Female clone off of a hermi

Would you suggest some kind of feed on them, as in a nitrogen additive, or wait and see if she needs it?

She looks good now, so don’t stray from what you’ve been doing. She won’t need extra N if you top, but you’ll want to start your flower nutes once you flip.

The last two waterings have been with nitrogen but the lowest dosage. I plan on watering with it again tomorrow. I know it is helping because a week ago, she wasn’t this vibrant. She looks completely different 10x more happy now. I also put her under a 1000 watt led. Was using a 240w. She just took off. Now I just hope she gets taller.

I don’t plan on flowering her for another month or so. Or do you think I can start now? Not sure how many more nodes she can handle if she doesn’t get taller or thicker.

Adding that light will help a lot. If you’re not going to flower for a month then she would have more than enough time to bounce back if you topped. How many nodes are you at now?

26

It’s starting on its 5th node now. If I could get cloning down, this would be the one I would want.

27

If you wanna clone the top, I’d let her grow out a little more. She looks like she self-topped herself?

28

How many nodes should there be if I want to clone her?

You can do it after the 5th node, but can depend on how tall they are. You don’t want to clip the top and have only a cm to put into your medium. If I were you, I’d top her after the fifth node and don’t take any clones until you switch to 12/12. Then you will be able to take you’re pick of shoots to clone. I take from the bottom where the shoots don’t get as much light. Those would end up being larfy anyways so they make great monster cropped clones.

I agree. I’m newer to this on my third or fourth serious grow. But I’ve been doing it the way @MattyBear suggest. I have good results with that. I think you’ll be happy. It’s nice to be able to pick and choose what you want to take as far as branches to clone. Enjoy your growing

Hey @Jrock9435 the folks here have a great deal of knowledge to share. I am just a few weeks into my first grow and all of the advice and instructions that I have received on the forum has been right on the mark.
