Here r bunch of my questions on cloning. Can I use peatmoss or coco-coir or enriched coco based mixes as cloning medium instead of rockwool? ( I dont have access to rockwool right now). If i can use these mediums, should i mix it with perlite? Should I water the medium in the beginning days? Or just mist the leaves and let the medium be? When should i start spraying fertilizer instead of pure water on the clones? What should the water/fert PH be? Any tips are appreciated.
You can use both mediums but likely to have a lesser success rate. I like to use Rapid Rooters to clone. You can soak your rapid rooters in diluted formulex before you plant clones in them and also with rock wool. Bare in mind tho shake out the excess from them as they dont want to be sodden. Again, spray formulex until you see new growth and obvious root growth, i usually just use formulex until new growth is plentiful.
what is the PH of your medium/solution? here in my country the only available thing is rooting gel. I was thinking of using that. Instead of formulex can I use diluted pk fertilizers? or should I use tap water?(with what PH?)
I use a bubble cloner similar to a DWC bucket with 1/16th strength Bloom nutes and it’s set and forget for 10-14 days and I have roots. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
