I use a 125w blue cfl about 6" from tops. So all in all there should be no problems with my setup as it is? I cant see why I can clone quicker in root riot cubes from this mother than in the bubble cloner :(

Im sorry I cant understand some of the post. when you say "must be nutrients", do you mean I need to add some as I only have a few drops of superthrive as any form of nutrient, the ppms of the solution is only around 100ppm @.7

Water is @ 78-80F now, also my light schedule is 24/0, I was told this is best for cloning. Could that slow root production down?

I just checked the temps there, its @ 74.5F, I turned the aquarium heaters up a bit.

You reckon 80 is better? Does it not "cook" the clones? hmmm... could be something to try :)

Totally agree that not all fems have issues. Ive only ever grown from fems and this is the 1st hermies ive had out of a pack. Also it wasnt the climate they caused them to hermie as ALL my other plants turned out fine.. no hermies, ONLY the GHS Bubbas had that problem and I had better...

How can you tell if there is a problem with an air bubble? Also will roots just "appear" one day or do you see the progress slowly? Still no sign of anything

Whats the temps + humidity levels? I used to get that when temps and humidity were too high and also whats your ppms at? looks like slight nute burn there too.

I got 10 fems of Greenhouse seeds - bubba kush from attitude. It was in DWC under 2x600w hps 6 germinated. 3 were hermie 3 finished but were terrible (less than 1oz between them). Now usually I'd say it must just be me and my shit growing. But I also grew it alongside (some of the bubbas even...

How long on average does it take to get roots in a decent bubble cloner? I have 2 built and running at the moment - 4.7 gals tap water(water is ph8.2 and 100ppm .7conv from tap) - plenty of air, 2x 12" airstones in each cloner with its own 400 litre per hour pump, loads of bubbles - 2 drops...

A lot of those "bloom boosters" are just molasses or sugar based products, they should be fine in your soil grow though. My advice to you would be to use just the 3 part, get that down to perfection and at that stage you will realise you probably dont need any other additives as you will be...

thanks for the advice. mines phosphoric acid based ph down so im ok there. I wouldnt usually buy any additives, just had some superthrive left from a small smaple so thought i may aswell use it up. How long do the clones in a bubble cloner droop before standing up, i just cut about 50 clones...

ah ok, I dont think il be needing it for this but thanks for the info. I never usually use any additives in my dwc or cloner, only used superthrive as I have a bit there so I may aswell use it up. I find most/if not all of those additives are a waste of money.

I added a few drops of superthrive before I put the ph down in :) I dont have aquashield and I never use it, what does it do?

My water from the tap is PH 8.2 and 96ppm (.7 conversion). Is it ok to use ph down in a bubble cloner? It takes about 20 drops to get it to 5.5 in the container im using, will that be ok? Will that have any adverse affect on the clones? even with the ph down the ppm only raises very slighly.

PH issues? is your PPM rising or geting lower each time you check it?

You plants PPM will tell you if you need to feed them more or less. Heres some advice I was given, it is plastered all over the web, but I'm not sure who originally wrote it: If your water has dropped and your PPM has risen, your nutes are too concentrated. If your water has dropped and...

Why no ph buffers? Is it ok to use some ph down if you want?

afaik UV light can kill living organisms. Your roots are living orgaisms, it may kill your roots.
