of light.. been misting the clones 3-4 times a day with water. the clones are in home made version of a ezcloner

When cuts are taken from flowering plants it is referred to "Monster Cropping". Please watch the following video with respect to where technique is described in detail.

Also, as both Croptober and FunkJungle have already stated, it is not uncommon for leaves to yellow during the cloning process.

Every thing is alright, only patience is required.

Monster cropping....never heard that one before but I do say I like the way it sounds...

Monster cropping is when you take cuts during early flower when they have little buds on them and when they start to reveg you get better structure growth compared to just taking cuts in veg.
