Growlog link: Genética desconhecida
Hi everyone,
I’m growing some regular photoperiod 2 Silver and 2 Amnesia Haze and I want to get some clones from them.
So I’m thinking in get them to Flower stage to differentiate the sex and go back to Veg to get the clones…
Is there any problem with it? Any advice?
Thx
Never ever flip from flower back to veg. It’s a great way to hermie a plant. The only way would be to take your clippings and flip the mother plant and see if it’s female. Unless you want to take a clipping and send it out for genetic testing
You could always flip mom into flower, wait just long enough to verify the sex, take some lower branches as clones and put the clones on 18/6 light and bring them (the clones) back to veg. I did this, not by design but mostly a newbie mistake. However things worked out and I just harvested those plants. See here for some details on my mistake: Still stuck in flower? That way, you protect your mom from stress which as @SoulOurGarden indicates may cause her to Hermie. You will get to enjoy her harvest and possibly have a few more plants as well. The clones will look a little gnarly until they establish themselves in veg. Good luck.
