Best cloning medium?

[Cannbosh]

Whats the best cloning medium to go into soil when ready, most people use rockwell but is that the best?

I just started using rockwool and I probably never will again. Rockwool sucks because it will not form properly around the stem. IMO you want it to be nice and firm around the stem.

i just stick in cup of water till i get roots (10 -12 days) then stick in soil , works every time .

 

[scroglodyte]

i clone directly to 6" pot of soil.

I personally think this is the best idea.

 

[pmumbry]

coco peat works well, good moisture retention...

 

[el throttle]

rapid rooters are the easiest in my opinion...but dirt works great too

Oasis cubes...

Oasis cubes...

Get out of here jim lahey you drunkin fuck!

 

[trichome fiend]

...an ezcloner, or make an aerocloner yourself....once you get roots, plant it in whatever you want.

Cut, Put into a cup of water and planted in soil when rooted.... Normally 7-10 days...

advanced nutrients and jiffy teamed up and made some bad ass rapid rooters, with them I'm 100% without I was below 80%

It's all preference... Depending on the layout of your room, what equipment you have, what applies to your skill set... you know... it's just what works for you.

I transplant into 3-5 gallon pots of coco and I love the Oasis Cubes. $10US gets 50 cubes. It is impossible to overwater and really easy to keep moist.

I think if all Hydro stores started giving out samples they would sell like crazy. I think most people just don't know about them.

Don't try to keep them in a nice sheet or anything... just break them off into individual squares and use. simple.

Give them a try and I bet you will convert. Use the Brown 1 1/2 cubes. 50 per sheet.

Ii find rockwell cubes soaked overnite in ph'ed(5.5) water work best for me.

I use water and a powder for rooting clones.Sometimes I get roots in 5 days sometimes 7.But they all seem to root somehow.Im new to using water to clone in,but I used to use rockwool with great sucess.But since Im working on going medialess in my grow I just usewater and neoprene plugs the first 7 days then when i change water I add some low level nutes,I usually have roots showing by then and the new roots need nurishment.
But mainly irs finding what works for you the best.
Good Luck

I just use pro-mix bx with rooting gel, a heat pad and humidity dome and I get over 90%. I don't see the point wasting money on rooting cubes and cloners when I got a bale of pro-mix that works just as good.

 

[squarepush3r]

Been using straight Jiffy 7 pellets (like from Home Depot) and had good success last run, also used heatpad and dome.

I got 100% success on only my second time cloning using RW cubes:

Tried Root Riot peat plugs the first: only got about 60% success. Peat plugs are too tough to keep moist.

Jiffy peat pellets work for me.
