Excellent break down on how to clone plants in general! Thank you!
Hydroponics of Birmingham is my Store of Choice. The Staff and Owner are Hands Down the Best !!!
You had me thinking this was a weed cloning video for the first half.Some would say all of this is common knowledge; I learned what a internode was today. Great video
hahahahah same i thought thats a weed cloning vid lol
It IS a weed cloning video, only slightly disguised.
Love how you just got right down to business!!
Question.....do I need to shave during this process? It seems to have worked well for your plants. 🤘🏻♠️🤘🏻
Recently I found out that Azos added to your plugs will help feed those new roots instead of regular plant food. And, it's very important that you don't open the dome until they are ready. Otherwise you let out the moisture that is critical to those first few days of developement. And, too much water will drown your clones. You didn't mention that. I killed 100% of my clones in rockwool cubes bc I didn't squeeze the cubes after soaking. Fell right over and took a shit. Those premoistened brown peat plugs, like the ones you have, work the best. Had 100% success using those. Also, adding a little Root Excelurator Gold from House&Gardens will make your roots look like a body builder on steroids. Organic fertilizers are the best BTW.
Balls & Lights...😁😎👍 offering apologizes before wifey feel some type of way, bye guys keep up the good work
What was your dome process? Did you just leave the dome closed for 10 days ? Or did you open it and clean it or
Hard to believe farmers and gardners survived 1,000s of years without plastic.
Sadly most people think if it doesn't come in plastic packaging then it's not any good! Grow as mother nature intended for a sweeter product
hope the cloaning works out thanks for the tips Happy in Florida
Would love to have a conversation about this stuff with you
And I do have a question what's the average yield off of a it was 10 ft tall and would have taken five people holding hands to go around it😊
Hey please help me with this problem, on of my main branches snapped off what should I do
very good presentation, thanks!
Great video great content
Definitely a language i can understand & explained in its simplest form.
Oh...it worked also ty.
May I ask if you give any nutrients while in the dome, prior to transplanting?
I appreciate the video, thanks.
Nope
Do you keep these under a light 24 hours and what temp should the room be? Thanks
What about the vents? How do you open those and how often?
Thanks for video. How often do I feed .and do you use Feed to ur water thanks
Do you have a website??
Sweet I have this same kit I just need a higher dome and T5 reflector
Great video. Thank you.
maybe not so much with tomatoes, but one should always do as much trim as possible BEFORE the cut to avoid air getting into the nutrient transport tube. I do clone tomatoes over the winter but its just, trim, poke a hole in medium, and cut and push in the hole. Done, very very seldom lose any. I've thrown trimmed suckers on the ground and had them root.
Where can I buy that tray? I googled your store and it says permanently closed. Or what brand is it?
Should you use a heat matt under the dome
Great video
Roots are very prominent .. why leave them ? They need nutrient and they aren’t getting any from the tray ..?
Chris what is the difference using root rooter plugs versus rock wool cubes? Great video !! 👍
rapid rooters have a silicon like additive additive that keeps them sturdy and retain moisture a little longer than straight peat cubes and a lot longer than rockwool
This is a great vid u explained everything real clear thank bro
Do you use a heating pad for the clones?
Thank you sir for the good information I’ll be following 👍👍up
What growing on`?
How often do you open the tray to respray the leaves and how high do you hang your lights? 18/6 schedule? 🙏🙏
Couple times a day , open to get fresh CO2 , dont spray the plants , mist the dome, force the roots to extend to seek water, no nutrients in the water , talk nice to them , come on girls come for me
I use the aerogarden for cloning. Works great, I got it for 5 bucks at an Ace hardware that was going out of business.
Instead of using artificial lights, can't you just place the dome outside?
Clones don't really need very much light UNTIL they've fully rooted- strong light'll kill 'em ✌️
Why do you remove part of the leaf 🍃
It makes it so the plant needs less water. I watched other vids that they remove 40% of the plant leaves that were left after removing all lower leaves. I guess less leaf because the plant has to make do until the roots coming in.
