^^ lemme say first off that ive tried rr and coco in the past with pretty bad success rates however i always got by w/ what i needed

now i wanna start a system that depends on clones, the last time i tried rapid rooters i didnt have a thermostat so iam willing to give it one more shot, or should i just something like turbo klone or ez clone machine? ive heard good and bad with the machine, seems like the major flaw is the water can get hot

you can build a very nice aero cloner for very little money and it has to be the easiest way to clone. nothing but tap water is needed, no misting , no domes, no additives and i have had 100% success for years with mine.

I use a fast food cups with lids. I change out the water once a day and mist three times a day. Easy and cheap. The only thing the ez clone machines does is re-oxygen the water so I don't have to change the water out daily. Since it's really not that much work, I don't mind the water changes if it means I'm saving $200-$400.

Perlite and plain water or coco and plain water. I can't vouch for your water but perlite or coco are almost foolproof. Perlite and spring water works like magic.

I have a Turbo Klone 48 machine and I'm wonder if I should let the water running constant 24-7 or let it timer off and on? I was told that I should let the machine cycle off and on for 15min or so, anybody have any info for me?

I got 100% success on only my second attempt at cloning.

I recommend Rockwool cubes soaked in a very weak nute solution; I used 1/4 tspn Flora Nova Grow per gallon for soaking.

Get a thermostatically controlled heat mat for under the tray.
