Ok, so ive tried both and the winner is///////??????
The clone powder..... Less time to grow roots, less energy, less everything. Dont get me wrong, the gel works ok, BUT.. It took me 2 weeks to root = Gel 5 days = powder (in a bit of water of course) or for best results, soke your clippings in root powder and ph'd water over night and then make another 45degree cut the next day and put in ph'd rockwoll..... Any comments...

Good post... I have always used the gel but i think i am going to try and switch it up. I get a good result rate with my gel (sometimes 3 out of 4 make it, 4 out of 4 other times) but powder should be cleaner and less fuss. I will defiantly give it a try, any suggestions on brands you have good results with?

You can buy the powder anywhere such as Walmart and Lowe's .
I was bummed I couldn't find the gel as I used to use it religiously but I am going to stop looking and ignore all other tests and take your word as gospel to appease my ADD . I was sad every time I used the powder recently thinking I could be doing better and you have cured me !!!! Bless you . I have had 100% success rate with cloning since I started back up . I planted some seeds from a bag of kinda and it has turned out well - super short full plants with hybrid looking leaves !!!! 100% rate with "Shultz TakeRoot" that was purchased at Walmart . |

I should add I root in Pro-Mix as a medium and use one of the plastic almost clear deep storage bins and sit a dual blue tube fixture on top . The Plastic keeps the light from being too intense so I can put it in a corner of the veg room . It works really well - they are inexpensive , readily available (can be found in dollar stores , Lowes , Wlamrt , even some grocery stores) and they are really tough so they don't get crushed like the thin plastic ones in the picture .

I 2nd the Shultz Take Root,in a thread that FDD started a few of us did some experiments with different brands & makes of powders & gels,my part was that i was feeding Take Root powder to a few plants in the bud cycle,the pic in my avatar is the cola from one of the plants being fed Take Root,the bud ended up looking like a cavbeman club according to FDD,it was a monster.
I have damm near 100% sucess rate with Take Root powder cloning & im going to use the shit out of it again durring bud cycle on my next grow. Take Root uses an agent called Indole-3 Butyric Acid as the growth hormone,Indole-3 is like steroids for plants.

The reason the powder is better, is that after the first watering, it forms a gel. So more of the rooting hormone stays on the clone for longer. The gel will wash off after the firts or second watering. The powder stays on for several.
