cloning machines

[lurch]

just wondering if anyones heard anything about or ever used a cloning machine for taking clones. they use rootless aeroponics spray mist and are fine to use in hydroponic or soil gardening. they reckon they are a 100% success rate in 5 days!!

[Shithappens]

5 days ain't that special as you should have roots in 5 days just with many different ways you cant see them till they breach your medium for your clones

 

folliage + scissors + some rooting hormone + some water + medium = cloning machine

 

Unless they take a branch and do it all for ya and spit out rooted clones i would say save your money and do some self sourcing for what you need

 

but if you are offering steak knives i could be convinced!!!

I take it itsa system and not a machine aye?

 

Have to be a sophisticated bit of machinery to take a cutting in the right spot, hormone it and suspend it in a system like you mentioned.

Sounds like the begenning of an urban myth.

I do believe you are talking about an aero cloner

[lurch]

it doesn't take cuttings or anything you put cuttings in it and it has an air pump a water pump and sprayers an aeroponic system made for puttings clones in

[bufo marinus]

I dare say if you did a search here you would probably find a thread on aero cloners?

Cloning tray and rockwool cubes are maybe a little easier?

I think what your aiming at with the aero cloner is basically having bubbling water bursting just below the net pot to provide a fine mist.

yeah thats what im talking about has anyone had experience with aerocloners or what, or is it easier to use rockwool and a humdi dome

[thc24]

i just bought a aero cloner alot of cleaning needed, makes a bit of noise, can be too humid and i got more yellowing and purple stems than i do in a normal crib but rooted as fast if not 1 day faster than normal.

 

I got 90% rooted clones in the aero in 6 days roots wernt as fluffy or as many as in the normal cloner using rock wool.. really only got one or two roots in first days and plant wilted when i removed the crib i dont normally get this with the standard type cloner.

 

Being my first run with the aero im sure i didnt use the cloner to its fullest, rock wool isnt recomended but that is what i used probally causing the overwatering.. the few clones i did mediumless looked good until about day 5 when they also started to yellow and new foliage either burnt or moisture related damage.