Great video Chris.Shared with our subscribers! Be sure change out the Green Pad Jr every 2 days to get the best results..
Hey Marco, thanks for watching & commenting. There's no doubt that
we've gotten faster rooting, and overall increased strike rates once
we've added the Green Pad Jr pads into our cloning domes. Excellent
product for sure!
Will it still clone without the cloning gel?
Yes
good info and all! but you dont need cloning jell for tomatoes! they will root on there own i 6 to 7 days any way. how about a harder wood plant like a blueberry or lilacs bush? im in the market for a good cloning jell. and yea im going through a bunch of clone-x vids.
Cloning gel or powder does not work on bushes that have a wood like structure. For anything hard you have to pin a branch to the dirt with a landscape staple. Cover a few inches of the branch with dirt. Cover the dirt with wood mulch to prevent erosion. Come back to it after about six months. I am a landscaper and that's been my experience when trimming bushes in people's yards. I have a pink lemonade blueberry bush in my yard. I put some professional organic liquid plant food on it from Foxfarm called Grow Big along with some Recharge by Real growers. Then in the spring I put some Big Bloom with Recharge on it. And, that's when I started seeing baby bushes coming up right next to it. I later surgically extracted the babies and put them into pots. Gave most of them away as gifts. The blueberry bush grew 2 inches in 2 years. When I gave it some Recharge it grew 7 inches in one month!
True dat all the white hairs are actual roots.
Thanks for the explanation. Really good tips here. But I don't think the greenpad is a good product. This can't produce a great amount of CO2 and comes with a lot of plastic. And on the other side it is super easy to produce some CO2 releasing solution yourself (break it down to a smaller amount, if you need it only for a small cloner):
* Take a PET bottle, e.g. 1.5 liters
* Drill a small hole in the cap. 1-2 mm.
* Pour in 500 ml of water, 250 grams of sugar and a packet of dry yeast
I loved your video I have a few plants started myself and had some questions
Would this work the same way with weed?
Yes
Bruh hopefully this was sarcasm
Ya it will. I do it all the time. Tried and true
Question where do I buy the Co2 pads from?
Don’t.
I would recommend it just use heat pad to jump start
I cloned a leaf before with dirty scissors
I’ve been cloning for years, I didn’t bother cleaning my scissors. Recently I added that step and my luck went down.
I've had success using a rust razor lol
So never take the dome off ?
Its extra to keep bugs off not necessarily
Shouts from birmingham,uk
Thank you!
Great video bro easy quick definitly like to purchase products
Check water level every day under dome.
Great video!!
It was difficult to understand one product due to moving a lot & glare. Thank u
so cool🥰
perfect tutorial, thank you
why don't any of you guys tell people you don't need clone gel.Its helps but you don't need it
Lol you can just put tomato clones in water or straight in dirt no dome no rooting gel is needed
does it have to be a male or female plant to take clones or doesn't it matter
Normally u take clones of the best female plant
tomato plant flowers are selfpolinating. a little help doesnt hurt. cannabis, one would only clone males if you were breeding
I like that.
Is it just me or was anyone else expecting a cannabis plant fuckinghell man perhaps I'm too high
Tomato and cannabis .. same thing .. lol
thumbs down for rapid footer plugs alone; you represent clonex, but not the paired root riot that hdi makes for clonex?
They prolly in some small town
He actually said isopropyl alcohol... why do smoke shop guys try so hard to be formal? We all know what you do bro lol.
birmingham Alabama?
No birmingham uk😜
I use dirt
if you need all of that to root a plant that bad and a rip off
Where da weed bro ?
😠I knew that Mustache was fake 🥺
now tell me how I smoke a fucking tomato!
Nigga said what's growing on.....
✌🇨🇦
Hah it’s kill 2 stones with 1 bird 🦅
u dont need none of this crap to clone these!!!💩💩
Это что он клонирует? помидоры какие то?
isnt weed still illegal in alabama? we all know homie def is not growing tomatoes with that backward hat lol
