? about clones

[stuccodude]

i purchased this clone maker that keeps the clones in water like a deep water culture with a air pump and its been 2 weeks and i pulled one out tonight out of the rockwool and still no roots. they look great and i used root tone and cut at a angle. the water seems a little cold and i have them in a dome with a t5 light on 24/7. is the water or lights being on 24/7 a issue.

Give em time it will take them a little bit to fill up that rockwool

2 weeks and something is wrong, they should root in 3-4 days with the right light and temp. i cut my clones at the angle and then split the stem down the middle and scrape off the first layer of "skin" and dip into clone-x and can count on roots in 4 days.

you have the cuttings in a rockwool cube submerged in the water??

try with no cubes

 

[MrStickyScissors]

if the cubes are submerged in water thats not going to work. look at the bottom of the stem is it fat and green? sum strains take 3 weeks to root the fastest i have had is 5 to 7 days

 

[MrStickyScissors]

thats how i cut clones run 2 foot t5s thru a plastie dome over your tray of cubes just a little water so the humidity stays up throw a damp towel over the top if humidity is a issue. keep in a warm place use a heating pad on a timer on for a hour or two every 5 or 6 hours.

Agree. If you gonna clone in rockwhool do it the old way. In a mondi tray and dome. You your cloner using neoprene inserts. And give it time I've had them take as little as 3 days and as long as 3.5 weeks.

[stuccodude]

take them all out bud, you dont put them on if you bubblecloning

get small fish tank heater soyou can get the temps up a bit

use a meter to check the temp of the water if you have one

take the plants out? or just heat the water up. it is a bubble cloaner and it came with the rockwool stuff.

Who says I root in rock wool and fill my tray up half way with water And the cubes sit in water there a hydro medium works fine for me

maybe in one of those cloners. seems like everyone that uses those has problems. its so easy to cut clones.
