Lmao, shed legend!LOL! That fancy schmancy propagator thingy is:
Building an aeroponic cloner bucket, aka The Cloninator!
How to build my cloninator aeroponic cloning bucket! This is the original but I've made a few modifications since then. I'll put those at the end in case you'd like to try them. I started with a 2 gallon bucket and lid from Home Depot. I got this pump from Amazon...www.420magazine.com
We on that bondage thing brother@Dope-Seeds GROUP UPDATE. THINNED AND TRIMMED
Hi all, these beauties are clicking along like they like it in there. I'm seeing no issues at the moment thankfully.
Today I gave them all a top water of a half gallon each. They were watered 4 days ago and were still pretty moist down low. It'll be a few more days before full water again. Some were ready for lst and trimming inner growth. I gave them a real "Shedding" if you know what I mean. InTheShed clears out unwanted inner growth the way I like to see it but I can seldom get in them to get it done well. I may have this time. It's a good day!
First is the Dos-si-dos in front. She's thin and trim. A nice plant to work with, not too many leaves and a nice structure to work with. I took off a bunch of everything that doesn't see the light and may need to do a little more at flip. Here's Dos-si.
Wedding Cake's weren't ready for lst today so I gave them a trimming. The rear one got supercropped, she's tall and thin.
Here they play nicely.
Happy Sunday!

Yeah, hope it stays!Man, that one looks like she rolled an ankle.
Shoot! I didn't! Oh now that I'm reading the small print, I'll wait for spring. Ms Otter has a sensitive nose. This is her house too

Yeah, probably best not to start off out of the gate with a bad experience. Gotta keep harmony.Yeah, hope it stays!

Our DSD's are very similar in structure. Great plant to work with I agree completely. Excellent training. So what's the very cool looking piece of equipment on the floor in the front of the tent?@Dope-Seeds GROUP UPDATE. THINNED AND TRIMMED

Carcass hit it. I traded for a dyson fan/humidifier. Fits the tent real nice.
bt = bacillus thuringiensis
Fungus gnats have a maggot life stage where bt interrupts. After 10 days they slow down to a point where there's no worry, and by next grow they should be gone. Safers was the co to get it from but they stopped making it. There are others who make it in powdered form, I'll have to look on the shelf if you need a name. In a 5 gallon pot I make a few stripes on top to inoculate and water it in. Probably a teaspoon or two.

Do they affect the plant in any way? I’m not infested but I am having issues.
They can effect roots adversely.
There are a couple different types.
The less invasive ones are more of an annoyance than a detriment but still not great.
Try keeping top of pot from staying wet and growing fungus.
Traps and fans.
H202 in water helps.
Diatomaceous earth on top.
Sns.
Lots of ways to fight them.
Stay safe

They can if they get out of control. Several members have had failed plants they say due to Fgnats. I haven't had them kill any but have gotten pretty thick. None in the tents lately but the bonsai mother got treated two weeks ago and has a fan on her soil too. They backed off a lot. I expect them to leave in a month or so.
How long do you grow them in the cups untill you transplant in final container. Myself I transplant from cups after the first set of true leaves

Hi safeman, I wait for them to need water every day or two.
If some1s interested in BT bacillus and wants to feed that beneficial bacteria, it is included in Botanicare’s Hydroguard in a liquid form. Hydroguard is probably more easier to find online or from hydrostores.
God tier beneficial for soilless growing and can be used in substrate growing as well
Let the roots fill the cup.
Old rule of thumb when leaves hang over the edge of the cup they are ok to transplant.
I like to fill the cup right up with roots.
So when you transplant they explode.
As Stone said , When they can empty the water from a solo cup in two days the roots are ready.
Check my Gorilla Glue clone thread.
I explain everything in there.
Transplanting, training, filling pots,amendments everything you need from growing babies to monsters.
Stay safe

Until they need water every day or every other day. That way there's lots of roots to get into the new soil. So no time really just until they need water that often. It's up to them.
Thanks very much --nice looking plants !
