Using NFT system to root clones?

[East Coast]

NFT hydroponic system - Has anyone designed this system to also clone cuttings?

Like, cut the clone, place into the NFT system, run aerated water only till clones get roots...........fill reservoir with vegging nutrients, dump out, fill with flowering nuts.........a one stop system?

OR is there such a system available already?

You are describing my system exactly. You're still better off building a cloner for $50 and keeping the Aero/NFT system for flower.

Yup, word.
It would make for allot of wasted space/lighting.

47 days including rooting time ?

Yeah man

 

[skunkd0c]

Yeah man

Was trying to work out why they so small , is it a small strain, they look nice and healthy
but i would expect them to be that size at around 25 day total time from cutting
did you root them on 12/12 ?

 

[Jermb420]

The mothers of these are in soil... they started flowering 2 weeks before and now the clones have passed up the mothers

Yeah man

Should I root them 12/12

 

[skunkd0c]

They look nice mate, if you root them on 12/12 they will be even smaller
i think maybe its just your spacing and the genetics as to why they smaller, your plants look healthy

i got these two plants on the right of the pic @ 40 days , they rooted in 12 days no veg time 28 days 12/12 so far
they will be ready in 4 weeks, for a total grow+rooting time of 68 days from start to finish
