I got some clones going, and Im curious as to the answers of the following:
1) Whats the optimum temperature for your clone dome? Im using one of those plastic trays, with the clear dome on top you buy at the grow store for about 5 bucks.
2) I see people suggesting a heat mat for the bottom of the clone box, but I don't see specifically what type to get? The only kinds of heat mats Im aware of are the ones they sell for reptiles in pet stores. Any suggestions?
3) What specific humidity is best inside the clone dome?
4) I saw a guy who cloned some plants just using a cup of water with some cellophane over the cup, by sitting it in a window in non direct sunlight, and letting it start to root. Can this be done? Or is it necessary to have a bubble line in there oxygenating the cutting? Or would this system require frequent water changes?
About me:
Teaching myself stealth hydro in an armoire, have a few practice plants set up, and Im teaching myself the art form. The armoire is fully pimped with all the right gear, tempatures, ph, etc...I'm currently trying to find the most efficient way for me to master the art of cloning.
Ive read lots of FAQs here on these boards, but haven't seen answers to these questions specifically. Im a scientist by trade, so Im looking for some hard facts, cause I like to keep tight exact control over my grow environment . I'm looking to create the perfect SoG system built out of 2 armoires, stealth style, and see how much yield I can push out using a hydro specific Inidica strain I got from Nirvana, thats meant to grow short and ultra bushy, and is extremly forgiving to n00bs, called Supergirl.
Can anyone help?
Thanks alot!
