ok so they got cut put in some water for a minute.cut the stems at a 45 degree angle then saturated the stem in some clone solution then put in the root riots.

what are the general times of clones rooting ? + rep for all answers

In root riots- you want to keep them damp, but not dripping... and warm with high humidity.

If you do not have a humidome- you can make one out of a 2-liter bottle (one per clone)
Remove the cap & label & wash it out well... cut it in half around the middle, and make a 1" slit in one side of the top half.
Put a tablespoon of water mixed with clone solution in the bottom and add your clone.
Carefully slide the top 1/2 back on and place it under a CFL in a warm area.

Depending on what strain it is and the health of the mother it was cut from-
it can root in anywhere from 5-20 days (to where you can just barely see root tips comming from the root riot)

Open the humidone daily, water with clone solution mixed with water as needed-- don't let the rooter dry out- but don't drown it! And if there isn't any condensation on the inside of the humidome- it is probably too cold! ;)

great info they are damp but not dripping i cut them 2 days ago and have been opening and spraying with mineral water i will switch to ro water with some clone solution diluted in it and keep them at no more than 80 degrees and yes they are in a clear plastic tub with a lid and i sprayed the **** out of it so the humidity in there is 99%

There ya go! Just keep a CFL over them-- and they should be rooting in no time!
And don't forget to open the bin a couple times a day to 'refresh" the air inside! ;)
Have fun- and good luck on your grow! :D

my NL13 cutings rooted in 7 days, about 2" of roots in a cloner machine, 24/7 6500k 2-4't8 bulbs, 78* water heater-basement grow, (regent a root stimulator-10ml, 5ml of h2o2, 6.5ph'd water changed every 3rd day). i started my seeds in starter plugs and worked great. im also putting the rooted clones into 4" pots on sunday.

I clone the cheap and questionable / slow way... I wait for mom to have tons of good spots... I then could trim her from a couple of foot to having only two effing branches left with a couple leaves lol. But all i do is fill Styrofoam cups with water, cut at angle using sterile razor, then scrape about half in to full inch of bottom epidermis off, dunk in water right after the cut, and leave in few inches of water for , hell some time WEEKS untill they have a full blown small root SYSTEM going, (not just one tiny thing sticking off, i wait for the spider webs), then simply plant in soil, and treat it like a seedling... i mist them once in a while, have yet to use a humidity dome, and most of them survive, this method has been used for thousands of years, its not difficult at all.

Like i said above, doing my method, i can plant in soil between 2 weeks and a month. and i take shit tons of clones, cause some, will probably die for whatever reason. HAVE FUN. :)

the less livly ones, i just kill, they take too long to recover to make it worth the while... right now i have about 25 clones vegging in small cups, about 1/10 th look like shit and will probably pull the plug. lol

My clones were healthy and developed great root systems, they started showing roots in around 7-10 days, I had no idea what I was doing so I didn't use a humidor or anything like that, but it was a clone machine so maybe I didn't need to use one, who knows, good luck, keep up with the thread.
