Hi guys first time taking clones and 10 days in no signs of roots at all by the looks of it, cuttings are in root riot cubes cut at a 45 dipped in clonex rooting gel and sat in a aeroponics cloner with a weak nute solution. They look healthy and have never wilted but showing no signs of roots? Anyone got any ideas as to why they aren’t rooting? Cheers

They're in root cubes in aeroponics why pick one. Stop pulling them out of the cubed as well

Ok thanks for the suggestions i have a dome that I mist daily as well. I will put the pump on a timer. I think i could raise the humidity a bit which probably is slowing them down

My aerocloners i dont use domes. They aren’t needed. I cut and stick 4 to 5 days there are roots. the water I toss hormex no 8 in with something close to 300 ppm of nutrients in it and a pinch of pool shock.

Youd be farther ahead to just unplug it.The RR are wet enough for 5-7 days.Maybe re dip but they may be brown already you just cant see it.

When I look at your clones it looks like they are woody older growth. Don't know what the plant they came from looks like but I find green stemmed clones shown below root easier than older woody stems.

This rooters are staying too moist. Give them time to dry a lil. Just use a propagation tray with the rooters and dome, or use the cloner without the rooters. You'll get much better results.

Which nutes are you using and what’s the ppm and ph of the solution? You might want to consider environmental factors as well

they have no roots...it doesn't matter what the ppm or ph is...they aren't absorbing any of the nutrients in the solution.
the biggest problem most people have is that they have non beneficial microbes fucking up any roots that do try to develop...use a little pool shock

Dont worry to much.
Ive had these in since the beginning og august. Still no roots. For some reason neighter clones og seeds wanna fuck with me in hydro. So i spawn seeds om Coco, i put clones in coco - this seems to work for me. Ill use a mix of Coco, perlite and a good amount of lavarocks. Soil is shit to get of roots. Like litterally u know soil is shitt. But Coco makes transfer to hydro really easy. Just put a fork to the roots and you will clean them up real good befor putting them in hydro.
