need cloning advice.

I ask on the newbie thread but figured I may need to ask here instead, ...I have tried to clone my plants with no luck at all...im trying a new way today...this morning I took 4 more cuttings from one of the big plants...my set up this time is a 5 gallon bucket with two holes drilled at the 5 inch mark,one has a hose in that pumps distilled water into the bucket from another bucket and the other hole drains back into the bucket im pumping water from.(so i keep 5 inches of fresh water in at all times)... i trimmed the cuttings and dipped them in rooting harmone and placed them through little holes in a styrofoam plate that floats in the freash water.I have the top of the bucket covered with clear wrap and its under a 26w cfl... will this work

probably, i just cut off small little 2-4 inch branches at a 45, scrape one side of the branch and dip in cheap walmart rooting powder and place in soil filled solo cups. I mist a couple times a day for a week or so and they do just fine. All the clones rooted fine for me...

idk man you might want to try something that will get more oxygen to the root site of your cutting... i personally use rockwool 1-1/2" cubes and do pretty much the same as chevyfan there but in rockwool instead of soil and then i transplant into coco. However when i cut i make 2 cuts.. i make my first cut long off the plant (6"-10") and then the second cut (3"-4") i do the 45 degree swipe under ph'd water so that if that plant takes anything up it is water and not air. but then i dip with dutch master replicator gel and stick into the rockwool cubes, then theygo into the humidome for 7-14 days and i am overall about 98% survival on my clones. goood luck man. there are so many ways to clone and different techniques in cloning.. make a list and mess around next time you take cuttings. take as many as you can and try some different ways. once you find a way you are comfortable with and have good luck with you will be set to clone for many years...

the best way to clone is a shot glass fresh water and some clean rocks, change the eater daily, you dont need root hormone,

rockwool for me any time. but if you want to keep your current setup you can add airpump and airstone like the ones from a fish tank
