Into the cloner
|
|
I take the 2"-4" cuttings and place them in the Neoprene sleeves and into the 2" netpots. No spraying, dipping or anything! Just stick them in the cloner and your done.
My cloner is homemade. I have a 100% success rate with this system. I use tap water with 150ml of Clonex clone solution although no rooting hormone is actually needed. It does root a little faster with the solution.
The cloner is running on the same timer I use for all of my Aero setups. 1 min on and 5 mins off.
The clone system is under a 24", 2-light, HO fluorescents.
I use EZ-Clone sprayers for everything. I run a 396 GPH pump for all the systems also.
Use an 18gal. Rubbermaid Ruffneck container for your clone unit. Everything else will leak! Trust me on this, I've tried them all.
1/2" PVC pipe is used for sprayer assembly. Use an 11/64" drill bit for the sprayers. Just screw the sprayers right into the PVC pipe.
