Bad Clonex?

[bobrown14]

I've been popping seeds a lot lately. Good at that for now.

I'm tangling with some pesty aphid fvcks so taking cuts in down on the list for now.

I'm getting close to taking all my VEG plants outside and hosing them off in 30F degree weather.

I've had great success using the jiffy pellet pans with the humidity dome in the past and always used distilled water until the roots set in, then straight into the small soil pots from there.

I did use the rooting hormone though, as directed by my mentor...But it worked great and I didn't lose a clone doing it that way. Just sayin...

What rooting hormone do you use @420 Warrior

TBH it's been since 2008 since I bought that stuff and I can't remember what brand it was, but I do know I bought it from Lowes and it was in powder form, because that's all they had at the time, but it did work just fine for my cuttings.

Sorry I can't supply any more info than that.

Honestly, you'd actually be surprised at the pretty decent stuff you can buy from Lowes and Home Depot if you go through them looking for specific things like PH meters, pots, fans, peat pellets with the pans and humidity domes, rooting hormone and I even found some great little 24" tube style fluorescent grow lights there once that turned out to be perfect for clones and seedlings. I even used their miracle grow organic potting mix and had very good results with it. That being said, I didn't have much luck finding the best nutes so I bought Biobizz nutes online.

GA isn't exactly flourishing with hydro stores, so sometimes we've got to do what we've got to do to grow our weed. Most all my plants did just fine with the stuff I got from Lowes though.

As to provide a cautionary tale though, I bought some liquified worm castings from Lowes that I thought would do awesome, but I was so entirely wrong and it killed the crap out of my plants, so I'll never make that mistake again...It's way to hot for Cannabis plants.

Yeah I should know this ..... I forget more than I learn sometimes.

lowes and HD only place I shop for grow supplies local.

They have peat moss and containers even bought my first pair of trimmers from HD and dont forget the Homer buckets for bud washing and tea making. Won't leave home without em.

That's right, it's not hard once you've got a good system that works for you and you stick with it. You just have to dial in that system first.

Do you use the same Aloe from a bottle that you use when you get a sunburn? Or do you get it straight from an Aloe plant? I've never heard of that one before, but it sounds really cool if it works?

Fresh off aloe here is 45 clones I used aloe to clone them
