Zandor, Harddon, Or Latewood, OK read this and tell me what you think.

OK, this time around I think I kinda got things right. Please tell me where I went wrong. I clipped a clone. Then found a vase(only thing available) and cut a styrofoam plug to fit the top. The vase is colored dark enough to where no light will get in. I used Shultz take root rooting powder hormone and coated the bottom of cutting(cutting was cut at a 45degree angle and coated about four inches from bottom). Then I filled the vase a quarter of the way up with water/superthrive mix. I put the cutting into the styrfoam, and then made another hole for the airstone hose. So now I have the cutting placed above the water (not far above.) and the airstone is submerged. Then I sprayed the cutting with MG leaf shine(anti-wilt??). Now its chillin and a bubblin away. How did I do? I need props, or cunstructive criticism. Thanks for all your help in the past fellas. Oh, and by the way....Luckydan.....your input will prob help to.(had to be a smart-ass)Thanks fellas-emtpockets:)

Pics show final product....whatcha think yall?
Also....how often do I change the water/superthrive mix, or do I change it at all?

You did good Macgyver....

Thanks....learned from da best!

yeah, you got everything from wally's...just watch, in a few days you will see something...you don't have to change anything for the duration of rooting...but we don't use styrofoam, we use a dense foam rubber...mine came from the garden kneepads (a pad you kneel on)...I can't remember why the styrofoam is not a good idea, but hopefully Zandor will fill in the blanks...good job, that plug just might work for you, because I forgot you had that giant clone, so your roots won't grow through it, I don't believe...goodluck, glad we could help.later

Thank you much...I hope it works!

One thing I might add...be patient, as I recall, I broke a big top and cut it,
cloned it, thought it was dead...it took 3-4 weeks to see life/rejuvination and I re-dipped in takeroot(by the way, pour a little takeroot into a piece of paper and dip into that, so you do not contaminate entire supply) after 2 weeks, I had given up on this top/clone...then when I took my cuttings 2-3 weeks in veg put them in cloner and suddenly everything came to life! :) ,goodluck later.peace
