is it possible to clone just the sucker leaves to get another plant

[Bubby]

This should be in the propagation section..

but no, I've never heard of anyone cloning just the leaves. You need a growth tip.

There "is" a theoretical way to clone from the cells of a plant. but success I haven't heard of yet. Other plants yes, but not MJ as of yet (at least i haven't heard of it). It's done in like a petri dish or something and a tissue culture not the normal way to clone and very complex and ultra sterile. better to do it the way everyone else here does it.

cellular cloning
Cloning a cell means to derive a population of cells from a single cell. In the case of unicellular organisms such as bacteria and yeast, this process is remarkably simple and essentially only requires the inoculation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inoculation) of the appropriate medium. However, in the case of cell cultures from higher organisms, cell cloning is an arduous task as these cells will not readily grow in standard media.
A useful tissue culture technique used to clone distinct lineages of cell lines involves the use of cloning rings (cylinders). According to this technique, a single-cell suspension of cells which have been exposed to a mutagenic agent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutagen) or drug used to drive selection (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection) is plated at high dilution to create isolated colonies; each arising from a single and potentially clonally distinct cell. At an early growth stage when colonies consist of only a few of cells, sterile polystyrene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polystyrene) rings (cloning rings), which have been dipped in grease are placed over an individual colony and a small amount of trypsin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trypsin) is added. Cloned cells are collected from inside the ring and transferred to a new vessel for further growth.

do you know how to make a clone machine

[goddog]

ya, go to the 99 cent store get a little shortbread tin with a plastic lid,
go to the nursery and get some peat disks...

stick em under a light, close, for 1-2 weeks...

do you know how to make a clone machine just look in the DIY section: this is the first i found-im sure you'll find more searching there;) $35 DIY Cloner- Bubbler Style - Growing Marijuana Forum (http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2799)

:yeahthat: and if you want to shrink it down a bit you can i did it in a shoe box sized plastic box.

[PurpleSkunk]

i use 5 gallon plastic water jug cut it in half fits 6 clones works great.u always run into someone who thinks u can use just the leave to clone,but ive never seen it.and i wouldnt say there isnt a way to do it u just never know.PS

LOL! We got bored one day and made a cutting out of a fan leaf. It actually rooted! But it was just a fan leaf and after two weeks I threw it out since it didn't do anything but live.

Now I feel bad I killed it.
