Power Cloners and What Nutes do you use ?

I recently picked up a Rosebud magazine and saw an article where a guy uses 1/4 strength b-52 formula and rooting gel on his clone and get great results in a week.

My previous experience with Power Cloner from Botanicare and suprethrive seemed to work well but the Power Cloner nutrient is 50$ a bottle and over priced imo.

I have a 45 site power cloner and was just wondering what nutrients people are using

I use a home made bubble cloner which is a pretty much a lower scale of the Power cloner. I just use store bought drinking water and it gives me great results with in two weeks with healthy fishbone roots.....But I have been wanting to add some food to the mix to possibly some superthrive or something?

There's a lot of people on here with a shitload more experience with hydro, But from what I've learned the cleanest water you can get, and yes, a little superthrive is just about right for what you need, the real nutes are in the cloning solution on the cuttings

Ok after first round with 45 site power cloner had about 90% success rate.

used Power Cloner solution from botanicare, Super Thrive (4 drops in 5 gal) and
Reverse Osmosis water with a small 4 inch air stone in the bottom.

TAKE 2

This time trying that method in Rosebud magazine. Well Kind of

We used Juicy Roots rooting get on the roots, Super Thrive (same as before) and about 45ml of B-52 from advanced nutrients.

Ill keep ya posted in about 7-10 days if it works :D

Clones looking great only been few days but looking real good and I found out that 3 of the sprayers were turned backwards on the power cloner so that might have effected my first batch success somewhat. b-52+superthirve+juicy roots= around 20$ a batch way cheaper than my first batch that dam Power Cloner Botanicare stuff works good but is over priced.

i ordered mine from dc hydro for about 17 bucks, I have used olivia's but it uses 6 oz to a gal. Clonex uses 2 oz to a gal. For the same price.

Okies imm try Clonex next :D.. btw to complete the b-52 experiment i ended up using 40ml of b-52 in 5 gallon ro water with 4 drop super thrive and half strength mykos beneficial fungi. my ppm is around 300ppm aswell. Seems clonex much simpler and gives the same results. Thanks all
