Lol.. can I use something besides peatmoss.. I dunno what... something else.

People in this thread are cracking me up. What's up with the hatred for peat moss anyway.

Thanks for the technique. I've never heard of this one yet.

For me it is just peat moss breaks down. I just use coco coir and hydroton 50/50. Feed every day, after you get a root ball. It's inert and re-usable.

Really, as you see, RIU opinions don't matter. Anyone with an asshole can have one or two.

What works for you is what works.

Dirt is not dirt.

In fact there is really no such thing as "dirt." It is a common slang is all. We are talking really about the variety of soils.

We already discussed that many times and you are just doing the troll jerk, as usual.

He named his method not the technique you vast unrelenting idiot.

You're mistaking me (again) for someone that values your opinion, Talker.

It is cute how you hump UB's leg though. :-)

In case it wasn't clear, I was only joking!!

I facepalmed when that was the first question and thought "why would you want to use something else when you just learned how to do it?"

So then when it doesn't work right, they can come back blaming you for their own mistakes. Hey, it's a new trick to me. I don't know what would make it better or worse!

I recommended the best rooting medium and you guys have to go off not knowing what you're doing and come up with all kinds of alternative shit?

Just make this as complicated and confusing as you can!

Thanks for the info Ben... I always thought It was complicated shit and had something to do with plant culture in Petri dishes... Not sure where I got that from but I'm glad you cleared it up for me... Will def be giving it a go.. I'm imagining it takes slightly longer than the bubble cloner? It's hard to understand the cut from the >|< diagram but its cool I'm interested enough now to go hunt out any YouTube clips... Cheers bud
P.s to all of those that are constantly spreading bad vibes and generally just bitching please fuck off.. Nobody enjoys reading that shit...year after year .... Be positive and contribute or why bother?

Friend of mine at the old OG, called himself Butcher Bob, did it quite a bit and every time it worked for him.

Good luck

Thanks for the great info. I cant wait to use it. I think i also have a lemon tree that im going to try it on too.

Should work but be sure the tree is actively growing. Early spring when it begins to push would be fine. I also grow citrus and other tropicals like avocados, mango, pineapples, dragon fruit. Most of my citrus and cados I grafted myself using T-bud, cleft or veneer grafts. Plan on doing a "cocktail" avocado tree, 3 rare and/or patented varieties, to one root stock come spring.

That sounds awesome. I hope to get to the point someday. I've been growing as much as i can for 10 years and still feel like i learn a lot every year.
