You can even start them out on a low ppm solution (200-250ppm is a good range) and they may pop those roots even faster. Start them on a low ppm hydro-appropriate vegging solution (include that Cal-Mag & something with micros), start at about 250ppm and work your way up.so nearly all my cuts popped roots at day 14 on just plain old tap water. im on day 16 now and wanna run some clean water thru here for an hour or so then get these babies on some kinda nute schedule. i havent found any posts on cloning and FF nutrients, im thinking 200 ppm of cal mag,150ppm of grow big and a pinch of ZHO and open sesame . i have no idea what to feed these tiny little roots:bongsmi:
Don't do it in the cloner, I've read of too many people who get brown gunk built up using it. After transplant, that's when you should use it, in my opinion.and im gonna try some roots excell next time to see if it really helps
Also, I like to keep my cloner on a 15ON/30OFF schedule, as it really helps speed up post-transplant recovery. Let their roots get long enough to hit the bottom of the pot and they'll absolutely TAKE OFF.
BTW, good work! Glad you got the leakage sorted out.
420, Seamaiden is talking 15 minutes on and 30 minutes off..........you can get a timer that does that at Home Depot for $5.
i use a 300 gph pump in a cloner way bigger then yours (50 gal 2 x 4 tote). it isnt ideal but it works. I'm going to upgrade soon though. i would think this would work but the more pressure the better! these cheap pumps don't handle the back pressure well thus the low max head on most. because of this you need one with a gph flow much higher then you would think you need.
