I'm only looking to aeroponics for my clones right now.They seem to be very succesful and a hands-off way to clone.Can you guyz let me know what else do i need and how should i be operating it ? I'm currently in soil,and i plan to stay there at the moment.. Not a huge explanation..you know .Just basic stuff :D

No mention of aero-ponics is made you confuse hydro-ponics with aero-ponics another medium to grow with heated nuted mist

Well it might be this way.I am really confused.I've watched a couple of videos and i want someone to clarify this for me.They do seem to root fast without doing much.Do you know how it works?

Ive got the 12-site version of this and this is what i do with it, get roots in 7-10 days this way, EVERY time and never had a single cutting die on me in the whole time of using it

1. fill up with tap water so pump is submerged (i normally fill up about 1/3 of the reservoir with water)
2. turn cloner pump on about 12hrs before i take cuts as this allows the pump to warm up the water slightly an reduces the risk of shocking cuts by spraying them with cold water
3. add a few drops of clonex or very weak veg nutes so its not just plain water and they are getting SOME food when the roots pop out
4. take cuttings and pop them into cloner
5. pop the lid on
6. Ignore them for 7-10 days
7. take cuttings with roots out of cloner and put them into whatever medium you are using

hope this helps

Nice explanation, it really is that simple. I f'd around for years with other methods and maybe got to 90% at best-case. Last year I built one of these in an afternoon for $60 for a 12-site and wish I had done it 30 years ago. In my test run I rooted some clones that were in week 10 of FLOWERING! A lost case using any other method, I'd never go back to any other method for cloning now. Go for it...

I'm a bit pissed at seeing this, is but a blatant copy of the very serious and expensive ""Ezy Cloner"" that growers world wide have been copying the latest 10 years or more, you should NOT need to use the hood or dome as the plants are in the 'soup' ...avoid any chemicals or nutes as you are only gonna be in this tub 5-10 days

Good luck on blowing your £55.95, but for a fraction of that you can go DIY....and rock!!

Well you shouldn't be.I got really no time to play with and experiment.I'll take that solution for now and reward the people who came up with the idea.Please do not be so butthurt.This type of expressing your ''help'' is not appreciated.Thanks.

Actually having used one of these for the last 4 years I can say without doubt that whilst you may not NEED to use the hood the cuts do root a day or so quicker if it is used

Also im sure a quick google search will bring up the manufacturers address and contact details so why not go get pissed at them instead of in here?

Hi, I am not getting roots after 13 days, my water is level with the sprayers, if I understand right, I should have water lower? Thank you
