Possible to clone?

So ill just sum this up real quick. I have pythium and im currently to broke to combat this adversary at the moment. Any way i could just take as many clones as possible and transfer to soil? Im unsure if the sickness would just carry on to the clones or not. When ever i get some extra cash i plan to extreme clean as well as adding bennys so i can continue growing hydroponically, but in the mean time im trying not to start from ground zero. Any positive info would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah since posting ive read a thread where someone had the same problem and he did it successfully. I have already taken clones but into rockwool cubes and plan to transfer to soil when rooted. My setup is a DWC, which are notorious for pyth.

Thanks for the tip man. Im probably on the wet side, i need to shake out some moisture. How long before you see roots for you personally on average?

Mmm,,,did you use a rooting gel or powder? What type of lighting are they under? Yeah that does make a difference.
Dipped in a rooting gel, under 4 four foot T5's, around 8 - 12 days to transplant - breed dependent. That's in RootRiot, under a domed lid, using a pHed/ feed formula at 1-1-1. Add CalMag as soon as roots appear.....Should be about the same maybe +2 days....

Question; What was your tank/pot solution temp at the hot part of the day? If over 70 F for even short periods could be your base cause...

Good Luck

So basically its condition based on how long it will take. I should have figured that already. Yeah ive already figured out why im getting pyth and a warm rez is one of the causes. Thanks for the concern though.

If your moms are healthy you should see roots out of the bottom of your rockwool/media in 7-10 days. Hard to clone plants can take up to 21 days. If your rockwool is too wet, drain it by turning the tray to a 45 degree angel. That works on rockwool that isn't wrapped. Rooting homones help, but aren't necessary. If you want a great clone tutorial go to better grow hydro's fact page. Most of what they have is on the mark.
