Hey cool....should be easy to reset heater to a lower temp. If you can move the thermometer I would put it more towards the bottom and the middle of your setup....it will read water temp more accurately than where you have it. Otherwise looks good.....lots of nice air circulation.
yeah good call on the thermometor, the cuttings started to look better the day i put them in there, each time i look at them they are taller and ive knowticed some new leafs emerging today, im thinking they are gonna pull through hopefully by day 10. im gonna refrain from checkign them untill then to keep the roots in the darkest environment possible.
well my hydro guy showed me a cloner that he had......clear all the way through and he had no trouble rooting in it except for algae concerns. If the cuttings look happy by all means keep them going. I will check back and see how they do. Good luck. :)
nice. i coated the rubbermaid to make it completely black on the outside with high gloss black spray paint. its water proof but i still only did the outside incase the water could break it down i dont want that stuff in the clones
also i cover the light leek areas with black plastic to keep it really dark in the tub
'HOUND..........HAPPY EASTER TO YA.........
Yeah, I use Clonex Gel, and Anti Wilt Spray, and the Clonex rooting solution stuff in mah rez. But, you can still root w/o all the above, just takes longer has been my experience.
aap.....I am going to say that you can get Superthrive at a Wally Mart in gardening section. Its a very popular product, and with spring just around corner I am figuring they would have some in stock. I get mine at a Southern States store, but they are normally only around places like Bum Fuck Egypt where I live, so if you are a city dweller, I'd go to Wally's, Home D, Lowes, etc........and check gardening section.
Just re-read real quick.......Yes rooting powder/gel before you put in cloner.....and if you cannot find pH down, use white vinegar until ya get some. If pH is too low (which is unlikely), use baking soda to raise.
Keep us posted, we'll get ya sum rooted clones.......

after changing the light schedule to a sloppy 18/6 from 24/0 (dont have an extra timer to use) the cuttings have shown some rooting action!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: only a few out of all 20 have roots (today is day 10) and they are starting to lose some leaves. they primary shoots are growing kinda weird but they look good enough. im hoping to see roots on the longer cuttings by the weekend, and hopefully start planting the smaller cuttings which i hope will be ready :pimp: thanks for all the feedback ya'll im sure it will make the next round 2x as fast. Ill let you know the further progress and please feel free to use this thread as a discussion for the so called DIY cheapo aero cloner. this thing was so easy to make i highly suggest giving it a shot yourself!!
Good job! Let us know how they do. :)
for sure... they are going into a rubber-CFL-maid, to veg for a month then straight to flower for a sort of SOG approach. all the while recloning and vegging momma!
hey everyone, the roots have emerged on all but the biggest cuttings, that being said how long should the roots be before i take em out?
