Thoughts on cloning

sikkinixx · Mar 8, 2014

So I have seen a lot of posts lately about trouble with cloning. Lots of pics of ugly clones, that will in all likelihood pull through, but I want to improve my cloning.

This is a batch of some clones that are just starting to root...

ugly right?

They will root and recover, but still.

problem is the plant you started them from . if you had that plant being hit hard with nutrients and healthy very green . the clones you cut off them will store the nutrients and stay green until they root . they ran out of nutrients that's why they look like that . suggest next time. put some nutrients in your water , 1/4 strength . it will take longer to root but at least they will stay green .

Buuuuuuuuut, after spending who knows how much on rock wool cubes I finally but a small cloner for about $62 with tax.

The improvement is remarkable! Roots after 7 days. No yellow leaves. And it's pretty much plug in and play set up. Fill with water and done. No constant spraying... but you can if you want

It won't take long to save money on cubes. Highly recommended.

Do you fully submerge your ends or keep them just above the water?

Thank you.
I clone in soil & my last go-round was pretty dismal, probably 50% or so.
Usually I'm much better but I must have done something different enough to cause that, so I just ordered one.
I'm just tired of farting around misting etc & it looks really simple.

Thanks again my friend.
