Hi I've been having a re am hard time cloning gorilla. But I have no problems with other strains. Such as ak47 and sleestack.. Anyways I've only been able to get like 2 clones out of like 50 in a diy aeroponics. I've tried two cups on top of each other. I notice they take a lot longer than other strains. I also dip it in cloned gel. Any suggestions on what s the best way to clone gorilla. Here's a pic of my gg#4 at like 40 days

Hey jmk18, I was having that exact problem with GG#4. I got 1 out of 50+ to live awhile back. Saddly I lost the battle and was wrecking my brain over the loss. I had a friend talk to me quite a bit and tell me to calm down and everything would work out. They even suggested a few cloning techniques to use in the future. 1 was a Clone King, which I read you have a diy aero cloner, and another was the lil amazon (which is like a rainforest in a domed container that your cuts will love).

I can only pass off the same advice that my friend gave me. Take a step back breath, you got this. Clean your cloner very good and make sure you are taking cuts off a healthy mom. Try the lil amazon it works (from a member on here, they can explain it in very good detail, will ask them to check this thread out). Hope your luck changes soon and you get some nice healthy clones, take care 1

I just don't understand it because any other strain will clone fine.. Do u have a link for that dome thing on amazon. Here's one I just flowered out. The smoke is amazing

usually 18 days to root, not the fastest but not the hardest to clone.

in 60 days from cut I have huge plants, ready to flower.

Hey jmk18, no I don't have a link its not on amazon. Its called "The Lil Amazon". A seed tray with a humidity dome will work fine for it. I hit up my friend and asked them to check out this thread. Sorry I have to go but I will check back on this thread tomorrow and assist you. Hopefully my friend stops by by then. Take care 1

P.S. Nice looking plant and buds.

I just took a few cuts myself, popped them in my old EZ-Cloner and just waiting for now.

In the EZ-Cloner, I put 4 gallons of water & 1/4 tsp of calcium hypochlorite (pool shock). I let it sit running for a few hours to clean then dumped & refilled w the same mix. It's day 3 today and all looks good so far. If I see the clones begin to fade I'll toss in some GO Bio Root.

Wish me luck. Most of these clones will be given away.

Almost forgot to mention, this method worked well for me the last time I used my cloner (last spring) after multiple cloning failures.

I've had 100% success with gorrila clones ,heat mat, humidity dome ,root riots ,clonex ....roots in about 7-8 days . Ready for a solo cup in 10 . BTW I bought an ez cloner years ago after witnessing my cousin get roots in 4-5 days it was amazing. I had no luck with it tho and gave it to a friend , root riots always give me great results

Hey there - I've had great results with harder-to-clone types by giving the moms a spray every 3 days or so with something like Algamic or Rootamentary. Do this for the two weeks prior to taking your cuts and that should really speed up rooting. You can also water the moms with root stimulators like the Rootamentary or Rhizotonic for this two weeks prior and get them primed for rooting.

I use Snype's cloning formula and get 100% most of the time. It basically kicks ass.

per gallon:

2 ml GH micro
3 ml GH bloom
6 drops Superthrive
6 ml calcium hypochlorite solution (1 gram pool shock mixed into 1 gallon of water)

Resist the urge to tweak this recipe. It is perfect. You can bring temps up to 80F without problems. Do a search for more details on Snype'e formula. Note that this is a sterile technique; adding anything 'bio' is completely pointless as the pool shock will just kill it.

Hey jmk18, guess i'm a little late. roughcountrybul's method is basically the same thing, just remember to put some water in the bottom of the tray so that the heating pad with make it humid in there. Also take the top off several times a day for air exchange. Hope this helps and GL with your cloning. Take care 1

The main question should have been is GG#4 even worth cloning.
