Keeping it clean is a must! I get 100% with my 60 site ez cloner. Clean clean clean!
I've done that AND used rubbing alcohol AND Physan 20, have yet to find success in my homemade cloner anymore. I've ended up going back to perlite. What I haven't done is treat with antibiotic to see if that can do the trick. I tried to find Pool Shock as outlined in another thread, but all I can find locally is another form than what was mentioned. (I'm drawing such a huge blank on that right now.)I used to clone exclusively with aerocloners, specifically the powercloner from Botanicare. Sterilization is the key. You have use hot water and bleach between cleanings. Take the neoprene collars and throw them into your washer with bleach as well.
Use a cloning solution plus botanicare hydroguard. Make sure the water temps are between 70-74 (ambient temp). I was seeing approximately 90% strikethrough rate before we switched back to rockwool plugs.

Hey bro. I hate to see people struggle with clones. I'm going to just give u the easiest no fail method. Not saying it's the best but can't be any easier. Get ur self some Coco. Do the whole rinse with Phd water and a little cal mag. Cut ur clone use some gel powder or whatever solution u want if u want Cuz u don't have to. Stick ur clone in the Coco. Use a dome or not. Just keep the Coco moist and in a few days to a week u have a healthy thriving clone. Never ever lost a clone. Some bros on here can attest to this method as well. Good luck.I've had a bunch of colones in it for 2 weeks now, and only one of them has one littly bitty root. It's been getting worse and worse every run, so I officially give up. But I have a problem... I have a good amount of cuts in the system and don't wanna lose em... Can I take em out of the cloner and throw em in rockwool w/o issue?
Thanks in advance.
Are you running the ex clone 24-7? Everyone I know uses them with a timer, put the pump for 15 on 15 off works amazing
I'd say that's exactly what u should do. Tap water and maybe some rapid start. Did u always clone with teas in the Aero cloner? Used to Aero clone myself and never did it that way. It would make me nervous. Well Coco is easier but if u must use an Aero I'd go back to just water. Good luck either way though bro.maybe try no teas and just plain water until roots are formed then add bennies or dyna bloom.
