Just wanted to show off my 15 day roots in my $17 homemade cloner. Started with 25. 1 went out quick, but i expected it do to it being a very small cutting.

Nice man... That's definitely worth showing off... Hey- I'm trying to get ideas for the h.p. aero setup I'm working out. So you have the roots directly in the net pots- is there neoprene discs holding the stems initially?

yep 2" neoprenes. they work great, fit snug and dont put to much of a squeeze on the cuttings.

So how are you going to go from little nets to big ones? Net pot inside of net pot?

Legit! I've got my first little bubble cloner going now, hope they turn out half that good!

i did that
the net pot in a net pot thing, its a bit messy, and sorta defeats the purpose. i clone in a 1" slab of foam with holes made from a pencil. i tear the foam up when they are ready, not very efficient, but it works
the foam sits on top of a home made bubble tote.

No they are going to go from that cloner to a vegger i made at the same time. the vegger uses an eco 185 to flow through 12-360 sprayers. (clones should have been moved to the vegger at 10 days) but I wanted to show off some roots. it should be a ten day root and a ten day veg. from there I run perpetual harvest at 20 day intervals. I run 3- 4 inch pvc pipes into heavy duty totes per system. there are 360 sprayers between every cup being fed by a eco 396. trellis sits 14 inches above the pipe. all ladies are trimmed to be spruces thus being a single giant cola a piece.

Thanks bro- it was my idea to do this too, and now you've confirmed it...

good to hear bastard, I really think you will like them. And my water line is right up under the nets. 1/8 inch or so below. In this cloner i have 4 air stones in it. its a tiny pump hooked up to a 5way. wasnt getting the splash do to the type of stones I use. they are great for millions of tiny bubbles but not good for big splashing ones. different stones are better and you dont need as many, but had these left over from when I was runnin a rdwc system. water is roughly 1 1/2 inches below the lid. its a 10gal rubbermade storage bin. like 3 bucks at lowes.

I have 80% or so stubble roots between 4 and 6 days in clone. i dont run the cutting all the way through the cup just to the bottom. from the stubble i could put into dirt, different cups ect. ect. My babies start and finish in them little bad boys.
