That will be the best clone you have ever taken!!! Hope it female

Hello Mate! Yeah it's a female, the mother is flowering now and she is stunning. I have other clones of this plant already rooted, this "mini-clone" is just for fun.

Mother - Super Lemon Haze

Now, updating the topic, the mini-clone continues to grow slowly and is gradually projecting more of its center, the new tiny leaves are also developing well.

Day 49

Notice how the yellowing progressed from one day to the next on the oldest leaf but the new tiny ones still vivid green, a great sign of good rooting.

Day 51

And today, taking some photos I noticed that the little plant wants to start "rising", excellent!

Day 52

Arise!

Hello fellow growers, things started to get interesting this week, the little plant released a tiny but complete new leaf, and is growing at an increasingly faster pace now, I'm finally starting to see some clear progress. On day 54 I applied some JLF and FAA, very diluted.

Now, in order to follow the development here are the photos:

It seems that now we will have better and better development!

This is the smallest clone I've ever made and also the smallest I've ever seen without being in vitro, and I feel very happy to have managed to make it work, because if I managed to root something so small and with so few resources I fell like I can root anything now, this mini-clone was made without cloning gel, without a cloning chamber, without special lights, fancy products, rock wool or anything like that, just with old garden soil, rainwater and some homemade fertilizers in very low doses.

Now I will wait for it to get bigger and take better rooted before transplanting!

I will continue to update as it grows :dance013:
