gonna veg them for 4 weeks and then flip them

i have 3 cuts of each, heard lots of good things about the GG4 so i am looking forward to the grow

i dont grow indoors in the summer its problematic for me to keep the temps down so i grow twice once in autumn and another run around this time and i dont bother with growing in the summer, i may do a few plants outdoors in my garden in mid may though.......

How were the cuttings shipped to keep them fresh? Moist plastic bag? No issues with rooting them?

Does anyone know how long cuttings can survive in the post like this? I've sent clones overseas before, but I always rooted them first.

the bag wasnt moist, some damp tissues were wrapped around the bottom of the stems but they were wrapped in a plastic bag..

unrooted cuttings last longer in transit than rooted cuttings, i have received unrooted cuttings from the states it took 5 days for me to receive it here in england and they were fine ( pre 98 bubba kush)

i have also sent unrooted cuttings and i did the same by taping some moist tissue paper to the bottom of the stems to keep them moist and it has worked every time...

they root just fine too no issues whatsoever....

update

got all the cuttings to root even though they are looking a bit sickly, but the roots have popped out of the drainage holes in all of them,

need to get some compost and perlite from the store...

the GG4 stretches a lot so might have to prune her back around 2 weeks before the flip but got a while to go yet.....

was gonna run both strains at the same time but now coz of the height differences between them it might get a bit problematic so i may just run the ggs and leave the stardawg as a mom and run it next time around.
ill see how it goes...

anyone else ever use ona gel for the grow room,

ive been reading and some growers are saying not to leave it in the same room as your plants as it affects the taste and the smell of the buds,, is this true?? i was thinking of leaving the ona gel on a small table with a fan blowing on it?

thanks in advance
