Cheap Homade Dome Cloner - Growroom Designs & Equipment - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

I built this little dome to save on room in my veg closet.
I bought some Glad storage containers.
I cut out the centers of the lids and glued the together.
I then snapped it together and and put in some clones.
This unit works great, and it was built for under 5 bucks.

Cool... same as using a 10x20 tray and a dome lid but smaller, no?

Very cool design, I like a stoner with a working brain, bong salute.

I just set the top dome on, I don't seal it tight.

thats smart thinking, nice job

one concern that came to mind is the rockwool sitting in water, i found that when I used rockwool it needed to be wet but not soaked to get best results, not saying they won't root for you, but stem rot may or may not be a problem that you could encounter. keep us posted on how they do

I never use rockwool, those are Oasis cubes. I only use Oasis cubes.
I have never had any problems with them sitting in the water as you will see.
Oasis cubes have a small amount of nutes built into the cubes, so rooted clones get some nutes from the cubes too.

I do the same thing I just buy 2 large food containers and stack them.

And they say that stoners are dumb people with fried brains and no motivation....

Great idea. I've been starting to look into this whole cloning thing more...

People may say its not necessary,but I've found when cloning under a dome the most important thing for the first 7 days is to mist the inside of the dome frequently.Sometimes,especiall y if its cold and I'm using a heating pad,the inside of the dome dries out quickly in just a couple hours and needs to be remisted.Keeping it well misted the first 7 days will probably knock a few days off as opposed to very little misting,RH is more important than light when rooting cuttings
