Clone test.
    #356132 - 01/31/10 08:14 PM (14 years, 1 month ago)

I've cloned before in the past with slight success but I just stuck them in peat pellets and kept them moist.

I'm going to try the Han's method (with slight adjustment to follow direction on the bottle of b-1)and see how that works for me.

Ok, I had some straight up and down growth and after extensive research learning how pruning increases yields is pretty much every fruiting plant/tree.

I was gunna remove them and toss them anyways but figured why not do a test run cloning to see where I'm at this early before outdoor season or if I'm going to need some practice.

I have a good feeling this time around. Wish me luck.



The method I used consisted of normal cutting of a 4-6 inch specimen.

Trimmed like normal cloning procedures.

The cutting where dipped into rootech gel then immediately placed into a small cup containing a B-1 rooting solution.

They where left to soak for about 25 min when they where dipped in rootech again then placed into some soil.

The remaining water from the cup used to soak was filled in the small resevoir to the depth of about 3/4 of an inch.

Place on a heating mat.

Temp of substrate.


Temp of ambient air.

I've also been working on cloning.

Best of luck to you.


What is the B1 for?

I think it stimulates roots.

The chart says to soak rockwool cubes in it and the bottle says u can just soak the stems in it, where u want roots to grow.

Some kind of hormone.

I think its almost the same as the clonex solution they use in they're cloners.

Ok guys, take a tray like this Take one of these little pumps (there like 10 bucks at petco) and stick it to the side of the tray so it stirs the water. Now take a air pump and a air stone and put the air stone right under the output of the little water pump so the bubbles get caught up in the water stream coming out of the pump.

Now put something over the top of the tray that will hold the cuttings with about 1 to 1.5inch of the stem in the water. No need for a dome or misting the cuttings. Just remember to change the water every day and I will guarantee any of you at least 80% success.

I just bought the one at the only hydro(type) shop in the area.

http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=3351#

I like supporting them because they carry some nutes I use and don't have to get them shipped that way.

Lowe's has a different brand for like 30 bucks with the plant tray and pellets included.
It's only a single as mine is a double.

No I still dip the clones in the gel like normal.

With no gel

With gel

Some secrets for you folks. Know why there is rooting hormone in cutting gel? So that when you read the label you get happy. Know the real job of rooting gel? The real job is to weaken the outer surface or actually burn it so that roots can start easier. Scraping does the same thing pretty much with out the fungus killer.

Since I'm in a clone learning stage. I'll try this. Already have what I need.
That's nice for a change.


Water pH between 6.4 to 6.8 OK ? Or should it be closer to 6?


Thanks

I think closer to 6 pH is better from what I have read for aero cloners.

You know to tell the truth I just use the water right out of the tap. I don't start to worry about the ph till I see roots.

Nice to know.
