how do you clone with the bubbler set up and what are your success rates?

i'm currently doing this and still havn't gotten a goo success rate yet. i use a shoe box size plastic tupperware spray painted black on the outside, a small heating pad underneath on low to keep temps btwn 75-85, and a 5 inch airstone. there are six plants at all time in there. out of the last batch 4 of them rotted after 7 days and the other two are still in there w no roots?!?!?

you need more bubbles or you have a ph problem of some sort are your roots beneath the water? and what size pump are you using are you using any nutes all of these are factors on giving you a correct answer.

i think everything is perfect thats what i don't understand.

the ph is kept at 6.3-6.5, no nutes although i have tried putting in a diluted rooting hormone. the pump if anything is too big.... remember i'm only using a tub the size of a shoe box. the only thing i can think of was the light was directly on the plants (a 60w daylight cfl) but yest. i moved it so they receive indirect light. the box doesn't let any light in either.

I use the same setup with 100% success rate. I don't use a heating pad, I don't pH the water, I don't use a humidity dome, and I change the water every 2-3 days. Usually have roots in about 7 days. They are put directly under flourescent lights on a 18/6 schedule. Hope that helps.

what size is your tub?
i use 18/6 schedule as well. so you only use straight water, light, and the bubbles, and you get 100% success rate?

come on where are all my people with bubble cloners... i know a lot of people use them

What Leroy said.. fresh water & bubbles. Cut on a 45º angle with three growing nodes and about two-three trimmed ones (of which I do the day before I cut). Put cuttings immediately in a glass of water and put them in the dark for 24 hours. When in tub dont put cutting in the water but make sure the spray from the exploding bubbles is wetting the stem. Takes about 14 days, 100%.

wow so how far from the water do you keep the stems.. like 1/4 inch?

I have tried this method a few times. It is really frustrating cause i have like a 40% success rate. sometimes it works sometime it dont. And i can never figure out why some work and some dont. same conditions but such a low rate? some times seems to work really well.

thats exactly my prob. i'm at like 20% success rate
