Maybe A Stupid Question

alright if I start some clones or seed in a daisy cloner how would I remove the net pots from the roots? Do I just transplant the net pot also and let the roots bust out?

Thanks

Come on no one can answer I know I'm not the only one who has wondered this I mean taking the basket of seems logical but it would be impossible to remove. It may be common sense to just move the whole thing but how would that allow the roots to get bigger longer makes sense but bigger? I need some help please the search is still not working for me what do you all do?

I dont seally have any experience with this but it does seem logical to take the net pot off. Maybee you just cant let the roots develop quite so much so u are still able to remove the pot. Again i really have no idea, but i would like to find out a good answer. Hopefully someone will come along

Thanks I have been searching google and other forums with no luck it seems most people start em in the machine they finish em in? Not me tho someone help please I am even open to anyones suggestions. Its so hard to not let the roots grow that big just during the work day I swear there was 50 new roots they grow fucking fast!

Hmm maybee i should get me a cloner, i been using reg old peat pots and it takes forever to root.

yeah well I transfered some 9 day old seedling into it and within 48 hours there were 8-10+ tiny litle roots. and that was bootled water and some atami/B'cuzz root stimulator

AMAzing! Is it just running with plain water or some kind of solution?

i edited my post water and root stimulater

what is it... ? a 2 inch net pot? leave the clone in it, who cares.

what type of system are you running? what are the details?


You can take that 2 inch netpot and throw it into a 3 inch or 5 inch netpot, OR, you could throw it in soil, I dont really see how it matters one way or the other.the roots will be fine, and they will find a way. I have a tree that's roots are lifting and cracking my garage foundation in half, I dont think a puny netpot is going to discourage roots from getting bigger or branching out.

how's this grow going? did you leave them in the netpots? I believe you will see that alot of roots will come out of that little netpot, plenty to supply a 5 or 6 foot plant with the nutrients that it needs.

You don't even need to use netpots with aero cloners.

Sorry Yak I got involved with the grow. Well I have 4 JockHorrors and 2 of em I cut some roots and removed the netpot like a dipshit and the other two I waited till I googled for a couple of hours and just moved the 2" netpots to 6 inch netpots with hydroton the two I cut are two days cut and looking better they have roots coming out of the pots only like 3-4 but they are white thick roots. I have some Durban Poison seedlings that Ill do 1000% the right way thanks for the help Yak! I am going to do a journal but I am lacking some proper lights, ph/tds/ec meters and, CO2. I have the CO2 setup just lack the time to set it up.

I have a custom aeroponic setup that utilizes netpots and I just leave them alone. The roots find their way arount the net. There is really no benefit to removing the netpot, but there is a downside: you may cause too much stress to the plant. My 2 cents...
