Cloning Experiment

Hiya smokeater.

Here is my little cloning experiment based upon Lembatoast's tried and true technique and the supplies I had on hand


1. Rockwool cubes were soaked overnight in a mixture of 12oz water, 1/4 tsp cloning liquid.

Usually I soak for 15 minutes. The cloning liquid label recommended 2-4 hours.


2. Cuttings were taken from apical meristems (on the diagonal). I this case, a Girl Scout Cookies in pre-flower.

Yes. My scissors are all sticky. I was trimming this morning.


3. Cuttings went immediately into the rockwool cubes. I don't use pre-existing holes. I went for a tight fit by pressing the stem into the rockwool.

4. Cubes and cuttings were placed in a plastic back, bag was inflated with my breath, then sealed.

5. I plan to open them up and breathe in new air every 2 days or so.


Smokeater, I'll mail you cloning liquid and rockwool cubes if you want to play along

I just started soaking the cube, I'm looking forward to this!
