So I've used a homemade cloner a few time with inconsistent results. As well as just a plain old humidity dome (fish tank/heating pad).
But what if you can't get these containers, or like myself are unsatisfied.
Well no fear. After a long days of work and a few beers I came home to take some clones. Now at this point I really didn't want to set up the cloner. So I got to thinking. With a little time I had just the idea!
No dome, no cloner, just simple paper towels!
First cut your clones.
Second place in medium (apply root hormones if preferred)
Then rip up some paper towels.
Then apply the paper towel to the center of a fan leaf (don't make the towel bigger than any one finger of the leaf your placing it on.
The mist until the paper towel is thoroughly soaked.
The great thing about this is that paper towels can be stacked for longer times in-between waterings.
Right now I only use two stacked bits for 4-7 hours in between waterings.
It's also a good idea to change out the paper towel every day or two to prevent any harmful growth from growing on them.
