Clones

[MullManiac]

Me and a mate have been trying to clone, not just weed but other plants too, and we cant get it right, we've tryed rooting powder and liquid, either right in dirt, in propergating mix and in straight water, they survive for a while but never grow roots, never grow at all and just end up dieing.
any surgestions?

Check the GrowFAQs section...

Recently, Zandor wrote up a FAQ about cloning... take it to heart.

try Anti-wilt to coat your clones that keeps them from drying out and gives them a chance to root.

hmmmmmmmmmmm..

Mull...

get a razor blade...
cut a SOFT branch 1/4 inch below a node at an angle...
Cut node off...
dip clone in rooting gel or powder so that the area the node was cut off gets covered in gel ot powder..
stick clone on wet rockwool... keep above 70 degrees...


THIS should root every time!!!!!!!!!!!

good luck

I do all that except for the rockwool part, would i be able to get this at the local nurcery?

My post should read, "IN wet rockwool"..

ya know, I am not sure if nurseries sell rockwool or simmiliar mediums... I have looked a couple places and I have not found any.. but I did not ask..

You don't have a hydro store in your area?

Wilt Spray is GOD SEND!!!!!!!
