Best aerocloner for small time hobbyist?

Looking for an aerocloner, on the cheaper side, but that still works well for a few cuttings. When I say a few I’m talking like 6-10 at most. I also won’t be cloning that often at all so not looking for anything crazy fancy. I don’t want to go too cheap though and just waste my money. So, any recommendations? Thanks in advance my dudes.

IMO rockwool cubes are the cheapest and easiest method of cloning.
But if you want to build a cloner you'll need a light proof cantrainer with lid large enough to hold the number of clones you want to root and about a gallon Or more of water. Also some air stones large as possible the better you spread the bubbles the better they work.Ar pump and tubing as well. Once again more bubbles the better. And then some Clone Collar Cloner Foam Neoprene Inserts .
Make holes in lid to fit the collars you choose. Make a tight hole in container above the max water line for the air hose/tubing. Place air stores on botton try to spread them so that there is bubbles all across the top of the water.
I recommend the water line be no less than 1/4 inch below the bottom of the stems.

Well shit, what’s the deal with just using the cubes? Like in a hydroponic system?

Well with the cubes Once rooted you can do whatever. Go to soil, soilless, or hydro.

So you just put them in the cubes then throw em all in a seed starting dome? Or just leave them out, under some light?

So I recommend you reading some cloning teks. But I cut dip in cloning gel stick in cube put on plate under light.I vater once per day.I don't use a dome or mist.
Depending on your enviroment you hay need a dome or may need to mist.

Cool thanks bro. I’ll just do that. I’m not trying to get crazy with it just something simple that works. I’ve just got them in cups of water right now with some cloning powder and they’re looking fine after 9-10 days. If that works I’ll be more than happy with it but just wanted to be prepared in case I need to put in a little more effort.

I’d suggest going for a mid-range model that has good reviews. You don’t need anything super fancy if you’re only cloning a few cuttings, but it’s smart to avoid the really cheap ones that might not last. Check out some models that balance cost and quality, and see what other hobbyists recommend.

I think just taking healthy cuttings and maybe a little cloning gel or powder on the end of the stem (if that) is sufficient in good clones. Put directly in spring water
