Seedlings pros: Cost effective Easy to propagate Taproot Lack of susceptibility to mold, pathogens and pests Clean slate start, no systemic issues
Clones pros: More genetic consistency Uniformity Similar volume yield and appearance
Clones cons: Less cost effective Slightly more difficult Harder to acclimate Hardening off 80% success rate at scale for cloning is considered good
What are people’s opinions on starting from seed or starting from clones? Any cons for seedlings? How could future cloning technology improve the clone success rate? How have people dealt with seeds that are mite infested/pathogen infested?
