Anyone near denver or lakewood got an old cloning maching laying around? I tried rapid rooters but my success rate is almost looking like 0 , so back to the tried and true aerocloner. I need it like yesterday since my plants are almost 2 weeks into bloom and i may have to take new cuts..... cannnnnnnnnnot lose my blue widow, loving its growth so far and with me behind the wheel, its gotta taste great too:hump:

Not that it helps, but its super easy and cheap to make one with a 5 gallon bucket. Can be done for about $25. I have one I made but rapid rooters for me are easiest and I run near 100% success so I never use the "aero cloner" anymore.

LOL. Definitely not me. I get a kick out of these rip off artists/scammers. I usually will contact them and let them know they are trying to rip people off. Like last year this guy selling a CO2 controller/monitor for very good price, I offered to buy it as I want something that is fully automated and then he tells me it was a mistake. Yet he had 2-3 posts that were the same price with differences, and after I told him so, he still did not change the price. Or a "lightly used" bubble now machine knock off that was more than could be bought on amazon and had shit reviews. And the list goes on.

How wet do you keep your rapid rooters? I find if they are too moist you will get stem rot like in your first pic. I remove more foliage, scrape and cut at an angle just below a node, and I also use a clone solution from mb ferts which is kind of like superthrive and IBA. It's not necessary but it works extremely well. I also cut the clones and immediately put them in water with a little of that clone solution, usually let them sit for a day, dunk in aloe for a rooting gel, insert in soaked rapid rooter that has had half the water squeezed out, and place in dome. I also soak rapid rooters in diluted clone solution water. I still had about 100% success before the clone solution was used, just using clonex gel, but the clone solution seems to put out more roots faster. Usually first roots show in about 5 days.

A lightproof 5 Gallon bucket, some pvc and spray heads and a fitting from home depot, some foam and small mesh baskets from grow store and a cheap pond pump from harbor freight and you're in business. For winter, throw in an aquarium heater. Should run 25-30$. If you want a larger site cloner then there are other options.

I got no wheels and my wife is taking care of businesstoday so i got the kids. And im in an extended stay motel so i dunno how my neighbors will react to power tools drillin holes in pvc and cuttng etc ..... much easier for me to purchase a used one, run some h202 through it and call it a day.

I let them start to dry then mist them or will dunk them. It's hard to say exactly. It's more of a feel. Basically just moist.
