thanks thundercat, and stinkbud for your replies, im on my way now to fix my dryness issue and was told that orange kush and white widow are avail in seed and 3rd strain unknown at this moment avail in clone, yeepeepp! I will post up when I get back.
stinkbud you answered my questions perfectly, now I have one more, how do I subscribe to a thread? and how do i give you guys rep, i dont see the button for rep.

dirthawker, he just pops up a cup to look in there, and the roots can take a lil light but dont over do it.

I take the 2"-4" cuttings and place them in the Neoprene sleeves and into the 2" netpots. No spraying, dipping or anything! Just stick them in the cloner and your done.

My cloner is homemade. I have a 100% success rate with this system. I use tap water with 150ml of Clonex clone solution although no rooting hormone is actually needed. It does root a little faster with the solution.

The cloner is running on the same timer I use for all of my Aero setups. 1 min on and 5 mins off.

The clone system is under a 24", 2-light, HO fluorescents.

I use EZ-Clone sprayers for everything. I run a 396 GPH pump for all the systems also.

Use an 18gal. Rubbermaid Ruffneck container for your clone unit. Everything else will leak! Trust me on this, I've tried them all.

1/2" PVC pipe is used for sprayer assembly. Use an 11/64" drill bit for the sprayers. Just screw the sprayers right into the PVC pipe.

Check out the plans for a more detailed example.

so are you using the same as the diagram also? without the elbows , just straight pvc with caps at the ends? In the diagram you show to use elbows , but your actual pic differs, do you have pics of the actual plumbing in the cloner itself?

I believe it has the elbows, but from the top view it just looks like end caps. Probably a pain to photoshop elbows from the top view.

Nice little closet! What are your approximate dimensions? I'm getting ready to build a similar setup. I assume its ok to have the veg and clone systems in the same room, same light?

So ive been a busy little elf the last few days. I built this cab to hold the clones and the plants in veg. Its got a t5 and a dual strip floro. Im just waiting for my timer to come and then i will go and pick up the clones. I have a nice variety to choose from ..AK47, gf cheese, purple kush, GDP, trainwreck, og kush and many more. At least i will have 6 weeks to build the flower room after i get the clones.. what do ya think?

Thanks for the info! I think I am going to rotated the roughneck buckets and build mine as a 3'X3'x6', then I plan on running a 400w mh probably at 18-6. Still working out the details of the flower chamber but I figure I have some time!

I've read that 18/6 will increase the odds on getting females, I don't know if thats true, but like torrey said, "if it isn't broke don't fix it".

yea but he has seperate cabs for the clones and the veg plants.
mine are in the same cab. he says 24/7 for clones and 18/6 for veg...so he said i should do 20/4 but i wanted some other opinions.

If stinkbud suggested it, then I doubt that its inaccurate information. He seems to be very informative. If thats how your set up then give it a try.

Ive heard that if you go 24/7 from clone to the flower room they take longer to start to flower. and that they need 6 hours of darkness in veg or they could die.

wheres stink?????

some of the clubs i go to have some wierd shit to say too... i think the faq covers 24/7 lighting...and im telling you from personal experience that i dont buy it. None of my plants ever have died after it rooted... Well wait... the dwc fiasco with the root rot... anyway... not cause of the lighting damn it....hehehhee

so i still cant decide what to do with my new clones? should i just put them on 24/7? and when they get big enough for veg, take cutting from them and keep it all on 24/7? since they will all be in the same cab?

dude i just saw your pic of the cab witht he aero cloners in them...thats you right?... you know stink is gonna be pissed your jacking his thread...lol.. anyway.... the poblem with your setup is that youll have a 3 foot mother on one side and then a shit load of clones on your other side.... the problem is you have a single light source... so you have to move that up with your tallest plants... If you cannot designate another area that you can just put 3 or 4 cfls in for your clones... Im not sure if you thought this out... do you realize how many holes you have there?.... you must have a warehouse of a flowering room... lol..

Edit... See what this medication does to you... Your gonna be doing SOG style..lolipop stuff right... i need to tunr off my vape....lol

I dont think you read the entire process genfranco, like stink, there is no mothers, i just take cuttings off the 1ft tall veg plants and just like stink i have 23 holes in my cloner and 14 holes in my veg unit...the only difference is my cab is set up for both veg and clones, so the only thing im trying to figure out is what is the best light schedul for the both.

after 3 weeks the clones move to the veg unit (left side) and then when i take new cuttings they go in the cloner (right side) after 3 weeks in veg they go to the flower room for 9 weeks (coming soon). they go in the flower room no bigger then one ft tall.

If i need to raise the clone unit up when i have 1ft tall veg plants to get closer to the lights then i can just raise it up from the bottom.

bada bing bada bang bada boom,,,,,, my new clones are in and running ,,wish me luck.
