cutting stress

Hello

I recieved some cuttings from a mate not sure what they are but I am very grateful, I just have a few questions about there health...

Right now they look ok I HAVE POTTED THEM INTOA SOIL/PERLITE MIX.

However during the cutting stage they have been through a bit! They were cloned in a bubbler cloner all 50 rooted in 5-10days.

1.They suffered bad spidermite infestation and this hurt them.
2. They suffered cold nights - alot of purple stems.
3. I had the light on 24hrs but went away for a couple days and the light was off I m not sure how long it had been off???
4. They all had alot of dead leaves fall off and they went through stages of looking real droopy.

My main question is if a plant has all this stress and the beginning of the grow does this seriously effect the quality and yield of the plant. I must say now 2 weeks into veg all of the plants look extremely healthy...

Just a question I have thought about a lot but nevered asked....

Thanks for any thoughts on this :joint:

as long as they are healthy when you put them into flower you should be fine

It should be OK, however I'd suggest being careful if they've been infested by spidermites. You should always be careful not to bring pests into your grow area when bringing in cuttings or plants from somewhere else.

Good luck!

AGREED! I took on some hitchhiking gnats. Been dealing with them since.

Wow... I'm surprised they made it out alive personally.

The health of the plant when you flower her is what the outcome will depend on,I would get a no pest strip to care care of the mites though,they aint goin away by themselves!

Hi

Thanks for all the replys.

Glad to hear I haven't got too much to worry about.
I have been spraying the plants to rid the mites and might gey some predators to really wipe them out!

I m glad to hear I haven't ruined my chances of a good crop already!

Thanks again...

Does any of these sections expose a cutting to probable hermie problems?

Dependent on the strain. I have stressed out my plants before and had no problems.
