Lou's full proof home cloner 100%=1 week!!!!!!!

[riffer]

Hi Lou!

I've got to ask you something!
Do you think it matters wen I put Canna Rhizotonic in the bubbl Watter?
I know plain watter would be fine, but normaly I water them with some Rhizothonik or spray atleast some solution on the leaves.
I hope they are rooting faster/ with more power and don't get yellowish....


thanks riffer

this might be a stupid question but when cloning in this method do u still need to cut the clone 40 degree angle?

so would this work?

just made a new cloner box out of an aquarium kit i purchased on a sale
its complete with lights, heater and circulation cleaner pump
i added a large air stone with a separate pump for more air in the water



















between the water and the clones i used some expanded polystyrene board apr 1 cm thick and made some holes for the clones
its not entirely light proof and some light is also in the water below with the hopefully soon to come roots
but some growers have told me its not essential for it to be lightproof as the clones will root anyway

First shown are 4 Happy Brother clones
then later i added 10 Fat Russian clones ( Crazy X Seeds, White Russian x Chronic)
the FR's seems like a sativa dominated pheno but time will tell

if this turns out a successful way of rooting ill be rooting many clones this way in the near future

temperature is ranging between 22 to 23 degrees Celsius ( apr 70 fahrenheit i think)




heres a few shots form the cloner to day
had a lot of shitty pix for some reason but heres the best of them

ROOTS
BLOODY ROOTS

so far only about 40% of the first submitted cuts are showing roots but im sure the others will be there soon
the cheese cuts where submitted later
ive opened the lid in the box as i suspected the temperature was higher there than in the temperature controlled water cause the plants are closer to the bulb and theres not much space to level out the temperature


updated 18/3 09

better pix
more roots

conclusion
its not the fastest way of rooting but its my best possibility atm to keep a stable temperature and high survival rate

i see roots in about 10 days and then they need some more time to grow bigger
