No, the leaves you cut won't grow back. But will be fine.
Cutting leave is usually done to control transpiration when cloning in rockwool or rapid rooters & the like, not really necessary with an aero.
Listen here Bob! Hahaha I turned my cfl and led on, now the temps right at 78⁰ rh is 99%.

Not touching them for 2 weeks. 14 days! Except to spray them or water them.

hey CC,
here is why I suggested using RR's over dirt/cup, you know when they have rooted without digging or guessing.
I had some 6+yr old RR's, took a few cuts Sun. when you started this thread, here they are this morning.IMG_0496.jpg

lol...no winning my friend.
cup o' dirt/ rapid rooters, rockwool, aero...they all work.
try them all & find what works best for you .
I just think Aero or Rapid rooters work best for starting out/learning cloning.

Question, the instructions say use the razor flush with the stem is that how you did it? Cause I’ve been checking and no sign of roots but it’s keeping them alive!
How many days have they been in the rr? Did you use any rooting additive?

Have rootech gel coming this week debating on what cloning method to use. I really want to put soil in some solo cups, cut my clones dip in the gel and put them in the soiled solo cups. I dont have a dome to put them in. I have rapid rooters and nutes and everything.

So I have
Nutes
Solo cups
Heating pad
Plant to take cuttings.

Would you guys mind giving me some tips? (No homo)

Now you guys know what I have to clone in, how should I clone?

Cut clone, gel, put in rapid rooter, put in soil? Idk!!!
What I do...

Cut the clones, trim at the 45 degree angle, throw in Clone King, walk away.....literally.

Keep an eye out for too much light, transplant 10-12 days later.

You won't regret purchasing one.

I've been having good success in Grodan's rockwool cubes. Might not be as easy to find as Rapid's though.

I've been impressed with how uniform my cuts have rooted in these things.



These guys have lots of articles on cloning. Most of it is related to aero cloners/bubble cloners but a lot of the techniques can be applied to other rooting medias. Such as temperature, cleanliness, how to prepare moms etc.etc.
