Been experimenting with using dark blue glass to keep out most of the light away from the cut end. Got nubs forming on one of the two old time moonshine cuts I was gifted two weeks ago, but this seems to work better than in clear glass cups. Makes it easy when your doing a lot of trimming and other work aside from cloning, plus other methods could get messy. I still use peat pods and humidity dome when time is an issue.

Simplicity at it's finest. Can't wait to start takin' cuts off the girls this year.

Poke holes in it big enough for the stem. I have 12 plants this time, so 12 holes

Number each hole and fill it from the plant with the corresponding number

Bubble wrap works really well for this. So does closed cell foam packing material (approx 1/8" thick in sheets/rolls). They both will support a lot of weight before sinking and are very easy to work with.

It works for some, not for others. YMMV. Try it and find out.

Old thread and low tech technique, but it works great.

I have been cloning for 20 years by just dropping prepared cuttings in a glass of water, and just enough light. Low light levels are best.

Sure I have an aero cloner, and lots of rockwool cubes, rooting hormone, and all the goodies, but when when a glass of water and a cfl does the trick, why spend the extra money!!!!
