Built my own cloner. Most articles I have read say 7-10 days.... Mine have been in a little over 2 weeks. 1/2 are starting to get small roots right now. The other half look the same as the day put in??
Any Ideas/ it is obviously working they look as healthy as can be and as stated some showing signs of roots. just seem like it should not be taking 3-4 weeks or more as it would seem it is going to!
Thanx in advance

how big is the res, how big a pump, how many sprayers you running, need more info, some strains can take 2-3 wks to root well, some in as little as 5 days, res tempatures CAN NOT be above 68*
 
when they say 7-10 days that generous, iv seen them take 14 elsewhere, i use rockwool and have never waited more than 10-12 days

I've made about 3 of these and bought one and none of them are worth throwing in the trash. Give me some Clonex gel, Rapid Rooters and I'll have roots in less time and far less outlay.

Read on EZ Clone Website 72deg for water, 6.3 for PH. Pump is 350GPH , 36 EZ clone sprayer heads. Things sprays water great! Checked and all are getting good water spray.
18gal resevoir.. To my defense, the cheese that I am cloning was just coming back from Dehydration (those are starting) The Yumbolt 47 was probably just about 8-9 weeks old so maybe a bit primi

waste of time

word, i do keep one around as some people prefer bare root stock clones for hydro systems, rapid rooter plugs break down and get stuck in the pump over time which is also why i keep it around

no its 10 days transplant. maybe not og but almost all indicas or close noded plants.
dude are you retarded, do you even have a clue whats being asked, cannabis is not a close node plant but a pine tree is, close node plants have less if any internodal spacing

wow i see why ez cloners are so damn expensive. they have way to many sprayers, the pump is too big and over heats the res, ph is to high should be 6.0, i can make almost the same thing performance with $40, a 160gph pump, a snap-ware tote, neo colars, 10 ez cloner sprayers, 1/2 pvc, small fish tank air pump and stone

I use a small 3 gal tote. I have two bubble wands hooked to a basic air pump. I use an aquarium heat to keep ther Rez like 73. Glued a tray to the top and a humidity dome over that. The bubbles float to the surface and the stems are about an inch above the water level. When the bubbles hit the surface they pop and spray a fine mist everywhere. I use 6ish ph water with a few drops of veg nutes.

Typically I see roots in 5-7 days and once they pop they generally explode in growth.


One thing to think about is some strains are much more difficult or slower to root, it just takes more time. My friend clones using a rock wool method and his take like 3 weeks to show through the cube.

Hmmm...if they are growing roots now I wouldn't worry...I use a cloner made of an empty swiffer box and a piece of mylar insulation with some holes poked in it and it works...so I don't question...some strains just take longer to clone...
