My weakness.....cloning........help!

Alright so im going to attempt to clone my bubba kush and i think im going to use jiffy pellets in solo cups with soil. i have cloning gel and i know how to take cuttings, my clones taking root is the downfall. im 0-2 so far but i got some liquid karma and was wondering if it would be to much to soak the jiffy pellet in a light mixture of liquid karma and water to allow the pellet to expand with a little bit of nutes in it. would this be too much for the clone? should i stick with rooting gel, use the liquid karma, or both? thanks

easiest way i have found to clone is go to the hydro store and get rapid rooters in the tray its like $25 or so plus invest in a heat mat to help with the rooting process. this way i have been able to get almost 100% success rate

YESS i am 5/5 on my clones and this is my first run(Well actually the start of # 2) But I just use Clonex and Rapid rooters and it works every time. One thing i will say is dont slack on pulling off your Humidity Dome i had some leafs resting on the side of it and didn't open and i got Mold so i had to trash 2 clones and i just threw out one that was growing like a runt

id use the plugs but my hydro shop is wayyyy to outta the way. im just not sure whether i should soak the pellets in nutrient or just stick with cloning gel

This is how you clone!!! Watch the temps and open your dome everyday to make sure they dont burn and you will be successful! However if you want a surefire tried and true do dirty foe shizzle my nizzzle way to do it!? Get an ez cloner and roots accelerotor!!! I get roots in 5-6 days 100% of the time! Good luck and happy growing!

You might try an Air Root Clone out of curiosity..... >>> https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/359866-conjoined-air-root-cloning-multiple.html <<<

I haven't had much success using Root tone [reg garden center rooting powder] OR Clonex + Aerogarden with airstone. I haven't tried it in root riot cubes, with heating pad and humidity dome.

I am sold on the theory [and running some tests] of Air Root Cloning. The Mother plant IS your clone machine. You dont cut the clone off until you see roots. Worst case... the branch heals, and you get to keep that branch. I am trying it with root riot cubes, but will also try that white fluffy cotton ball looking stuff... and gauze. Basically, you lightly cut / scrape away the "bark", apply rooting compound, apply moist medium {and keep it moist} , then cover with something that light cant penetrate {I am using aluminum foil}. What to do with extra air root sites??... indeed, bend them over, plant them and have multiple root system.
