Thanks for tuning in! This week I show off my gorgeous genetics from a great resource for clones and we are going to be transplanting these clones. This company specializes in unique genetics and I have to say, I am very impressed with the strains they sent me.
So why transplant clones?
We have transplanted plants before on Dave’s Grow, but today we are transplanting clones. I was sent 3 strains (x2) and as you see in the video I transplant all 6 of these plants into 3-gallon plastic pots. But why transplant at all? Why not just start clones in 3-gallon pots if that’s where they will end up?
The answer is root growth. I like to transplant a few times during my grow to allow the plant to completely get its roots saturated with water each time I feed. If I have an itty-bitty plant in a giant pot, there is no way that little plant can soak up all the water in the container. Starting in a smaller container prevents overwatering and allows the roots to grow to their full potential. Next time you have a small plant, start it in a smaller container like a quart. Once it gets big enough, pull that baby out of the container and you will see an amazing amount of roots from that smaller container. Lots of roots mean a healthy plant.
So why clones?
Clones are great because you know exactly what you are getting when you buy a clone. These clones come from a well-established mother plant. If the clone resource is good, they have pheno-hunted all the plants and selected the best ones to take clones from. This ensures you will have a strong and healthy plant with proven genetics.
Free World Genetics has a nice array of genetics to choose from. I am so excited to see how these plants turn out. The even growth I am seeing is a good sign that these plants will stack on the buds as we move further into flower.
You can learn more about this Colorado company here and see the list of dispensaries where their clones are available for purchase.
Don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter folks. I am going to be hosting many giveaways coming up and if you are on the list you will be the first to know. Thanks for watching and I will be posting another video soon!
Happy Gardening!
