I have a question and if anyone can help me with it that would be great. I am going to try to clone some fruit trees ( blueberries and plums)
and I want to try using a bubble cloner ( also some other methods but the bubble cloner is the subject of the question) . I want to try the pool shock that everyone has committed on in the pass few months but I can’t get the 73% locally 68% is what is available to me. I need a recipe and instructions for the 68% , I’ve never used the pool shock I have used a bubble cloner plenty though. I know it’s not weed and it may effect results but it’s just for fun and for the sake of learning.

All comments will be.....ok maybe not all but some comments will be appreciated.

I couldn't find the 73% either. Initially went with the lower percentage but pH seemed to drift quickly so I went with this.

I am using it and uv to run a sterile res in addition to cloning.

Iirc Tyler was using 2g of 73% per gallon then 10ml per gallon to treat the res. A %wt conversion gives 1.46g hypochlorite so divide 1.46 by whatever percent (in decimals) 1.46 ÷ 0.68 = 2.147 g

Trying to keep my berries under 5 pH I start with treated ro water and nutes and treat every several days when topping up, no uv in the berry res and it also is most neglected (over 60 days before change).

Filled up a tire on the Toy that has a slow leak and noticed that there was a puddle of fluid under it. Found that I hadn't tightened a hydro line for the power steering enough before I filled it. Put down some speedy dry and refilled the reservoir. Pork chops with Herbes de Provence and some fresh zucchini for dinner. Buds and suds in progress.

Fox, I guess it all depends on where your at.......the more people the less they want to be out. I've seen plenty of fox out during the day. We had a mom that lived 150' off the deck that came back every year and had new pups. She knew we where not a threat.........she'd sit and watch her pups play all day. A few years ago she got hit by a car and I haven't seen any close. Fuckin ground hogs live in the burrow and fuck up the garden. Miss the fox

We had a whole family of them hanging around the gravel pit for a couple a yrs. One of the loader guys, an older man, could hand feed the mom. She'd hop right up beside him at coffee break and again at lunch. The pups stayed back but mom wasn't even a little bit timid. They were like old friends.

Completely unafraid. She's so sweet.

Don't be sad for me, can anyone honestly say they want to trim a 6ft bush of this?

I also enjoy watching how this weed responds to different adverse conditions and can still put out 99% the potency and more flavor than a perfectly manicured plant. That and I have only been running hydro for 5 months so its not all intentional. 2 big lessons pH is king and shit happens fast.

Thanks man I appreciate the conversation, I was going to attempt to do the math but I’m really glad you did it for me .

Fruit trees are usually created by grafting not cloning.

Yeah graphing and layering I have done with mixed success, I was able to clone the plum last year but not the blueberries, I will read some more on the root graphing and see if I can improve on previous attempts.

Well that was useless.

@Bareback just use the 70% directions it will be close enough.

That’s what I was thinking but SSgrower gave me the conversation so I may try multiple single site cloners plus I’m trying nursery pots a couple different ways also. I don’t really need the extra trees, I am getting bored and just want to play around with it.


Thanks for all the help and advice!!!

Red flag warning, hope everyone is careful with any ignition sources.
* WIND...North to northeast wind 10 to 25 mph with gusts up to 35 mph.
* HUMIDITY...Daytime minimum humidities of 8 to 15 percent expected with moderate to locally poor overnight recoveries of 30 to 50 percent.
* IMPACTS...Any grass fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
