Hello As SpanoonapS mentioned, we have moved our girls to 12/12. We did this last night.... is it too late to take some clippings for clones? They're just 2 hours into their first 12 hour dark period.... at midnight, when the lights turn on again... we have some tending to do. I know that you should only take clones from vegetating plants, but is one day into a 12/12 cycle already too late to take some clones?
Also, I'm reading all different things about misting the leaves. Some say it's good, others say it's bad. We weren't able to make a fair assumption since we slightly over fertilized and started seeing some burnt curled leaf tips (stopped fertilizing immediately, and also stopped misting)
Lastly, I want to thank everyone here for being so helpful and wonderful. I hope that once I gain enough experience, I will be able to give others advice, as you all have done for us. Thank you
Misting leaves it good for clones as its really the only way they can absorb water when they have no roots. As for cloning, I dont know if this was covered already but basically you get a clean razor blade or something sharp, and snip off the newest growth , if done properly, you will get 2 more shoots, if you do it wrong (FIMing [Fuck I messed up) you will end up with 4 shoots
Anywho, if you JUST recently put you plants into 12/12, you should be able to take a few cuttings from them and have them succesfully root if you keep them warm and either have humidity high or mist them every few hours
I know I probably didn't help much, but I gave it a shot, Im sure AE has some more to add..
-edit-
And those plants looks pretty healthy span, you shouldnt have a problem cloning them if they are only 12 hours into the cloning cycle.
I supercrop my plants during veg (basically just squeeze soft stems until they crunch in between my index and thumb and then they harden, and the plant can move nutrients faster through that branch due to its strengthening, at least that's what I believe to be true, could be wrong, just seems thats how it works for me, the ones I supercrop grow faster, stronger, and have buds just about the same size as the middle donkey dick bud. lol
