They DO!!! I have 3 or 4 of them....won't buy any other brand.
I generally did 3 gallons in a 15......I find 1 gallon per 5 gallons is a pretty good general rule for plants that are pretty dry

I just found this journal!
When using a bubble cloner, before you transplant you want roots like this:

Thats the kind of root system I was talking about in Doc's thread. I let mine get even longer sometimes.

Also I didn't dig out the transplant hole much more than normal. I just let the roots curl up in a mass in the hole.

My cuttings look like they are dead before the roots get that long. Or sometimes the roots seem to just stall out.

These have been this size for almost 2 weeks.

I'd plant that one. It's fish bone roots are ready. Imo
When I used my aero cloner, fishbones was my signal to plant.

All these little ones have made their debut except 1 of the Krumpets. That one is just below the surface though so should be here tomorrow.
Happy plants!
Wow Magoo, your plants have a great vibrant color!
I experimented with 1 clone on my last batch. The clone had maybe 6 or 8 roots 4 inches long, I cut the bottom inch of roots off and within 2 days they fish boned like crazy. Maybe a coincidence but I will be trying on again.

All 14 seedlings have sprouted and were put into solo cups tonight. Don’t want to wait forever to get them into the ground so hopefully 2 weeks will be enough in the cups to get some roots going.
With cloners you want to be sure to keep the water cool. Not cold but under 70 if you can help it. Also did you add anything to the water to stop it from growing pathogens? One of the other things I always hear people mention is having to clean the piping and nipples in their systems really well after every use or they just will not perform the same. When I used mine I had consistent results with just using a chemical to keep the water clean. No clonex on the ends and nothing else in the water. Within 2 weeks I would usually have decent enough roots to plant.

Good morning Magoo. Hey what's your process for seed starting in the plugs? Did you presoak them or soak plugs in clonex solutionAll these little ones have made their debut except 1 of the Krumpets. That one is just below the surface though so should be here tomorrow.

I usually soak seeds in water for about 24 hrs give or take. Sometimes they crack in the water. If they are cracked I just go ahead and put them in the plug. If not I put them in wet paper towels overnight and they will usually be cracked the next morning. Then in the plug.
I take little pieces of the plug and put them on top of the seeds to give them something to grow through. I think this helps with the seed shell coming off a bit easier. They are usually up within a couple days. I keep the plugs in a propagation tray with a lid under a small seedling light. Once the taproot is out the bottom of the plug then I put them in a container.
These new babies I just put in some miracle grow organic compost mixed with added perlite in solo cups. Not a big fan of anything miracle grow makes but I hope that it feeds them enough that I can just water only until I transplant them. Might be too hot....hopefully not though. We’ll find out together. Lol.
they look like they have grown some today which is a good sign.
