Res: 70-72f, pH 5.6-5.8, EC .5-.6
Env: lights on 80f 70-100%rh lights off 70f 70-100%rh

I dip in elite 91 clones for 10-30secs, put them in a collar and into the cloner.

I use either clonex or dyna gro grow and TAP water. Some people say you don’t need any fertilizer for fresh cuts, those people are 100% correct. I put fertilizer in my cloner cause them shits like to root when I’m not paying attention and then they do need fertilizer and everything else.

I put a wort chiller in my cloner, a small one but it does the job, keeps the temp steady.

Sterile environment is important. Cleanliness is extremely important for fast roots.

Before cloning I always run bleach water through the cloner for an hour or so. Same with when I’m done cloning. Then I rinse it and it sits there.

This is about as pissed as they get:

Can you like me to the wort chiller you use? Thanks.

i HAD a wort chiller that was all boxed up with the rest of my brewing equipment I hadn’t used in around 5 or so years. My buddy @AlphaPhase was borrowing my glass carboys and his house didn’t burn down so that’s a plus :-)

Anyways, I use/d a cycle timer to control the temp of my cloner. I like my cloner solution(water) to be just warm to the touch. Luke warm. If it too cold I’ll reduce the off cycle time, or cycle times or just not have it turn off period. If it too warm i do the opposite.

I too add a couple drops of bleach from the start and foliar feed when i see root bumps.

Heat was a big factor for me when deciding on an aero cloner or bubble bucket. That and i really only need a couple cuts at a time so bubble bucket just made sense. Also keeping the air pump outside of the grow kept the resi around 80 in an 80+ veg tent.

NOT aero quality roots from the get but they pop out fine feeder roots days after transplant so that was good enough for me. About 20 bucks and a gallon of ice cream :mrgreen:

I started using an insulation board top because i had to cut the plant from the lid when they were ready.

Just an fyi for anyone interested but doesn't want to make the aero leap. I call it the blue bunny bubbler lol:leaf:

Done the same with the plastic Folgers coffee container, air pump and if need be, reptile heat pad, spaced out just right. 100%
