My Clones Suck Someone Help

[lifted247]

yeah i was afraid of that, but all i could remember from the post was that the pump was around 20 bucks, so i got the 20$ one, the 300gph was almost 50, is there somewhere else to get it cheaper? I always get excited about my projects and forget to make lists of exactly what i am supposed to get lol

the one i got was a via aqua va305 315gph from a local hydro store for 20 bucks out the door. really its not gph you want but pressure. the nozzels dont flow that much water but these pumps suck when it comes to pressure so you really got to over do the gph to get it to spray. i looked at high pressure pumps but they really start to get pricey. im planning on building another box 40-50 sites with 500-600gph pump.

I think I see where I went wrong. Nearly all say to go low on the plant. All mine were from the top. I had cut them at a 45 angle, put into rooting powder, put into peat pellets then into a humidity dome. I'd mist them every other day or so depending on how much condensation was collecting on the hood of the dome.
I'm gonna try the RedTails approach and see how things swing. My mother plant is needing some pruning anyway.

Yes I've read Jorge's books and watched lots of video's, but I still hosed it. Maybe I just suck.

Hydroponics systems, gardening equipment, grow lights and plant nutrients at Growco Indoor Garden Supply in Grand Rapids, Michigan has 396 gph pumps for under $20. Get the ez cloner spray nozzles, red ones will screw into 1/2" schedule 40 pvc in 11/32 " holes. 2" net pots and now your growin aero. Might not go back to soil! lol. I used to use humidity domes with my aero cloner but by the time they rooted some of the leaves might have yellowed. So I am using Al B. Fuqt's method of not spraying or domes. If they want roots then they will grow them. If you spray and cover them they are not needing to push out roots because you are providing the water to the leaves. Rockwool works well for soil growing or hydro too. Keep checking this site, there is so much info from veteran growers. And when you have some success stick with it to build some confidence. Peace!

If you search there are guys that just make the ez cloner type cloners with the sprayers and in water pump. Its like 60 bucks some guy in NC makes and ships them. Try and search him however its fairly easy to take a Saturday afternoon and " git er done"
