Clones cuttings

Post by Ash »

Hey all :bye: . Whats your method for clones/cuttings? Do you all like areoponic cloners or oxy bubblers or the manual way with root riots and other mediums? Whats your success rate? Just wondered bit of a random daydream on my part. Cheers :thx:

I just chop a shoot off donk in some rooting hormone and stick it straight into a small pot of coco that's been given a soaking, i then spray clone with water and inside of half a bottle and dont touch it again unless it droops then i will re-spray with water, but 99 times out of 100 it shouldn't need touching again till you see roots outa bottom of pots or you notice clone growing, it usually takes around 10 to 14 days for clone took from a vegging plant and a week or so longer for cutts took from plants in bloom, if they fail its tends to be cutts took from a plant in bloom mostly, in fact i dont think ive had a failure taking cutts from a vegging plant done this way. Has a very high success rate this methodImage.

For years I use to just take cuttings soak them in a cup of water and then chuck them in the rooting hormone gel before sticking them straight into coco, keeping them humid and moist and hope for the best. I generally had a pretty good success rate. I started adding alo vera powder and somtimes fresh alo vera gel straight to the cup of water for pre soaking. I also have used grococnut its s powdered coco water for plants, it seemed to help my success rate.

I recently got an aero cloner. I use to think they were necessary....and they aren't...but they are a really handy tool. You can take a bunch of cuttings at once and keep them alive. Which is really helpful when you have a library of clones and your constantly taking cuts. Also they are really helpful for sexing plants if you grow regular seeds. You can take cuts from you veg plants, chuck them in the cloner under 12/12 and quickly sex them...which is a big time saver and pretty helpful.

I use the Xtreme aero cloner and to date, it's my best purchase. I got the pone with the lights which make a stand-alone bit of kit, nothing else needed to clone, root, or even early veg plants. I'm yet to lose a clone I've put in there, even as late as mid-flower clones. Very good and reliable bit of kit.
