thats what the rumors are but on a kitchen table there are many toxins for that tender lil lady like for starters, oils from your hands...the foreign stuff in the dust going thru the air, the poisons in any cigg smoke and if the tables CLEAN, how about the cleaning agent used...just guessing the cleaning agent isn't agriculturally safe (wow, big word for me). your clone looks great, but i see and feel that your abusing her, NEVER want to lay her on her side...better off allowing the roots to hang for a pic, just a thought to ya. some fresh dirt, big drink of water, and some mild light and your in BIG TIME. congrats on the baby.

The clone looks great. Just get it in some dirt with some light and Im sure she will grow into a beautiful lady. Good luck with her and keep us posted. Take care.

Here is a thread on doing the same thing. Step by step throughout the thread is pretty much explained. Interesting that the results in the time and root development in the two is almost identical in comparison.

I do have an update though. A cutting of another strain recently did not take, so I can't say it's 100% successful. The method was the same. So ease of rooting is most likely strain related too.

Hello friends...I have had 2 out 3 in water take root...they are about 1' tall now...I just topped a plant and put it in water..did not want to set up cloner for 1 clipping...I atleast give them a chance, if they root great if they dont, better then tossing out...I did learn this method from Potbelly (Thanks Friend)
This was fun to do and a good way to give a single cutting a chance

ya, your right, they grow fine in dirt.

thats what the rumors are but on a kitchen table there are many toxins for that tender lil lady like for starters, oils from your hands...the foreign stuff in the dust going thru the air, the poisons in any cigg smoke and if the tables CLEAN, how about the cleaning agent used?...just guessing the cleaning agent isn't agriculturally safe (wow, big word for me).

I was thinking on the simalir lines to octo... thanks bro for typing the rest... havent seen this thread around for awhile...

i have a flower room and a nursery but they are all full up right now...my nursery has rooted clones and some seedlings going so i thought i would try putting some cuttings in some water and see what will happen....so here they are sitting on top of my cfl reflector....im going to change the water every couple days and who knows?

 

[4u2sm0ke]

Hey james..they will root here is a pic of the one in the thread start...it took fast and just did SC on her..enjoy friends

 

[trillions of atoms]

you can do it but chage the water everyday if you dont have an airstone bubbling it. they will root faster if you change it daily...

 

[james25]

thanks millions..it makes sense so i will change everyday...my faucet has an aerater type nozzle on it so the water will have more O2 innit....it's funny to me that when im rooting cuttings in the dome with rapid rooter plugs that it's better to not let the plugs get too wet or they dont root so well if at all
