Cloning always seemed like an advanced technique and very mysterious to me until I'd done it a time or two. I went out and bought an aerocloner, read every post I could find, watched grow videos - I thought you had to be a scientist to do it or something.

Fact is, it's simple and anyone can do it. I use plain RO water, sometime with a drop or two of superthrive, a humidity dome, a plain ole 24" fluorescent shop light, Clonex rooting compound, usually rapid rooters (on stinkys advice) but I just used some rockwool with same 100% success. Summer heat seems to be harder on them and they take a little longer to perk back up but they always do eventually. The day after you clone them they often look dead but just keep misting them, they'll come back. I don't use any ferts until roots showing through the rooters, then start with 1/4 or 1/2 strength depending on strain.
