I used to be pretty hit or miss cloning, doing the rapid rooter, cloning gel, humidity dome & clipped fan leaf method. Tried soils, and seedling mix mediums. Got maybe 40-50% success rate.Hi folks yesterday night just finished taking some clones and today I was wondering what methods do you use to clone your plants and what kind of success rate do you usually achieve? ... I use rapid roots on a dome bubbler system and achieve almost a 80% propagation all the time. Usually one or two get sacrificed to the pot gods! lol ... Anyways always looking for newer and better ways to up my clone success rate.
Last year I ditched the dome, gel, and rapid rooters. I stuck 4 cuttings in jiffy pods with 40 year old rooting powder, and put them on a window sill, and 4 more in glasses of water after dipping the scraped stems in the powder.
Damn things all rooted! I only had space for 2, so I had to give 6 of them away. I'll be trying the glass of water method again this year. If I get a decent success rate I'll be sticking with it from now on.
