4) ph lvl?
5) lights?
6) watering cycles (or 24 hrs)?
7) any rooting accelerators?
8) anything else?
9) rooting time?
 
1) humidity? 35%
2) room temp? 80F
3) water temp? 74F
4) ph lvl? 5.8
5) lights? 4 bulb T5
6) watering cycles (or 24 hrs)? 15 min on/15 min off
7) any rooting accelerators? no
8 ) anything else? myco and enzymes (stress zyme)
9) rooting time? 5-21 days depending on strain

so you only use water no nutrients?
 
Zero nutes, once the clone has a nice set of roots, she goes to the veg unit. Some clones take longer than others and may get a spritz of foliar if they look hungry.
 
1) humidity? 40%
2) room temp? 78
3) water temp? 68-72
4) ph lvl? 5.8
5) lights? 2 bulb t5
6) watering cycles (or 24 hrs)? 15on15off
7) any rooting accelerators? yes i dip in rooting hormoan its booost my root grow not in time but i get tons of roots
8) anything else? nothing else set it and forget it
9) rooting time? 5-15 days
 
1) As high as I can keep it under a dome until roots appear
2) ~70°F
3) 65°F - 72°F
4) 6.0
5) Four 2' T5HO (total overkill)
6) 24/7 misting
7) Clonex rooting gel & Olivia's Cloning Solution
8) Twice per day foliar feeding w/pH'd water.
9) 100% success rate within 10-12 days max.

i must ask what is the reason you put a dome over babies in an aero cloner? do you get faster rooting time with a dome?
 
I think a dome would slow down rooting(since they don't have to pop roots as bad to find water).. but keeps them greener longer...
 
I firmly believe that leaving the misters on 24/7 increases the rate of root production. Also, because I tested it out with 2 separate, identical systems with the same strain :leaf:

only reason i am not running 24/7 is cuz 15/15 is a simple cheap way to solve my water temp problem :P

The dry period forces root cells to form in search of moisture; but what do I know?

That sucks to hear about your water temps. Are you running higher than 250gph for your pump? During veg and flower, I definitely bring it back to 1 on 10 off.

I know what I saw. Besides, it works out in my benefit to have roots pop faster given my operation. I agree though, they'll pop a day or two faster in the winter which works out perfectly for me:leaf:
 
1) humidity? ...I don't even pay attention in veg.
2) room temp? ...70F - 75F
3) water temp? ...70F
4) ph lvl? ...5.5 - 6
5) lights? ...2 x 4ft flos (40w)
6) watering cycles (or 24 hrs)? ...24/7
7) any rooting accelerators? ...pure tap
8) anything else? ...nothing but tap
9) rooting time? ...7 - 10 days
10) success rate? ... 100 % , everytime, always!

Nothing. I was stating that "I" run my pump 24/7 for the cloner and "I" turn it down to 1/10 during veg and flower. I just happened to test 2 separate cloners and it seemed that when the misters are on 24/7, they seemed to thrive and create more roots at a faster rate. All with the same strain and pheno too. It's all about preference at the end of the day really:leaf::peace:
