Cyrogenic clones

[WantDaChronic]

Since i dont know of any person who has tried this, nor has anyone said its impossible, i decided to freeze a cutting there is no real point to this experiment other than to see if the clone survives or not and since i have more than enough cuttings atm, losing one wont hurt a bit

 

anyways, here is a pic, will put up another in a week or so and then if it hasnt already died, i'll pull the cutting out and see if it is possible to nurse it back to health btw, if you look at the freezer door you can see it decided to nibble at a leaf so if the cutting manages to survive, it will be amazing

seems like i have peaked a little interest in the chat room about this experiment, only problem was there were too many ideas going around not enough space or cuttings anyways, i added 3 more cuttings to the experiment...2 are in a plastic snap lock bag and are unrooted, the last is a rooted cutting and is also in a snap lock bag. to keep the experiment fair i have only used skunk #1 cuttings although the general concencious is that all the clones are gonna die anyway

 

here is the latest pic and take note of the cutting out in the open, it looks FUCKED!!! since it warmed up a tiny bit, have a look at the first pic for a comparison and that only happened in about 30 seconds from when i opened the freezer door

From my experience frost will kill most marijuana plants very quickly so I'm guessing they won't survive like you said WDC. Have you got any room in the fridge for a couple because I recon that might be a different story?

while i have some space in the fridge, i dont have enough cuttings to copy the experiment into it

Well i'll be a monkey's uncle if this works!! .. plant is mainly water, water freezes, expands and ruptures all cells

.. in the fridge maybe ..

whats gunna be next .. cloning sausages

i think the water in the cuttings will freeze and expand bursting the cells of the plant then causeing death sorry to piss on your party but i will stay tuned

[Stoney]

hmmmm cloned sausages you say

 

*stoney runs to get rockwool and a BBQ pack*

 

lmao

 

good on ya WDC i like abit of experiment as well this one will be interesting yet i think ya aint got no hope bringing them back

 

anyhoo good to see

 

cheerz :Dj:

look up 'clones in stasis'...

Results I've found reckon don't let them freeze at all as this will kill them...

However, cuttings can be kept in the fridge until required 'indefinately'...

 

cheers

well the rooted cutting in the bag fell out of the freezer when my mrs opened the door, sadly it smashed to bits the other rooted cutting looks like shit and is also frozen to a loaf of bread, but it still might pull through

 

amazingly though, the unrooted cuttings look as good as when i put them in there if they root it will not only shock the living shit out of me, i'll probably end up taking a 100 cuttings at a time and freezing them for later use that sure would save heaps of time, money and effort in regards to keeping mothers alive + could act as a back up in the event a strain dies off in the grow room

 

I'll definately give the fridge a go soon, i just have to wait for more cuttings to root so i dont mess up and lose any strains

well it worked for buck rogers..

 

wantda, theres a job for you at the mawson base down south mate, they need someone to run the hydro there to
