I would say on avg. 1.5-2 weeks...some say that would be long too long of a wait but I was never able to do the gel method or powder. I've taken hundreds of clones and know of 5 that didn't make it. It's just easy for me the bubble cloner way. A older friend of mine says the bubble cloner makes weak roots but i have had no problem with mine. Will update pics soon.

1.5 to 2 weeks is good I think, I'm never in a rush, I've known them to take 3 weeks to root in soil.

Look forward to the first 12/12pics.

Thanks Mature , It's always nice to be complimented by such a wise grower as yourself! Just a little bump date. Its been about 2 weeks I'd say and since 12/12, the hairs have since came out the tops of shoots ..... the strawberry cough is little farther along than the one NL but they are all looking great. 6 of the 10 SC clones made it, not as good as a turn out as the NL would be but I'm ok with it. New pics soon!:leaf:

:leaf:Bumpdate....I apologize about the no pic updates. I have been taking pics but have no way to get them off my camera onto my computer. But i will put them up asap. Since last update have planted (put in cup's with soil) 6 SC clones , sold 5 and kept the best one for a mother, just transplanted her also into about a 3.5 gal plastic pot today. Also ..... planted 6 seeds...they were given to me by a close friend that sells good weed and found some rare seeds in like a couple QP's... about 10 of them. I planted the seeds directly into the soil 3-4 days ago and 3 have since sprouted. Also today i took 12 NL clones for outdoor and indoor grows. Have pics of all of this coming ASAP!:leaf:

Ok finally a update with pic's! (can only upload three at a time)

Flowering Room

Day 23 or so and looking nice. Have been feeding Botinicares Power Flower in very light dose's. The NL lights seem's to be doing the best out of them all i would say (1 NL 3 SC). In the third pic is SC on the left and NL on right. Room temp just broke 80 F with a 83 F but usually at 75 F- 80 F. Planing on picking some more nutes up soon. Also the room is beginning to smell a bit...almost like strawberry's:lol:

Veg Room

In the Veg room now we have one NL mother, 1 SC on the way to be mother, 4 of the bag seed that made it out of the 6 seeds planted, which we will call BS1.......also receiving my HH clone with in a few days (she will become a mother)and plans to plant another high grade bag seed (BS2) with in a few days as well. The bubble cloner also has 12 NL cuttings in it. Pic one is NL mother, two is SC (soon to be) mother, and the third is the BS1.:leaf:

PBF, could I borrow FRED for a few days please? I promise to treat him well and provide him with plenty of mites to munch on :-) Great shot!

Could you describe how you built your bubble cloner please? I have 4 new clones coming and might try this method, I have an airpump doing nothing so might put it to good use and try something like that. Cheers.

:lol: Over night shipping Fred to you was the first thing i thought of when i read about your mites.

My bubble cloner consists of 2 rock stones, one water heater, air stone tubes, 1/4 tubing ( this will hold the clone in place) , and 2 aquarium pumps 10-15 gal. Also will need to have a drill with a 1/4in. drill bit.

If you pretty much follow the pic you got your self a bubble cloner. When i first take the clones i like to spray the shit out of them and keep them soaked for the first 48hours (stem leaves, spray everything). Also DO NOT put the stems directly in the water. Place them right above the water. This gets them splashed with water but they still get air. Here is another link on one .... I'm really not good at explaining this lol. ---->https://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=197
More Pic's coming soon! :leaf:

Little Veg Update:Got the 4 bag seed (BGS1)
all growing very swell, no stretching which I LOVE to see on a young seedling and they look healthy....all but one:lol: One out of the four just never grew anything after the round set of leaves, no pointy leaves or nothing. I have seen this before. Can anyone explain this or even have had this happen to them?

Also got the soon to be SC mother just LST'd and topped yesterday, this will help her bush out a bit.:leaf:

Decided to just get rid of that smaller non growing seedling since that others are doing much better. These pics are 5 days apart.

Flower pics coming soon!:leaf:
