I properly cut the clones using guidance fro. 3 different videos and 6 articles. They were all consistent with how to properly cut the clones and at which location. Tell me if you think it's a good job. Thanks !

Greetings, they have multiple videos for cloning? Ok. Didn't think they needed those. Bless the yo tubes of the web's.

IMO they are fine. I cut mine shorter and right below a node at an angle while in water, stops air bubbles in the stem. Roots are coming from node knuckle area.

I also cut leaf tips so the plant focuses on roots and not fans.

On youtube. I just didn't want to make a mistake. I'm a newbie. I want to learn things not hurt them lol. The one drooping accidentally came out the cupling and rapid rooter. When I look on the bottom where I wish boned it. It looks slimy? I cut it a bit and added hormones. It is the only Lyn one I added hormones too. And it was just now because it accidentally fell. Is the slime normal though ? I cut to the tips ? Should I cut more ?

Just tips is fine, like 40% is where you want next time. Minimize cuts to plants/ clones, they are already in enough stress.

Slime is never a good thing. You using a cloner or what? If a cloner then water is too hot or stagnant. Nvm saw rooter part. Slime in rooter means it was too wet for too long in there.

Cool, do you have a solution ? Please. I have them sitting in a tray over Hydroton in a pool of water. Should I remove the water. I mean I filled the empty tray with at least 1/2 gallon. I can pH it from the amount that is there. Should I flush the water out and allow the clones to sit in just the plain Hydroton on the empty tray ? The slime and wetness could be due to it sitting in a swamp lol you tell me idk

I dip the cubes / rooters in pH'd, seaweed, water, give a shake after I take out and put them in the dome and only add water when they start looking dry.

Looks good. You can stray from the videos.

Remember how grandma took cuttings and put them in water?

I cut clones and soak over night in kln rooting solution and put in dirt.

That's actually what gave me the idea, my aunt would ass her rose clones in water then switch them over to her soil. Idk I guess I could do the same, but I, dumping the water out. I didn't add any hormones except for one. I read it's not needed. Should I pop them out and add hormone to all of them. I have this clone gel from technaflora
