Ok dude, :) this is going to be a super-mega-duper cloning crash course... money not refundable.

1. Cut off a secondary growth (couple of inches 4-6)
2. Cut off its lowest leave sets (leave only top, small leaves... not big leaves)
3. Submerge the cutting under water, re-cut 0.25" above original cut at an angle
4. Stick lower part of cutting into rooting hormone
5. Place under one CFL (no intense light)
6. Use DIY Bubble Cloner


Bubble Cloner
1. Use a small "tub" (one of those rigid Ziploc containers)
2. Make holes on top of container, insert the cuttings and "hold them" in place... be creative
3. Fill up Ziploc container with clone nutrient mix... fill it up UNDER the lowest part of the clones... 0.5" - 1.0" under the cuttings ... they should NOT be touching the water
4. Place airstone @ the bottom of the Ziploc container... run airpump 24/7
{{When the bubbles rise, they "pop"... this pop "sprays" the cuttings' undersides with nutrient mix}}

Hope that helps,

Saved this as a favorite. Now is the time I am going to use this.

I have it setup, minus drilling holes for the clones. My question is this, once I drill holes and drop the clones in... once they start rooting, won't they get stuck and not be removable from the lid? What size holes do you use?

Thanks again turtle :P

Ya,,, sounds like you'll have to cut them out..:rasta:

Yeap...

I did X-size holes... once the clones grew, and rooted, I had to delicatedly destroy the plastic "lid" that was holding the clones.

I used a "wire-cutter style hand-tool thing" to cut off piece by piece the lid, until I could get my clones out without destroying the roots.

I know, I know... not the best way to do it,... but hey! all 4 clones where successfull. :)

Hope this helps Mister
