Anyone us mega crop in their clone macine?

My clones typically root after a week. I had left my last batch in there for a month more. I just didn't have the times or supplies to mess with them. Never changed the water. They started turning yellow (like low N), so I tossed 1/2 a scoop in the water. Probably ~2G a gallon. That's a guess. I got to them a couple weeks later- they had greened up. Of course, I had a mess to deal with, because of the roots being all over the place. It did leave like a brown sediment layer on the bottom, but the pump never plugged. Just a tip for lazy people like me..... Lol

I've used it lightly like 150 ppm works perfect

The only thing in Clonex that your girls could need, is Indole-3-butyric acid. That's all. There are no other ingredients in it that can benefit a plant, a stem or roots.
Clonex in hydro is also useless. Because it will be washed off, and end up at the bottom of your system.

Besides that: let's say you use 10 ml of Clonex. This amount of Clonex contains just 0.025 ml of Indole-3-butyric acid (check the label)
Let's also say your cloner holds 2500 ml of water.
Then the ppm of Indole-3-butyric acid would be 10.
The amount that scientists found to be most beneficial for developing roots are different for different plants.
Most studies show a number of 1000 ppm and higher as most beneficial.
Although there are other reports (for chrysanthemum for example) that show some benefit for lower ppm's like 100.
But a ppm of 10 seems too low anyway.

You sound like a idiot


Clonex Clone Solution is a plant nutrient specifically formulated for rooted clones and seedlings. It contains a special blend of the highest quality minerals including Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Calcium plus other essential elements that all plants require for vigorous growth. It also contains Vitamin B1 which reduces the risk of transplant shock. Used with Clonex Rooting Gel or any other rooting agent, it encourages rapid root development while helping to minimize stress. Clonex Clone Solution is highly concentrated, unlike competing products. In addition, it contains specific micro nutrients and root enhancing agents, carefully formulated to initiate and nourish new root cells in plants.

Just why would u use the cloning gel like what the fuck are u thinking I have never heard anyone say that next level shit because that shit is pretty pricy to be using 20 ml a gallon

Sellers must be so happy with people who buy all the BS that their marketing people write.

Yes, Clonex does work. So does any rooting powder. The main ingredient is 0.25 or 0.3 % Indole-3-butyric acid.
That is what makes root grow faster, more, longer, thicker.
The rest of the ingredients are so little that they don't even mention them on their bottles.
That means it is negligible, otherwise they would have to name them by law (where I live)
Sure, their marketing people know that many people fall for the BS-statements made on their website.
But do you think there is any commercial grower (cannabis or other plants) that buys Clonex?
Clonex is largely overhyped and slightly overpriced.
GardenSafe Rooting Hormone does the same job. If Clonex would be so much better, faster, healthier... Commercial Growers would buy it by several 10 gallon drums. But nope, their main market are the home-growers in the cannabis society.
Commercial growers do use Indole-3-butyric acid.

20 ml of clonex per gallon?I only put 10

I was talking about 10 ml because you guys discussed this amount.

But let's say you dip your stem in Clonex and then put it straight in a cloner. Then there would be even less ppm of Indole-3-butyric acid in your cloner.
Let's say you use 1 ml in 2500 ml. Then the ppm would be 1.

I am not trying to convince you. Just giving my opinion so growers can make up their own mind.
Also no need to call someone an idiot, if one doesn't agree with you.
I also acknowledge that if something works for someone, this person will stick to it.
I would probably do the same.

I’m just throwing it out there buuuuuut honey works just fine too.

You do realize there's 2 types of clonex, the gel and the solution. The solution has ferts(NPK plus micros) in it and the gel is i3b.

I did know it, but did not read well enough.
