Do you use any special rooting hormones or do you just clip them and put them in the propogation tray?
Do you start your cuttings in the propogation tray and then put them into your aeroponic cloner?
What size net pots are those? My system uses 3 inches.. that would be perfect! :-P
BAH I don't know what to do now since I can't clone... You think I should just scratch the whole idea of trying to have mother plants and just grow from seed in the Aeroflo or do I have the basic idea but the particular strains I am trying to grow are hard to clone??:-(
Ok Jonny, took your advice and removed the two clones and recut and scarred them and dipped them in some more rooting compound. Hope they survive!
Good to hear from someone like you that I am doing this right at least. I am so confused about this whole cloning thing.
So where I cut them off...

Hey everybody I'm new here and I just thought that I would start a journal of my first ever grow using a custom top feed system for vegetative growth under T12 fluorescents (GE Ecolux) and an Aeroflo2 under an air cooled 400w HPS for flowering:shock:
