hi folks, well my new aero system seems to be doing ok, pics are on prev post 'new aero grow'. I have a question re cloning using rockwool, was wondering when i've took the clones, should they be dipped in superthrive or similar? I'm sure i read it on a post somewhere but can't find it so thought i'd just ask and someone could hopefully give me the answer.

I've took clones already and they're in rockwool at the moment, so this is for future ref. The clones i took are about a week old, but aren't showing signs of roots yet, although they are healthy enough and i know they can take up to 21 days to root? (am a right in saying that?) So i was wondering for next time, should the rockwool be dipped in superthrive or similar before i put the cuttings in them, or is there anything else that would be beneficial to them to aid quicker rooting time? I use clonex and damp the rockwool with plain water and keep them damp and spray to keep humidity in the propogator, which seems to work so far.

I was hoping to make an aero propogator but don't have time or money just now, so all i do is put cuttings in rockwool till rooted and then put them in 87mm net pots with rockwool mini cubes, dip them in nutes for a few days and then put them in aero system, which has worked well for the ones i have done so far.

Also, re the aero system on flower, I'm hoping to flower soon, and was wondering re the nutes, when changing from veg to flower, is it cool to give the flowering nutes right away or should they just be given plain water for a few days into flowering and then nutes?

Any info would be appreciated as i've just changed from soil and the hydro is pretty new to me.
