What did you accomplish today?

I think I’ll bust out with a light dep crop too. Why not rite?
@Grandpapy you probably won’t believe this but I have a cloning tent going inside my trailer :-D

75 already rooted cuts and I’m JUST starting to insulate and rock the new building. Got a 4x8 tent setup in the shipping container. I figure I got 2ish weeks until i have to have at least the bloom room setup.
That's dedication, how do you turnaround? :lol:

I can’t believe i’m even saying this but I’m actually renting a drywall hoist. Can’t believe I actually said that.
I’ve never even seen one of them things on a jobsite. We usually hang rock to ceilings/lids off scaffolding using our heads to hold up the board while screwing it off.
But being as though it’s 12’ high and i’m hangin 12’ers, My back is fucked, My help doesn’t even own bags, only have one screwgun, only one Perry Scaffold, etc, etc, I said fuck it. :oops:

There starting to crack down on the dry wall plaster’s here. On commercial sites all ceiling panels over a certain size (can’t remember but tiny) have to be hoisted up. But it’s the tradies that wear the costs in the end

8’ers are probably fine, Most likely 12’ers.
It is also really hard to work around the plasters when they have this bulky thing in the way.
To get a restaurant open for Christmas I was finishing bricking up a the bar, with the aircon guys ducting the roof. The plasters were building the suspended ceiling and there hoist puting panels up. Sparkies racing the plasters to rough in and finishing off at the same time. It was a circus, got it done some how

I had upgraded to a cloner a few years back but to get my new setup rolling I went with old faithful. Plugs/cubes in a tray and dome.

some of you here probably aren’t aware that I have been saying, for more than 2 decades now, that I can root a popsicle stick with clonex. A few years ago on here I showed proof that I can.

What's the scoop on the aerocloners?

Run 24/7 with pool shock?

Timer 5 on 5 off keep temp down enough?

Best rooting solution?

I believe i fuckered up adding too much solution to the mix, misreading the label. I added the soaking concentration ml and not the misting propagation ml. They calloused like a mother fucker then slowed down to the point where the roots haven't really budged.

Bubble cloners to sitting in a cup of water, when they knot up like that, it's usually a couple days before the roots explode.

Started yellowing so i expected them to just pop any day. Ended up sticking them in soil after they went in limbo. There are maybe 1/4" nubbins. Mother already went in flower, which i already took more cuts in case they fail, @ 3 weeks in. This bitch doesn't stretch almost at all.

Illinois legal now, not for rec growing though, and a buddy wants me to blow up his spot, so that's why i went with aero for rapid turn over. It hasn't been that.

I've NEVER had a clone not root. Hmmm

Id take a pic of they weren't so pathetic.

I do have 30/30 seed pop, so there's that i reckon.

Pool shock yes, and further sterilize the fuck out of it in between clone crops.
I believe @tyler.durden knows the formula to make a stock solution of the pool shock. I forget what it is. Make sure and buy a packet of pool shock with calcium hypochlorite as the ingredient, not sure about using the other ones.
I recommend 24/7 if the temps are a little too low. Using a cycle time to go say, 4 min on 1 off, can help reduce temps of the water.
I never did use a cloning solution in the water. Just straight up ph corrected water with pool shock.

Thanx dude.

Been using hormex.

That was another q i forgot. How important is ph in aero?

I haven't ph anything in years with good success, even in bubble where the cut never yellowed a bit.

My temp @ 75, which i know is much too high. Can that inhibit root formation? Of course the nasties would flourish. Replenishing tap every other to keep them at bay. Shock is on its way now.

So I'm without a cycle timer or ph meter atm. Again I've never had an issue so thought id give it a whirl without either.

Best cycle timer? All the knock offs have shit review. Cheapskates pay twice and all.

Matter of fact can you just do it all for me?:D:leaf:

I bet shit would be just fine if Ph was just within a decent range. I just always corrected my tap water down to 6.0-6.2
I had both an autopilot cycle timer and i think Titan? They both worked equally well.

My take on the temp issue is that too cold and it will slow root growth, but hold more oxygen and keep nasties at bay. Whereas too warm it can speed up root growth, but not hold as much oxygen and can cause nasties.
I like a luke warm, not cold not warm temp

Sure! For half the bud I will. Hell yeah! :-)

Nice. I'm eyeing the titan currently.

Screenshot for reference.

Both for advice and proof that half the bud is the going rate for setting someone up. Buddy thought it was steep. Said go read up then bub. :leaf:
