Why should it be free of the internal clock if the clock mechanism is encoded at the genetic level? I am trying to throw you an olive leaf branch of a branch here. I will try to find the recent research I was told about. The pointy heads say there is no clone fade...

Quick somebody get a turkey leg for hogleg, he's about to short circuit up in here. Did none of you get the memo from Hillary on this one? Oh yeah, I forgot, she deleted that one.

Back in the USSA. The Feds are supposed to supply an army and regulate interstate commerce. WTF is going on with this country? Wake up everyone, the issue isn't Obamacare, Gay Marriage, Asia Pacific Trade Agreement. The issue is what States died and left you incompetent buffoons the boss? Laugh...

It depends on whether or not there is a woodchuck involved.

I got burned on Amazon last year, got mushrooms instead of bonnets. So I lurked THP and found Judy and scored some MOA Bonnets. She's a bad bad lady. She's an enabler! I thought I had my pepper addiction under control and then she sent me all those freebies. She destroyed my well laid plans and...

Devil's advocate checking in, I know this may be heresy here, but my lurkings in the MJ forums suggest that while yes you get more "buds", you stunt the fruit. In the end it's a wash. Bushy plant with many smaller fruit. They do it primarily because of indoor space height constraints. Does this...

For those of you in this area who don't know about this guy (he flies under the radar)... http://sunriseacres.mypldi.net Don't let his list on website put you off, I went to his farm several weeks ago and he has ALL KINDS of killer peppers. Certified organic and 70 cents a pop! Vipers...

I wouldn't "sweat" it, if it's that hot then the aphids aren't going to like it either. Here's a snippet from a study on aphid temperature tolerance... But in the hot experiment, the difference between life and death was only 3°C. Aphids stopped moving at 39°C and at 41-42°C they go into a heat...

After giving more thought to what KrakenPeppers is saying, I could see where there may be some substance to this "loss of vigor". The recent research I mentioned earlier indicated that the clones still carry the original cell clock of the mother. Since peppers tend to taper off fruit production...

Thanks for the tip, are you using a mesh bag on the branch, what about pollination? I have worked with computers since the Commodore days so most things are easier for me to visualize in this way. Wow, I'm really dating myself here.

Clones do provide at least one very important purpose for someone like me that grows non isolated, I had 2 of 10 dragons last season that had some ridiculously giant fruit and I wanted to ensure their lineage in case my seeds crossed (which some did). I think this question was for me. No I...

We'll just have to agree to disagree, I think a clone is a whole complete plant, but I have heard research recently suggests that the clone's biological clock is still synced to the mother as far as age and lifespan. I've got right now both a dragon and a mushroom clone I overwintered and they...

I understand what you're saying, I'm just in agreement with hog leg. Just from an observational view I see holes. My example was a top level established branch, you could say it wasn't "designed" to sprout roots, and yet I've seen them do it. So a branch of a branch of a branch should be able to...

I certainly know little about this subject, but I do see a couple of flaws to this core structure theory. I grew clones last year from established "woody" stems. If the plant was thinking about growth "behavior", it would have said "hey, I shouldn't be growing roots out of my higher branch wood...

The mushrooms were about half the heat of the dragons last year, but they had an awesome flavor. Even stranger, when I dried and ground them, their powder was twice as hot as the dragon powder that I made during the same time. This year this hybrid plant is my tallest and fastest growing. I've...

Last year was my first grow, being new to this I thought crosses were somewhat of a rarity. I kept my different types of peppers a couple of feet from each other. I grew this year from my best first fruits' seeds from last year.   A couple of days ago while doing my nightly "pepper plant...

I had a bumper crop in Oklahoma last year in full sun so I'm really excited to compare results this year using aluminet. We're already in the mid 90's.

From what I read they look for the most infested plants to lay their eggs. That helps ensure their young will have plenty of food. The adults do feed as well, once they're full, they lay their eggs. I grow organic only so they were a great relief to have come along and completely eradicate all...

I came across a few weeks ago, I looked around on here and didn't see where anyone had posted this so I thought most would be interested in this...   Highlights:   Shade cloth shows striking returns   Working in the unrelenting climate of south Georgia, Diaz-Perez began to study the performance...
