how long is too long is a good question, how far can you stretch cannabis longevity?
    #48571 - 06/02/08 01:49 AM (16 years, 8 months ago)

i know a plant that flowers is set to die, but in how long?

can you clone a plant, and as it's a clone, will have the maturity to flower-however, can you clone a plant that's very short, let's say way under a foot, a clone that's 8" or less, and give it more longevity?

Being that it will flower no matter how short it is if the plant it was cloned from was budding(i know this from experience), what I'm asking is, despite that, since the plant is brand new as a clone, and is very young and short, will it be able to live longer if it is a short enough clone?

meaning, if I clone a plant and it's 1 foot or less, and it buds, then reverts to vegetation, is there a chance that plant would live long enough, for me to grow it to a big enough size, to make another few successful clones off that one.

this whole growing outdoors thing is difficult for me, and I'd like to be able to keep clones outside even, without having to do that pain in the ass pollinating technique on plant but not the rest crap. You know? peace

I got you, so there's a good chance that I can clone plants successfully for years, even growing outside, where there's more of a chance of a clone rooting, growing and flowering, and being near it's death in the cycle.

the reason I ask. I had a plant that was a clone and it rooted in flowering season, RIGHT AFTER it rooted it flowered, and this thing was only 6 inches tall, but wider than a 6 inch new plant obviously since it was a clone. Suprisingly enough, the other plants stopped growing when they started to flower, and this plant kept growing.

are you saying if I did this, that that plant, even though it's flowering, might have a few more months, and if it got a little bigger, I could make clones off of it or something?

I'm just saying it seems like a risk.

yeah, I don't really have that option, everyone keeps telling me that though.

so there's no way I could cheat it, huh? just constantly keep cloning the thickest branches and try and keep them as short as possible so hopefully they won't flower if under 13 hours of light?

you don't think a few would make it through the season and start growing again when the lighting goes over 13? in which i'd automatically clone the plant as soon as I saw them stop flowering, as those could die at any time, right?

does that sound more clear?

by the way, what is stretching? i'm not the cannabis expert

your clones won't grow as big as your mother plant? why? because of time? or because they're clones?

so it's not a good idea to try and make clones from an already flowering plant, they'll be to stressed out, the whole point was, come March or April or whatever, I was just going to clone the shit out of as many of the thickest branches I could

there's a lot about weed I don't understand, it's a sensitive fucking plant

I don't understand how a plant that can grow hydroponically can get too much water too easily in a pot at the same time

but your saying if the branch your cloning had flowered it'd be stressed out as well, huh?

wow, lot of good replies, this thread has been well answered. I know about the stresses, I took a clone once from a plant that had buds, I guess the branch was too small, and it died in a few days, completely dried up, I was guessing this was from the stress of trying to root a fully budded(over 2 months at that) branch of a plant.

I'm guessing the more clone of a clone of a clone of a clone of a plant you have, the better your chances of cloning a flowering plant, which is why I'm hoping I can grow a tree!

also, is there a veg fertilizer that works well? high nitrogen lower potassium or phosphate or whichever makes it flower the one in the middle, right? and for flowering just use a fertilizer with high amounts of all nutrients, right?
thanks
