If you have a LED that can be turned down, or moved farther away yes. Light loses it’s ump pretty fast at distance, basically the PAR half’s at double the distance.

Watched a video on light and cannabis apparently seedlings can handle intense light early on. For sure in the veg state they can handle upwards of 2000 micro moles

once cloned generally put in veg for 2 weeks and then to flower - can use LED with no problem - many germination domes have led’s Happy Cultivation
NOTE !!! if you buy or giften a clone - put it in a room that has no plants because it might have bugs/insects or other issues you don’t want to affect your other plants FYI

Well when you take a cut, the plant immediately goes into shock… It will literally sit there for 2 or 3 days recovering from that shock.
So, instead put your cuts in a keg cup and put them into the fridge for 72 hours. Putting them in the fridge will cause them to go into stasis… Stasis is a much better option than shock… 72 hours later, the plants will be ready to callous and start growing roots… (BTW your plants will stay in stasis for weeks. You just need to clean the water in the keg cup periodically and make sure your clones don’t freeze…)

First thing I do it treat it as an infected plant, spray/remediation and segregation once I’m confident there’s nothing on it I do an transplant and a root clean to ensure no root/soil pests. once big enough I clone it and throw it away, basically as many layers of protection as you can use the better.

That is very interesting. How did you come by that info. Have you practiced it? Very cool to hear!
