What type of grow medium are you planning to use? Peat pods? Rockwoot? Root Cubes? They all will work, but I learned on peat pods - they look like little coasters but when you add water they puff up and look like a big brown marshmellow of sorts.

From my perspective the rooting hormone is simply a personal choice. Back in the day (15 years ago) I used Olivia's Solution - a liquid- with peat pods and had a good success rate. Today I'm using Root Tech gel with rockwool and having a similar success rate. It's six on one hand, half-dozen on the other IMHO.

Stinky is right to not spray the cuts directly if possible, but to spray the tray and humidity dome to create the moisture.

Here are a few pics I just shot for you a minute ago:

pic 1 = little super skunk clone, very small but about the right size to stand up in a cube

pic 2 = roots starting to show thru, but needs more time to grow stronger before transplanting. Its like christmas day when you see the first tiny roots like this

pic 3 = poor lonely girl in a big dome. Notice I sprayed the tray and the dome to create moisture but not the leaves. Spraying the leaves will leach them, don't spray leaves

pic 4 = the dome on its shelf, heating pad beneath on low, under 2' flour fixture daylight tubes

pic 5 = her sister I transplanted yesterday. she was a bigger cut and rooted a few days quicker. she's a Super Skunk so I named her Pepe (as in Le Peuw)
MVP Reviewed by MVP on . Flowering 2 Master Kush Ok....new log. Not all that exciting but there it is.....take it or leave it. :D These two are in Day 20 or 21 of bloom and are doing very well. They have stretched somewhat due to a few lighting issues beyond my control but that has actually worked to my benefit (so far....:cool:) because I've been wanting to see what would happen if I stretched them to see if it would keep me having to prune and tweak the leaves so much to let the light in. Seems to me it's six of one or half dozen of the Rating: 5
