you must spread rep before giving to krunch........

Always great info Krunch! I used to think the same, that all your shit is marketing. But now I believe you really just wanna help and give back to a forum that has helped you a lot. Now , there probably is a lil marketing for us cats in the bay, but this is an international website and this guy isn't selling shit all over the world. And on that note I'm off to the depot.

Definitely good for the price...but it ain't the best shit ever. Everything tends to work well when you use it right. Nevertheless, the price it right

I use dip n gro and then I dip the wet dip n gro end into roottone and stick the them
in the potting medium. Roots every time have done 100s like this haven't lost one yet, knock on wood. I always start my cuttings in soil.
 
For anyone who's using this, do you just follow the instructions on the bottle ( moisten stem and dip directly into Bottle of powder) or do you mix the powder with water then dip cutting into it? Also for anyone using aero cloner how long to you let the stem contact the powder before putting over sprayers. Thanks in advance

cool thread, always good to know what products are the best value.

speaking of cloning failures, i had a phase about a year ago where i had only about 30% survival rate for 2 tries in a row. this after normally getting 99% success. i was totally clueless, blaming it on the genetics in my head even. well after a while i decided to try buying different starter cubes, and low and behold i was back to 100% success rate. it seems a rare event, but not all rockwool starter cubes are equal it seems.

i use tablets that you can dissolve in water, which you then use to wet the starter cubes, then you can just dunk the stem in some of the water and stick it in the cube. i hate powders that have to be rolled on individually, or that you have to dip and then cut the end off.

was wondering Krunch, how is it when you do hundreds of clones or thousands, do you still cut the end off with a razor blade, or you use a sizer for the last 45 degree cut?

i like to put my clones in cold water for a few minutes, to make them perky, then rool the stem in the powder...

they are called Rhizopon AA tablets, 1 tablet can be dissolved in 10 lt of water and the water used to wet the medium for the clones, or 1 tablet in 1 lt if you want to dunk the stems. i some times will do both, wet the medium with the 1 tab to 10 lt water and use the 1 tab to 1 lt for a quick stem dunk before sticking it in the medium.
 
I have been using it for about 3 years, it does work great!! I usually get lots of roots at 7 to 8 days. I buy it at OSH and yes it's only 5 bucks! Fuck buying clonex for 25.

You forgot to mention dip n grow is 1% I-3-A vs the HD stuff 0.1%,:biggrin: .
Seriously Krunch, have you tried dip n grow? Strong as hell, cheap as hell and a little goes a looooooong way.
LOVE the warehouse shot!
IMO Problem with dip n grow is it always goes bad on me. Fresh bottle works great, but after awhile it just stops working. I've tried keeping it in the fridge, dark basement cupboards etc... but it didn't seem to matter. I'm all about the rooting powders. Gonna give this one a shot.

You can replicate the tablet's dosage for soaking the medium with a shitload of the Green Light (or any other .1& IBA formula), since they're the exact same, lone active ingredient.

Those tablets are 20% IBA in 250mg tablets, equalling 50mg per 10l of water. Green Light rooting hormone is .1% IBA, so you'd need to use 50,000 mg, or 50g (10tsp, assuming 5g per tsp) of Green Light to get 50mg of IBA per 10 liters of water, or 5g (1tsp) per 1 liter of water. I may give this a try next time I clone, rather than dipping, and see what happens.
