I had a fair amount of luck this summer rooting clones from my outdoor plants by just stickin' em in cloning powder then straight into medium, no dome at all (after years of using an aerocloner). One thing that seemed to work really well that I picked up from a guest I heard on a podcast... rather than simply taking a few cuts and then trimming them down and removing lower leaf nodules, I stripped lower leaves off at the nodules on branches I intended to clone (i.e. stripped while still on the mother plant), waited a few days, then snipped. The guest who mentioned it was talking about the droop clones often get and how pre-trimming allowed the mother plant to easily absorb the stress rather than putting all that on a cutting. Early results seemed promising, YMMV.

dude, that makes sense. I'm definitely 100% always doing that now, for sure. haha

Aloe vera plant works 100% so far for me. cut aloe leave, take clone at 45° ruff up bottom of stem, dunk in aloe leaf, then into moist soil, no dome, 70%RH, 18\6 of low light
Do you keep a aloe vera plant alive just to do that? i'd be down, i can probably just buy one from home depot or something... there's some growing in front of my house but they don't look so good, they are covered in trash and cigarette butts

Just keep any Home Depot anything the hell away from your plants. I grow/propagate rare philodendrons too, and always isolate anything new in the house, even from reputable nurseries. Home Depot is a dice roll as to what’s coming home with you. Maybe I’m paranoid or partly traumatized

More Cowbell (OGKB Remix) - This strain has gone through 3 major terp profile changes. Ultimately one leaned heavy into a cookies terp with bike tire rubber upfront but is going much more toward the cookies side of the house. The 2nd pheno is an interesting woody/citrus with cookies mixed in. Early samples of both bring some serious flavor. I will be doing a preservation round at somepoint with the remaining seeds I have left. Crazy how this was a freebie pack and its been the most fire thing I have seen from Bodhi. I know im critical of the overuse of 88G13hp but in this case the OGKB and 88G13HP really did some magik.20211201_191200.jpg20211201_191214.jpg20211201_191225.jpg20211201_191231.jpg20211201_191246.jpg20211201_191250.jpg

Aloe plant cuttings will root without help, so if you've got beat up looking ones on the porch just take a fresh cut.

One of the nicest looking plants in this thread.
Hey @jdoorn14 , what’s your Tiger Tail like since it’s got OGKB also.
Look similar?

I agree , they mixed really well together. I grew the More Cowbell Remix (OGKB) and it was incredible. Super flavorful, potent herb. Some of Bodhi’s best work comes as freebies.

Yea I have one around they are only $4 or so and you can also get them at many grocerie stores. Concern about potential pests is legit though I guess.

Cloning is easy or it isn't. Relative humidity is the key to whether or not you need a dome. The cloning machines seem cool. But, I had a buddy running several for commercial grow and they got some bacteria or virus circulating. He couldn't get them clean. Replaced pumps, sanitized everything to no avail. I've left cuttings in a glass of water and got roots before. Best bet is to hedge your bets. Try some in a dome and some in open air.
Black Raspberry, the lone Black Triangle, a few of my bodhi snaps cross, and a handful of Blk Raz x Blk Tri crosses I made last year all went into flower today.
F2 the Black Raspberry and breed the single Black Triangle with the blk raz x blk tri cross to reinforce the tri side of it. Gotta get my pollen chamber set up. Calling it the frat house.

I have been an idiot before, and may be doing it again. Is the heat mat supposed to go inside the tray? I keep mine under the tray.

you guys use cloning machines? domes with cubes? i can't be at my grow everyday, i need a dummy proof way to clone...
I use a DIY aeroponic cloner with a small 600 GPH pump in a tote with 2" drilled holes in the top for clone collars. It runs 1 minute every 20 minutes.Water is PH'd to 5.5 - 6.0, I throw in 1/4 rate jacks bloom, mg, 1/16 teaspoon of kelp, and 1ml diluted bleach all per gallon. Never use too much light at this stage 100-200PPFD, I get healthy roots around 12-14 days everytime.

Sorry to hear about your clone loss, lets hope you get some pollen for that old soul #6

EZ cloner. Cut em, place them in and forget about them. No dome. Hasn't failed me yet. Used to use the dome and cubes. Changing to the EZ cloner has been a game changer!
Man, my EZ cloner worked great a couple times, but then same as @Dreaming1 stated above one day it started making the stems slimey and nothing would root, and no matter how much I've tried to disenfect it its never worked well again. Right now I'm just doing the aloe Vera dip then into rockwool cubes in the dome. I'm honestly terrible at cloning lol. The EZ cloner was so nice for that short period.

If your previously successful cloning method falters I have this suggestion...pre load the mother plant heavy on calcium.
Another trick when using domes is to add a 1/2" layer of moistened vermiculite in the bottom of the tray to better maintain high rhythm.

:^)
Interesting. Will Cal-Mag do the trick?

I’ve only cloned a few now, first year to ever take cuts and used the aloe leaf like you but then dipped the cut in rooting powder from the local ace hardware. And plugged them right in soil. Even did this with a few outdoors under a pine tree with direct sunlight in the early morning and late evening shaded by the tree through the day and got along ok no dome either.
