I just wanted to share a tiny project I had going as I was curious after reading around
on the net about cloning and the best methods. I had tried rapid rooters, as well as diy
aero cloners and had good results but it was always 2-3 weeks before I could transplant
and I wanted to get faster as I had seen people transplanting in 7-10 days.
Using a rubbermaid roughneck small tote with neoprene collars, two airstones, and a
fogger(with float) I was able to get roots to begin development in just under 5 days.

I realize people had problems with the foggers raising temperatures, but I found that even
when leaving the fogger on 24/7 the temps stayed pretty consistent at 80* with a ambient
temperature of 82. I also made sure to use nothing but RO water in the reservoir as I had
also heard many complaints about the nutes in the water gumming up the fogger and then
it failing but I have not had any issues with it just yet. The only nutrient I used was a cloning
powder hormone that the clones were dipped in.
I also didn't use any form of humidity dome or upside down plastic containers, I would spray the
tops of the girls with some RO water once a day starting immediately after cloning.
I hope some others might be inspired to try the same, and can hopefully have the same great
results I've had so far.
I will update later with more pictures as the progression continues.
