Cuttings with airlock?????

[Weed4Life]

I know cloning is alittle tricky or whatever so heres what I did:

Boiled scicors to sterelize blades.

Cut lower branch at 45 deg. and stuck in water immediately. Trimmed leaves.

Dipped clone in Rootech cloning gel and dipped in anti-wilt and put clone in a cup of distilled water with a drop of Superthrive per gallon.

I covered the top of the cup with foil and poked a whole in the middle for the clone and the clone was sitting on one of the cut nodes so it was suspended in water. Water covered half the stem.

THIS IS WHAT I READ:
Grow Marijuana FAQ, Cannabis cultivation - marijuana growing tips & photos (http://www.drugs-forum.com/growfaq/1122.htm)
"As with normal cloning, you immediately dip the cutting in the water for about 15 to 30 seconds, tweaking it to dislodge any air bubbles that may be present. But the biggest difference is, you wont be removing the cutting from the water until it has roots big enough to support the foliage above."
IS THIS TRUE? Need help cloning please. Contact me.

PLease someone respond with some helpful info on what I am doing wrong. If I dont learn about it now, I guess I'll have to wait till next crop.

You could use a humidity dome. They get water from the air so you need to keep it around 75-80% humidity. I've found it easiest to use peat pellets. Just soak'em, they swell up, and you put a clone in. They sell these cool trays with domes and abunch of peat pellets in them. I have had nearly perfect success with the one I use. Make sure light doesn't get to the roots. Roots are light sensitive.

take your clones from a mother at least 2 monts old b4 taking clones flush a couple of times to wash some N out and to get more carbs in the steams,use a razor not scissors the scissors will crush the steams,when you have made a 45deg cut place clone in rooting gel for 10-15 seconds then place straight in a rookwool cube put in probagation tent mist clones morning and night in 2 weeks you will have roots,dont forget to let the clones breath,hope this helps:thumbsup:

So you have done yours this way and you have 100% success? Is this the exact way you do it? My mother plant is around 2 months old so thats good. A razor huh, sterelize a new one in Alcohol right? I am not here 4 days a week so thats why I am going with Anti-wilt so I wont need spraying or a dome. Also how long do they stay under the light. 24/0?
If you give detail list that would be cool.

you will get better results with a dome using anti wilt or not spray them they need it, have your lights on 18/6,yes sterelize the blade and clean the blade inbetween cuts to lower the risk of infections spreading:thumbsup:
