Rooting Hormone Solution for Cloning

[Ocotillo]

Just for history searches sakes I did an experiment.......

I used my "stale" 7 month old orange jell (never dipped/contaminated) with rapid rooters and the latest technique and these couple test subjects are doing well.

Previous tests failed due to rot from moisture/temp issues.

I mean other than come sort of contamination getting into the jar. Supposings one were to always remove the jell from the jar, never dip into the jar, and discarded the dipped jell so at not to put it back into the jar.

Can jells "go bad" after a couple or several months?
Thanx.

Rooting Hormone Solution for Cloning Is there any type that is better than others or "the best", whatever you want to call it :stoned: My outdoor ladies started to flower and I'm looking at taking off one of the larger bottom branches to clone. Does it still work the same way as if you were taking a very small cutting from the plant? Should I even take a larger bottom branches off to try and clone? I'm in in the mid-west UNITED STATES at latitude 45 Help would be MUCH appreciated. :420thought: It's almost 4:20 right Rating: 5

i did it for the first time with the stuff you get at the home depot . with 6 out 8 making it. not bad for my first time. only cloned a few times.

did the other clones really not make it or did you give up on them? Some clones can take a long time to develop roots. As long as the clone has not fallen over or shriveled up then it's still alive. Sometimes it's just easier though to just chunk a couple of slow starters in favor of getting the rest moving forward.
