i just found out from ez clone and other sites
they say no organic ph up or down it DRIFTS ph too much (which i use).
and you need to set it lower 5.2 cause it will go higher in the first 24-48 hrs to 5.8-6.3 aprox and use ro water or tap ..no distilled it dosent have good results.and rez temps around 70-72.
and keep checking the ph .
anyone got insite to any of this?

It is actually what the EZ Clone designers suggest. R&D cats told me just use tap water and a rooting gel and screw temps. Its no longer about low temps, they said that was the old school of thought with them... they did suggest a root gel thats water based like Root tech tho.

this is the ticket here . I use a diy cloner r/o water dip clones in clonex gel place in neo. insert and in six days roots 100% root formation ( its when I take them out that I might kill the .LOL ) also it seems to me that warmer temps work better like softens the cut in prep for roots JMO

Tap water has PH buffers, RO water doesn't. It'll hold PH longer. Also, it has a small amount of nutrients that RO doesn't. When your plants finally do get roots, they don't want to starve, the small amount of 'food' in tap water is preferable to starving.

Aren't low temps because a certain root mold/fungus thrives @ 73+ or something? My last run of ezcloner only produced 5/19 spots, the rest developed some brown/black mold/sludge that killed them. That run did occur during a heatwave though, I'm attributing it to that.
Switched to grodan cubes because they're supposed to be easy too, but somehow I'm fucking that up... going to go back to ezcloner I think.

You can’t get the original pink panties genetic unless your in sherbinskis inner circle. But he did team up with humboldt seeds and create a strain called lingerie which is pink panties x 3 kings blueberry headband. It’s a nice strain.
