I have a number of very successful grows under my belt. But I never knew about Rollitup.org. As I have read all of your guys threads on your grows and such. I have came to under stand I do not know as much as I thought, and have little skill.

My Plants grow big fat and healthy, But I have always grown from seeds. After reading all of your guys opinions on Cloneing, I desided to give it a go. My first time wat 12 clones, all 12 took off and grew roots, But as luck played out, all were taken from 6 different male plants. My second try was 10 clones from a true female.. Pfft, all 10 died. Third try at cloning is going on right now. I took 12 clones this time. Following peoples advise, 45 degree cut under water, root gel, rapid rooters, clone dome, 80ish degrees. Balh, blah.. BANG!!!!!!! I really though all 12 were going to live for the first 3 days, then I thought at least 6 would live, now I am praying that 4 will live. I must be doing something wrong, like over misting, or something.

Here is what I am wondering if someone can help me out with. Does anyone know of a thread or a video on how to DIY one of those Easy Cloning machines? They work off of airoponics, which I have never used before. I have only grown with Flood& Drain, and Drip.

If not, someone know of a Video that will almost hand my hand through this Cloning trouble I am having.

I feel so ashamed.... Everyone seems to say that Cloning is so easy, I thought it was also, at least my first try. I think I am over doing something. I use no nuts. Just water, and not much light either, just side light from the cfls, and the T-5's that are on my mother plant. I can not think of anything I am doing differently. I should have kept a close journal on my cloning attempts.

Please someone save me before I go crazy. I have been all over U-tube, and this site trying to figure out how to make a easy cloner machine.

Oh,, when I mist. I wait for the inside of the dome cover to start drying up.. like maybe 60%-80% dry, then I mist the inside of the dome, and the clones and the bottom of the tray. I am wondering what I did my first try. Maybe I only misted the clones.... What a Stoner.....

i only mist a day or two. if you mist too much the cutting won't need to grow roots. if you stop misting it forces it to form roots.

FDD is it, that you only mist for a day or two then stop?? Or you only mist 1-2 times a day?

I know I am doing something stupid, and I am not able to see what it is. Most likely something simple.

i only mist for the first couple of days. i'm not very good at it though.

The most important thing to know about cloning that i've learn through trial and error is to keep the cut moist. I've done a aero cloner diy and i notice that my clone wilt very badly after a few mins of no mist(mist from the aero system not spraying), and when using rockwool it must be wet but not saturated, meaning put a lil pressure on it with your finger and you can feel the water not putting pressure on it and seeing water gushing out.

If you can stick to that rule you'll successfully clone.

Frog, I watched that video. It does not show how to build the system.

Hey Mike,
That looks like a great system, but you only listed the parts needed, not how to put it together. or how to run it. Like how do you main tain the water level? and other things/.
