You can root clones with regular water. I have. Dont put them strait i soil they will probably die. Keep in a cup of water on the window sill.

I dont know how broke you are but a tiny bottle of dutchmaster rooting hormone is pretty damn cheap, and if you can spend 12cents on rockwool cubes, you could use water and just keep some humidity domes on them, or plastic wrap. Just keep the air humid.

You might even be better off just waiting, there will be some major new growth from the transplant, and longer stronger shoots cut with a clean razor through a node will definitely root a lot better, with or without rooting hormone.

Hope that helps.

Aspirin and willow bark, I believe as a tea, are both substitutes (and much safer for you to handle) for rooting hormone.

ok good ideas all around thnx guys...im pretty broke tho and theres a willow tree in the park down the street so i can use that until i aquire funds for the horms...

how long does it take for the clones to start showing some roots? and also can i just continue flowering the cuttings right away or do they need to veg for a while in order to root? im asking because they already have buds forming on them and i dont want them to hermie

I don't know the specifics of making the willow tea... wait a minute..! I c&p'd a smart guy's post.. hold on... Crap, ok, he hasn't posted a recipe that I can find. I think it actually has to be the bark, and it has to be boiled. That's all I know, and I don't know that for sure.

Make your own willow water:
by gathering about two cups of pencil-thin willow branches cut to 1-3 inch lengths. Steep twigs in a half-gallon of boiling water overnight. Refrigerated liquid kept in a jar with a tight-fitting lid will remain effective up to two months. (Label jar so you won’t confuse it with your homemade moonshine.) Overnight, soak cuttings you wish to root. Or water soil into which you have planted your cuttings with the willow water. Two applications should be sufficient. Some cuttings root directly in a jar of willow water. Make a fresh batch for each use. You can also use lukewarm water and let twigs soak for 24-48 hours.
