The reason you have heard ST is good for rooting is its use as a transplanting solution. The thiamine in it helps reduce shock to the plant. But that is for plants with established roots.

You can get fancy with cloning solutions but I'd go with the hydroguard in the cloner and cuttings dipped in dip-n-gro for the highest chance of success. Don't forget to monitor your water temperature.

I don't want to have 2 veg rooms at the same time, so I was going to flower the dirt plant after the clones have rooted. I have not seen many people doing this so I Rating: 5
