Cloning for Dumies!

Glad to see someone else using that method with success canadiancowboy.

I have been meaning to build one myself.
I had about the same price figured.
I have tubs and my h2o is included in rent.

why is the resevoir always so large?

What's holding the clones in the bucket lid, candiancowboy? And how do you get them out once they're ready to be planted? I would really like to try that system, heard only good things about it. My clones take a month (!!!!) in rockwool, but I think the problem is my partner's overhydration.....

Whats in the tub cowboy. just whater? Do you use any cloning hormone and if you do, how?Thanx Krime13...Cool system though...

Would you cut from the mother anywhere?

Sorry I did`nt get back in a timely fashion, don`t get to this site much.
Thanks MGIDS , I`d never clone without it now.

Jesse- I like a large tub so I`m not adding more water all the time.

Lylastar-I use pipe insulation to keep the clones in place...You know the stuff wrapped around your hot water pipes, it splits in 1/2 so there is never any damage to roots on removal.

Krime13-I use bottled Spring water...seems to work best, not distilled, when the clones are just starting to show root nubs, I`ll add 2 DROPS...DROPS NOT TEASPOONS of liquid kelp in there to get the roots looking for food.
Then in about 2 days your ready to plant.

Kai- Yes I do take them from all over the plant, some swear by taking from the bottom , others swear the best is taken from the top...so to cut through the B.S. I take em from where I think they look best.

Hope this helps ya`s out peeps.
Have a good day.

Peter Parker
Well I`ve never used a 2 or 3 pt mix of anything for ferting.
I`ll plant my clones but I don`t feed em until I know they`re gonna take [ like the new soil ] once they perk up I start feeding em1/2 strength and work my way to full fert, which is just a shit tea actually.
