GIRL's GOT SKILLS

Definitely does. And idk if anyone else has had this problem. But anything I've received has been used to being in high humidity in transit.
Mine wilt out if I don't also put them under a dome for and ween em off

Stems cut, in cup of water. Under dome.
I almost lost a second package. Watched them start wilting away in cups of water. Quick threw a Rubbermaid tub over them and they completely stopped wilting.

Like I said. Might not be necessary for all. But for me it was the only way

That may have happened to me last time... Cuts didn't do good from the start... And watched some rooted cuts just wilt away... After transplanted I still haven't figured that one out... But what ever it takes I'm done losing plants....

Welcome back Aspen. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles but excited for you at the same time. Kids are something else. It's going to be an adventure.

Can't wait to see your show this time around. You're fucking crazy for receiving cuts in the mail like that. I'm way too chicken. Good luck, I'll be over here smoking on some glue.

Thanks Del... Had a few touchy days this week she knows we go to court on Thursday.... So she can tell her story to the judge... She's ready to face all of that... Don't ask me how... she's one strong little girl...

Cuts are a funny thing..... they arent plants....and it isnt weed.....

The fact is if they start busting you for cuts.....then stoners will start sending cuts to ....um..... unfriendly peeps.....

IN the past Ive sent cuts in a bit of tubing filled with wet vermiculite....

Good luck aspen with all your new girls.....

yeah if vegged to big , you can always trim them back a week before flower . i've done that more times than i can count because i veg for at least a month & sometimes more regardless , so they need to be trimmed back before flower most times .

I like to trim a lot of the plant back when I go into flower. By doing this I get it to grow flowers where I want them to grow. It also sets the roots to foliage ratio off balance and causes the foliage to grow more to balance itself back out. Again putting that growth where I want it.

the dome is a good way of bringing them back to life if they do start to wilt . the cups of water & an overnight soak load the stems & tops with water to keep them turgid while your cutting & sticking them in the cloner or root plugs , but sometimes they can get dry again from lack of humidity or other reasons & will start to wilt . thats when you stick a dome over them to help bring them back .
you shouldn't have to many problems though , they're some nice woody cuts & should stay pretty turgid after a soaking . i have much better luck with woodier cuts than soft stemmed ones . they last longer in shipping too .

Wait till you try transatlantic clones. Lol. Add our heat, pretty much excludes us from clone shipping.

Itchy that's a great idea I never looked at it that way.... Root are the key.... And I want to blow it up.... I will let them veg full term with four tops then cut them back... At week five of veg.... Sound like a plan?

What I like to do is grow them up full. Then strip the plant back to the best growth tips. That will focus the growth at the best bud locations.

If it does not have a good solid stem I dont like to save it. I will take just the lower growth tips leaving the fan next to it and leave just the growth tip I want to grow.

It is similar to what Jungle Boyz do on Instagram. They strip the fans I leave is the only difference. Go on Instagram and check out their grow to see what I mean.

I had a tub like that but the water kept coming outta the top around the lid?? How's it working for u?? U get low pressure pump??

The water sprays down, not up in two of them. So I don't have issues with the the water dripping out around the top of those two when they run. The other one that does spray up, sits with in another tub and the inner tub has holes in the bottom to allow the water to flow between the two tubs as the water leaks around the top of the inner tub.

If I understand corectly I do the same basically. Take the lower suckers. But I leave the fans at the node. They will die off on their own when they are ready. When I pull fans it's really only a handful from the top and mostly those that block light from the center of the plant.
I like to think that those big lower fans soak up a lot of light for me. So I keep em around

Having said that. I did what aspen plans to do bout 5 days ago I took several inches off the top of my veggers that were getting away. All new growth is quite even and it took no time to rebound

I also supercrop right thru stretch as branches try to take he lead.

I'm a terrible over vegger. Due to timing.. always
