On Edit: I read ur entire thread before posting, I guess the points I would like for u to reitterate for me is what temp is ur heat mat on, The plugs look really wet in the domes maybe thats why i havent had succes in a dome.... My setup has worked to date by just cloning in a cup of water but im going to be sogging my current grow so I need a proven (like such as urs)cloning method that will be sufficient to Keep my flower tub full.. Thanks for all the help in advance

You really can just call me Old...not sir...but my clone set-up.

Heatmat Tstat is set around 82--i don't think its very accurate so if it seems to be running warm I just turn it down to like 78-80 or so. Cheap tstats aren't trustworthy.

I use 2" net pots, about 36-40 per tray, put the rapid rooters in them (straight out of the bag)--upside down--so I can make my own hole with a skewer or chopstick.

I soak them to the point you see in the pic with 5 or 6 good sprays (not mists of 5.8ph water.

Cut clones, Clonex Gel, in plug.......if you aren't comfortable with this part let me know....I use the "Batch of Clones in Rockwool" System by Al B Fuct that is stickied at the top of the hydro section.

They go into the closet or bathroom attached to my op for at least a 6 hour dark period (up to 12) to recover from the shock.---this is a very important step.......Then under the floro 24/7.

Moisture level of RR.....I just watered...I lifted the dome TO water so the pic is a bonus.
The main point I want to make is that I DO NOT keep them this wet during the first 4-5 days. Keep them moist but not saturated-more moist than rw cubes but not dripping water if you pick them up.
The other thing is on day 6 (in this pic)--I KNOW with 100% certainty that any that have come that far are and will be showing roots over the next 24-48 hours and are taking up alot more water at this point.

RR are more forgiving than RW Cubes but overwatering will rot off your cuttings quickly.

Thanks...some ppl say that 'bout me.

You should carefully read and follow the Batch of Clones in Rockwool system in the hydro section. That is the system that worked for me.


Thanks for checking things out.

OLD! I have printed and will read and reread these instructions...

I dont understand why u would revert me to als thread with rockwool lol...

Im trying to follow ur system with the plugs because thats what I have found have worked best in my DWC system.I have tried rockwool but it tends to get and stay to wet while keeping water levels at proper hieghts for maximum growth during different plant stages of growth...

I havent been this excited about my grow in a long time and appreciate ur help humble king LOL Had to...Sorry..

On another note, Please stop by my grow, mainly when i cut and clone ur critique would be greatly appreciated to walk me thru the process of ur plug technique which ive decided is the best for my op.

Thanks again for all ur help! U R the man!

Al's thread should be called "A Batch of Clones in Medium of Your Choice"

Just replace the word rockwool with rapid-rooter in any of his threads.

Still the same system......

Thats......um....a lot of um..... green. Good for you Old. I will subscribe and follow this very closely. Can't wait to see this cycle. I don't think I could ever have a system like this with that many plants. I would never leave the house, or grow room for that matter. Yeah the 20 clones in rockwool by Al B. is great, sad he's not around anymore. Good luck on your grow. +rep

Good luck on your first Grow, The first one is always a little scary. You'll probably make some mistakes but everyone does. Just learn from them and you'll be growing thick buds in no time. Good Luck Bro
