Cloning Males

[Gentlemancorpse]

So I'm assuming at least a few of the fine breeders here clone males and I was wondering how males compared to females when it comes to cloning.... easier, harder or no difference?

I ask because my GMO male cloned easier than everything else by far.... 48 hrs to well established roots... every other plant has been in there well over a week, and a few just rooted now, and not as well... trying to figure out if that's just normal or if it's something worth keeping an eye on

WmWtf? Dude.
I have waited 48 days for roots.
I give up.
Gonna go kick rocks, smoke weed , admire seed,,,

Trust me my friend, this is a first for me, hence the question! Most of my cloning attempts have landed in the compost pile... seeing roots has been a very pleasant surprise... seeing them so quickly had me looking for someone pranking me

Some cultivars just clone fast and easy. I can’t comment on whether males clone faster than females though

 

[Rozgreenburn]

I usually clone every plant I grow from seed before send them into flower and I've not noticed any difference. If a strain clones faster, I would have to think genetics. I'm no expert, but after a few thousand clones, this has been my experience. I will try keeping a few fast cloning strains on hand to cross with a few tough to clone strains!

Funny you should wonder that at the same time I was. Lol.
I have 3 Honey Sundae plants, and I took 3 clones off of two of em, and 5 off of the stinky girl a bit over two weeks ago now.
2 of 3 from female #3 took right away. 4 of 5 of the other female #1 took right away. By right away I mean withing 5 to 10 days.
Now its a little past two weeks since cut, and 1 of 3 male cuts show roots finally today, and it was 6 of 8 for the girls much sooner by at least a week. All same environment, and next to each other. Stinky one rooting the most, and the fastest of the bunch.
So stinky plants root better imho, that's my conclusion. ???
My God Bud boy I had for a good while didn't like to clone well either.
Can't remember if I had issue with any other males rooting vs their sisters.

Males and fems I have noticed are the same , seems it depends on the plant . Git a few that are a bitch and a few like my Don Juan, roots in five days . My strawberry banana take almost 2 weeks sometimes.

Trans plants?

I find that the males clone similar to the females. I find a male much more of a pita to "keep" in a small pot....I clone them chronically to keep them small enough for my space and replace as they get ratty looking. Girls last a bit longer in the same conditions before needing to be replaced.

He did it on his own. Lol. Was a robust looking Chemo male that threw pistils, and hairs like mad when I revegged him.

This one musta been a freak, no pun intended. ???

Trans plants?

Yep, he sure was. Lmfao.
Bad pic of him/it, but those are budding up ball sacs. ??? Kinda wanted to see if he'd make all male seeds if I'd of let it go. Lol

Looks like you'll have a bit of pollen there!

Yeah, he was a mess to deal with. That was from last spring 2020 pics when I had him.
Didn't end up using any of it though due to his going intersex at the end. Not gonna pass that trait on.
