I tried "Juicy Roots" from AN, and had an 80% failure due to following the advice of the person that gave it to me. "Fill the hole in the rooter plug with this, scrape the side of the stem and stick em in there! Job done!" Yeah,.... Right,.....

I'm not blaming the compound, just the technique. I'll try it again, tho using my normal technique of dipping the cutting, and using a second hole made by a skewer off to the side of the main hole.


Quick Q about your clones there,... Do you have a dome for them? or is ambient humidity where you are enough?
I don't recall ever using a humidity dome. I use the round plugs because they are split in the middle and you can put the stem in without disturbing the gel. I also mist them once or twice a day, and I made a solution of 1 liter H2O, 1/2 tblsp Big Bloom, and 1/4 Grow Big. I didn't use a dome for the plants I took the clones from. I just place them where they get light and away from the heat. I keep the plugs wet but not soaked, and I pre-soak them, and squeeze out the excess water when I place the stem in. Its worked for me. :thumbsup:

Let the cloning begin I'm getting ready to clone the ladies under the T5, and since I'm on a tight budget right at the moment, I found rootech cloning gel. 1/4 oz @ $4.99 on the Amazon Market Place, seller GROWaLot. Free shipping, and I got it in 3 days. Just what I need for the number of clones I plan to doing, and I will stand by this stuff. I've had 100% success using it in the past with rockwool round starter plugs. Just mentioning if anyone wants to try cloning inexpensively, check this stuff out. I first Rating: 5
