Everybody? I've been using aero-cloners for decades and talked to dozens of people who use them and none of them use domes. In the last few years I've seen the dome thing. Commercial ones are not even sold with domes so I don't know where it came from. No rooting hormones either. Why dip them in something that is going to wash off? The most common "debates" I've seen over the years are timing (pumps on 24/7, 15min/15min or 1/4 etc) straight water or pH and water temp, weak nutrients or none, but to be honest they all work. There used to be a guy on overgrow, who really introduced everybody to the first DIY cloners; DCyans I believe was his name. Anyway, he did a ton of runs because he also sold his DIY ones. If I remember right, low end pH with slightly warm temps rooted the fasted, but the trade off was the risk if you weren't sterile in your methods. Like people have mentioned, you can treat for that too. Lower temps take longer but is safer. 4 days one way or the other really.

Alright for sure brothah.. thanks for the time.. I’m gonna try some in all ways and keep the dome off as long as the rooms 70%’ish then there’s no need really.. and as for the Clonex Purple Syrup.. I’ll try with out it.. yah ma again for yah time.. salute’chee

So don’t use the rooting gel right? And I guess after they get dipped and set.. might be good to swap that water out huh..?
