Zandor cloning question??

[BigTexasBud]

Per your thread on cloning how soon do you put the cloning jell on the plant. I have heard instantly is the best way or on the sissors as you cut. Also what is the best chemicals to use and at what rate? Can you tell me how to put pics up on the board. Thanks and your threads have been most helpfull.

Putting pics...
When you do a post, go Advanced.
After you write your stuff, you have a "Manage Attachments" buttom at the bottom of the page. You open that up, and add your files to upload.
Once they upload, the window will display the file names with a "Remove" option. Then you know you uploaded successfully.
Then you can post your text and photos...
Of note: Your pictures will NOT show in the Post Preview button. You have to actually post to see the pictures.

I felt the urge to post a reply because when I was new here, I didn't know how to post pictures... and I was going BANNANAS!!! But we're good to go now...

Best,

Well the first thing I do it to have a bucket with Ph adjusted RO water with B-1 and CalMag plus added. Then I cut my clones off of mother and drop them in the bucket of water to hold them until I am ready to trim, dip and plug them.

Once you start to trim and prep the clone keep the end under water. Make your 45 deg cut under water as well if you can. Then I put the cutting in the plugs for my aero cloner and dip it in the rooting jel and place it in the aero cloner.

It's that easy. They can be held in the water for 24 hours and they will still root just fine. I do cut extras and hold them in the bucket of water incase something happends to the clones in the aero cloner (like power problems or a clog) that way I have a back up.

Did that answer your question?

I prefer Root tech cloning gel and I have had very good success with it.

I use GH nutrients 3-part formual so I feed clones 3 ml micro, grow, bloom per gallon along with 5 ml b-1 per gallon and 2 ml per gallon of CalMag Plus. My aero cloner works just fine with only 5 gallons of water and nutrients mixed.

Cloning is very easy in Aero Ponics and they do root very fast.

Thanks for the input.

What is the rate of B-1 and the cal mag?

I have a question for ZandorMan!! What is the minimum age to cut a plant for clones!! Is it a time thing or is it down to size and branches??????

[Zandor]

From seed it takes about 21-30 day's before you should cut clones.

Before that your success rate will not be as high.

You missed it.
B-1 5-ml per gallon
CalMag Plus 2-ml per gallon
