Hi, so I am trying the turbo klone for the first time ever. I've taken clones in plugs before with success. I took
48 7 days ago, and don't even see bumps yet. I scraped off the crabium layer, and dipped in Botanicare rootek cloning gel, then put in the turbo klone machine. I checked for the first time today, and nothing. I checked the PH, and it was 8.5, wtf happened? I put in 6.3 ph'd water that was only 100 ppm from the tap. I switched the reservoir immediately. The temps are always around 78 degrees. Is the ph the reason I haven't seen bumps or roots yet? Why is the PH changing on its own? I didn't add anything to the water. Thank, any help would be appreciated, I don't want to lose my hard work now. If it makes any difference, they still look pretty healthy.
 
keep the water PHed at around 6..keep your temperature at around 75 .Leave them alone for a few more days..MAKE SURE they have humidity in a dome over the top of the clones and you should be golden.MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN THE HELL OUT OF THE CLONER..STERILIZE IT WITH H2O2 AND SCOLDING HOT WATER..ALL OF IT before you use it again.
