cheap and easy DIY cloner and what to do with the results

[headshake]

Thanks for the awsome write up.

I have one quick question.....

When you are transfering the new babies to the Hygromite the roots are not out of the basket yet so how do you ensure they are getting watered once in the new veg bubbler (since roots are not in the res water yet)? Will the bubbles take care of that?

Thanks!!!:thumbsup:

your buddies, bozo said he won't be here often for a while so let me try to answer your question for you. you can either hand water until the roots hit the nutes or you can set up a drip system to do it for you until the roots hit the nutes.

What has everyone found to be the best support for the clones in the system? Are those just strips of foam that you use in yours bozo?

he just uses foam insulation for pipes (i think) and cuts it lengthwise so it's open and easier to get the plants out when time. and he obviously cuts them into little pucks. he uses them so the clones don't fall in the res.

Also about how big of a container and how many clones would fit with an airpump that is rated for a 60 gallon aquarium?

you are more limited by the size of container that you use. you can't really have too much air. just put them evenly spaced across the top of your box. he gets like 20 or so i believe. (i'm too lazy to go back and read.)

hope this helps.

bozo, didn't mean to step on your toes, just trying to help out while you are away....so get your a$$ back!
