I'm here to eat my words, I got into a flap here a good while back stating how trying to speed up clones is a waste of time, yadda. Well, now I'm up against it because I need to figure out how to speed up my clone times. It usually takes mine about 2 weeks to show roots, and I want to get it down to as quick as possible.
Trying to stay under F limits you see.
I clone in a DIY bubbler. It's a Rubbermaid tub with air stones glued to the bottom. Right now I just take cuttings (from lower part, since I trim that stuff off anyways) with a razor, trim the fan leaves and stick them in the holes in the lid. The stems are trimmed so they hang just above the water line.
I have some rooting hormone in a box in the cabinet but I'd like to hear other ideas. I have some aquarium heaters lying around, will water temps make a big difference? Some kind of dome? It would be a pain in the ass to add one but I would if the old hands told me it would help much.
