First, you have to find some cloning solution, theres liquid, and theres powder. I use the liquid formula, just cause its easier. Take any sprout that looks healthy, and cut a sliver of the stem from the bottom, so u can see the inside of the stem, this will help the stem root better. next, take the clone and soak it pretty good in some cloning solution. Get some pure water ph'd at around 6.0, and get a plug or rockwool for the clone to root in. soak that plug or rockwool in the phd water, along with a little cloning formula, and stick the clone in the plug or rw, then stick that into the water. any floro will work to clone, but keep a close eye on the ph and the amount of water. change the water every other day, and you should have some nice clones in a week or so.

I thank you! & Rolanda thanks you!
but do I order the liquid or can I get it at any home & garden store??
cut jus the sprout or the whole node, fan leaf and all??

[smokey]

yea u cant by it at any garden store rooting powder or liquid

You can get cloning formula at any garden store. you only put the solution on the bottom of the stem, and a tiny bit in the water it sits in. Take a diagonal section of the bottom of the stem, itll help it root faster!
