Just doing my part as an active member of the MICRO REVOLUTION =]

Went down to my local Walmart and picked up a few items..

2 plastic "shoe box" tubs
reflective duct tape
air stone
air pump
Foam letters from the toy section
A hole saw bit for my drill



Drilled out some holes


You can drill up to 8 holes


Wrapped the tub and top with reflective tape... This will keep the light out. Also added the air stone.. the air line goes into the tub by a small hole I drilled near the top of the tub.


I'm using black foam plugs I got from the hydro shop...


...but you can make your own by using any kind of foam product you can easily find at walmart.





Take your clones, secure them in the plugs, and make vertical slits with a razor just cutting past the skin of the stem.


Dip in rooting powder... or gel... or nothing... you can root clones with just ph'ed water.



The clones in place.. and used the 2nd tub as a humidity dome



In less the a week you should start seeing some root action


You may see some yellowing of the lower leaves, but that's ok.. Once they are yellow, simply trim them.. My theory is that the clones use the stored energy in the lower leaves to stay healthy while they make roots.


In less then 2 weeks your clones won't be clones.. they will be plants ready for transplant =]




Hope this helps anybody trying to start there own personal micro grow =]
peace/love

this was a great tutorial! Im sure plenty of people will find this to be pretty neat.

Although I am confused as to how the cloning agent does anything after you have them submerged in water. It would seem that it would be washed off or dissapate immediately.

very nice toot! Thanks

That is a great tutorial Wolfman. I'd give you a plus rep but I need to spread a little more love first. Props to you though.
If I wanted to split hairs. you could have shown a pic of the airstone's position (and pump specifications)
I'm sure one or two people will be wondering what it is for too.
They can always ask though, thats the beauty of this site.
Do you run the pump all the time?

Nice crafty work....simple enough and cheap enough for all. Do you have any holes on the humidity dome?

Awesome dude. Going to do the same.
