Lets talk AeroCloners

Her is all of the info that I have, this is over a few months of time. I have gone through four totes/cloners, the first leaked like the titanic. but no blue diamond. the third was the new stinkbud rough tote style with works well now, well doesn't leak. but no clones yet. The fourth was the same tote but made a new sprayer system with 8 180* sprayers and 4 360* sprayers. This has great coverage. With the new sprayer I added a flush valve to check the ph and ppm, just turn 1/4 turn and water. Easy Easy.
The tote has 28 2" holes + one for the valve.
I haven't seen any slim or alge, I did just by some h202 30% grade. I was going to add a bubbler but didn't think it was nessary. Maybe that is it, not enough oxygen.

strain???????????

you are using the timer right?

I bought one of the N-cap timers 60sec on 5min off.

try subtracting the h2o2

just use your plain water

and give it 7-14 days

I haven't used the h202 yet, just bought it last week. So just tap water, some times I put vb1. I have just about the whole line of AN and bought some power clone, that shit is pricey.

Its crazy, Ive read that this way takes less time to root. I need to get some clones like yesterday. Maybe its time for a drive. On a side note are most pot smokers over lad back and forget full? I mean I have been smoking for a few yrs now and I don't forget much of anything buy my buddies that say they will hook me up with some clones never come through. Shit I even told them I would buy them. Just me venting, iv been up to long and reading like mad.

Thanks

i mean really...all that shit isnt necessary. you can try it out with water.

however, you can use that shit since you spent money on it..lol hell thas what i do.

and btw... when im feeling froggy, i add some clonex clone solution or some canna rhizotonic and/or cannazym

i think i got a little regime going. however, water will do just fine.

not to sound redoundet but I just use tap water for the most part?
Should I change the water every wk, norm I just add water as needed as fix the ph.
I did have one that was in the cloner for at least a month and it just had a shit load of white bumps but no roots. it was like this for a while .

Thanks for all of your help LB

I remember the good old days when I would take a cutting and place it in a cube of sorts and ten days would pass and roots, roots, roots. hahah. ok I should sleep I feel crazy stupid... hahahahah

i have my timer set for 15 seconds ON, and 30 OFF. I get good results with it.

I use:

Tap water @ 200 ppm

1 airstone for an ezclone 120 (about 11 gallons of water)

half a cup of clonex clone solution.

and that's it. the temperature of the water makes a big diference too. I keep mine at about 72 and the PH at 5.6.

Oh yeah, sometimes I'll put a little H2O2 in there to keep the funk out since I only change the water in the cloner every 2 weeks.

anyone made or know of someone who mad a 120 site cloner. i make the 30 site ones easy but a 120 would be much bigger and was looking around for info.

I paid 369.00 for my ezclone 120. I know it's alot, but it doesnt leak, comes with a good pump, and an air pump and all the fittings.

I've made 30 site cloners too, pretty simple. But when you get into these giant tubs, they're bigger than they need to be, and leaking is always a possibility, it's difficult to find one that for sure wont leak.

if you have the money (and I know a lot of us dont) then I suggest just spending the money for a manufactured one.

either way... good luck with the build.

Thanks Yak,
I think I will put a air stone in and see how this helps. How long before you got roots?
If the water gets to warm, in the higher 70s I know that I can use a 1l container with ice to drop the temps but that only works for so long, any other suggestions? Do you think the clonex makes the difference??? Thats the only thing I don't have.
I will keep you updated.
Thx

higher temps are fine with cloning

Has anyone compared using an aerocloner with airstone vs. without airstone?
I've never used one and was wondering if it is worth my trouble?
I've personally found that using an airstone in my Ebb and flow reservoir promotes more algae growth and thats about it. Mind you if i'm using H2o2 is supplimenting air just redundant?
I'm really up in the air about airstones.... also very very very high.

heyman th ezclone come with amillion air airstone...
when the water temps are higher the O2 levels fall, so adding the airstones adds extra O2.

what nutes are you using in your ebb n flow to get algea w/stones?
