What you wanna do is scrape the side of the stem (scarification) using your scissors. You do that on the bottom half inch of the stem. I never used an aerocloner but I do know that warmer temps (around 90f) speed up rooting with rapid rooter plugs and the like, seedling heat mats work for cloning in 1020 flats using rapid rooters.

Heat is a double edged sword. It does speed things up a bit, but it also causes rot and other problems. Without heat you are looking at 12 to 14 days, a few days doesn't make the risk worth it.

Growing cbd outdoors so a few days on each set will get another batch outside. Licenses were just issued so it’s a real time crunch. I’ve been changing water every 5 days to deal with roots

Some of the clones started showing roots since my first post, day 6

Well you might change your mind when you lose a batch. Winter you can heat the water but this season you shouldn’t need it.
