I use a DIY aeroponic cloner with a small 600 GPH pump in a tote with 2" drilled holes in the top for clone collars. It runs 1 minute every 20 minutes.Water is PH'd to 5.5 - 6.0, I throw in 1/4 rate jacks bloom, mg, 1/16 teaspoon of kelp, and 1ml diluted bleach all per gallon. Never use too much light at this stage 100-200PPFD, I get healthy roots around 12-14 days everytime.

Sorry to hear about your clone loss, lets hope you get some pollen for that old soul #6
nice i see it's all very cheap to buy from walmart, the 2'' colars too... so the pump is at the bottom makes like.. the water "boil" under the roots every now and then? how much space between the bottom of the clones stem and the water? and i'm i missing something? seems legit

There is a variety of solutions for misting the roots; you could use 1/4" tubing cut to size with inline misters suction cupped to the sides and running along the middle, or 1/2" tubing worked into a manifold with 360 degree misters (this is what EZ -Cloners use I believe), etc... I have about 2-3" in between the mist and stems. Pretty soon here I am going to rig something up with recycled containers (think 2lb yogurt bins), an 800GPH pump, 1/4" tubing with misters and have a glorified recirculating aeroponic system. Not sure if it will be for veg and flower or just clones, possibly even indoor veggies. I am much more keen to re-use, craft, then make more waste. I dont know if you have seen some results with high pressure aeroponics, but after letting some clones go for too long i can understand why people use them. I eventually want to run full aeroponics (less nutrients, less water, less soil mixing and no more filling pots gdi) but I am still doing organic versus synthetic trials. I will mention again that I run 1ml/gal of diluted bleach (1/4 cup/gal) in my cloning solution, before this if I neglected to change the water in a timely manner I would start to smell that classic fish tank bacteria. I have also used Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain D747 (Southern AG garden friendly fungicide) at 1ml/gal and this works, but it makes a nasty biofilm, as much as I hate bleach, I hate biofilm more.

Extra bonus points add on: I had some small (1" - 2") clones that were in a cloning chamber that had a clogged pump, so I hastily got the pump out and instead of fixing the issue that night plopped the clones in the cloning solution (the clone collars float, yay!) and to my amazement they all had root nubs after a couple days of sitting. I have put cuts into PH'd water, hormone water, kelp water, 1/4 rate nutrient water, oxygenated water, you freaking name it, and rarely if ever do I get roots from standing water. Its funny how sometimes we try so hard for a result, but then you do something that goes against conventional wisdom and get the same results (if not better). Nature over nurture?

Sun queen and space cake keepers. Sun queen smells real og with a peppery hint, and space cake is straight cookie gas. Both are very stoney.
Hell yeah! Thanks for sharing I have some sunshine queen going and wouldve had spacecake too but so far 9 beans have been duds. I got 2 packs so hoping the 2nd pack wont be a goner, I had spacecake back in 2016 and damn I can still smell/taste it.

Thank you for posting the picture of the Sunshine Queen. I have found very little information on this strain, but what I can find sounds killer. I have three on day 22 of flower. Here are two in 5 gal LOS. Pictures are from a couple days ago.B924DEE1-339A-4715-BD4F-AD8E5977ABFD.jpeg80C08780-FDF8-417A-BDA6-0783293C9E9E.jpeg
Here is the third (on left) with an Orange Wookie x 88g13 (on right) in 15 gal sips.

Can anyone provide any ideas as to which way these lean based on pictures? The leaves on the one in the sip are more narrow than the ones in 5 gals. Sunshine Queen= 3 kings x ssdd Hope everyone is well~ Crunch

I had a fair amount of luck this summer rooting clones from my outdoor plants by just stickin' em in cloning powder then straight into medium, no dome at all (after years of using an aerocloner). One thing that seemed to work really well that I picked up from a guest I heard on a podcast... rather than simply taking a few cuts and then trimming them down and removing lower leaf nodules, I stripped lower leaves off at the nodules on branches I intended to clone (i.e. stripped while still on the mother plant), waited a few days, then snipped. The guest who mentioned it was talking about the droop clones often get and how pre-trimming allowed the mother plant to easily absorb the stress rather than putting all that on a cutting. Early results seemed promising, YMMV.
Thanks for sharing this. I will also be doing this Everytime. Makes so much sense!

More Cowbell (OGKB Remix) - This strain has gone through 3 major terp profile changes. Ultimately one leaned heavy into a cookies terp with bike tire rubber upfront but is going much more toward the cookies side of the house. The 2nd pheno is an interesting woody/citrus with cookies mixed in. Early samples of both bring some serious flavor. I will be doing a preservation round at somepoint with the remaining seeds I have left. Crazy how this was a freebie pack and its been the most fire thing I have seen from Bodhi. I know im critical of the overuse of 88G13hp but in this case the OGKB and 88G13HP really did some magik.View attachment 5038954View attachment 5038955View attachment 5038956View attachment 5038957View attachment 5038958View attachment 5038959
I couldn't agree more. Love the Cowbell. I've been lucky enough to have all 8 I popped be females and all good quality. The first 6 I ran outdoor last season and really liked one that was had strong sour dough type terps but I sadly did not clone. I ran two more indoor that were nice also just a little too leafy to be a long term keeper. Every time you post I think of popping my last few beans I have.

Smart Move, day 45, wild structure. Genius Thai leaning I'd guess. Thoughts on OMG? Seems like an underrated dad and a psychedelic Himalayan strain Bodhi references in his pot cast.
havn't heard shit about the OMG dad either .. it's in a lot of less popular croses. ive never had the goji og pinesoul cut, but crossed with OMG seems like the cut is shinning all the way thru the dad, looks and flavor wise, from what i know. it's probably one of these males that's perfect to use to replicate the female?

I've grown Lucky God and Gorilla Ghani in both you couldn't miss the smell of OMG, for indica leaners both were heady.

I had problems cloning this time, i used dirty old rooting gel, kept the domes too moist, got mold, lesson learned

one clone made it and it's my favorite plant old soul #6 i keep talking about.. anyways, on day 14 this one showed 4 tiny roots, i transplanted right away in light soil, and put a transparent plastic bag with holes over it to acclimate it from the wet dome... it has to survive!!
you guys use cloning machines? domes with cubes? i can't be at my grow everyday, i need a dummy proof way to clone...

Glass of water on a heat mat at 80°. At least one node, scrape stem to the white, low light, change water about 1x/week. About 5 days to start showing roots. No domes, ever.

I've tried most ways. Soil, perlite,coco, vermiculite, root plugs, EZ Cloner, diy aero, domes of all makes and manners. honey, clonex, aloe... this has been the most sure fire, and by far the simplest.

i have taken cuts this time and put 'em ina cup of water, 11 days now no roots... the bottom of the cuts are brown now i don't know if that's ok but it doesn't look good... It's not on a heat mat tho, and it;s been a lil cold, i will put the cup on the heat mat right now! that sounds so awesome the way you do it bro. i love simplifying shit, thanks for the tip

I would clean those up and replace the water at the least.

Name changed back?
