Buy gel form rooting hormones it works better than the powder form,cut 45 degree angle 3-4 nodes from the top of the chosen branch,scrape some of the "skin" around the cut exposing more area for roots to grow,apply rooting hormones,place in your medium of choice,mine being rockwool(for rockwool I soak cubes in water with 5.5 ph),jiffy pellets work well according to other people,mist,keep covered with humidity dome,100% humidity is vital for the first days,having a heat pad under them also helps considerably.Mist 1-2 x's daily,start to take dome off after 3-5 days, everyday,more and more frequently till it is completely off.I have 100% succes rate.There are other simpler methods but this works for me,all the time.

ok I got the Rapid rooters 50 tray and humidity dome but being my first time. heres my questions do you push it down into the rapid rooter pushing it through some of the material or just put it in far enough to sit loosely in the hole they poke in them?? 2nd as far as Misting can I use plain tap water to mist the dome provided the trays got dechlorinated water in it?? and speaking of the tray are you supposed to keep water in it for the cube to absorb as needed?? I've got mine outdoors in the shade with no direct sunlight for a heat source the AC keeps it too cold indoors and no heating pad available.also when inserting into the rapid rooter will the powder all come off when it's put into the cube??? it seems like it would to me especially if your supposed to force the tip into the medium until it is firmly in place. LOL I know I know too many Questions but I'm a perfectionist and I'm also worried about fucking up

If you have a fish tank just drop them in the filter. (Hang on the back filter)

These roots took 10 days. Notice how the clone is perked up and still dark green. 100% root rate with the strains I have tried.

i get 100% success rates. i guarantee this way will work. Get a tray of Root Riot cubes and clonex cloning gel. Cut you clones, dip in water. cut at angle right below a node. dip in clonex. let a little bit of the clonex drip off of the stem down into the hole your going to put it in. insert clone in the whole and push half to 3/4 of the way down into the cube. put back into tray and cover. mist twice a day. ive misted with ph'd water and with water mixed with jumpstart. both ways seem to work the same. roots in 10-14 days guaranteed.

Mist with Ro processed water or distilled water.Make sure rapid rooters are wet but not soaked always.I prefer gel form root hormones but if that is all you have add as directed ,insert in firmly into rapid rooter but not too far in and try to not to disturb any of the rooting hormones,if possible.I like to add perlite in the propagation tray with ro water to keep humidity level high,it is vital the first few days.

It looks like milk and is a 1 to 7 parts mix. I spray and then let sit till clones dry(maybe an hour). Youcan still use the dome if you'd like. My clones are in my flowering room so its hot in the summer and I use the dome so the cubes don't dry up to quick. The Vita will make it so your clones don't wilt, awsome stuff.




I can do about 50-60 clones with one mix( 8 ounces). I use rapid rooter plugs and Roottech cloning gel also.
