Using an Aeroponic Cloner for Plant Propagation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 тра 2020
- Aeroponic plant cloners are a great way to propagate stubborn plant cuttings. In this video I propagate some Katuk cuttings, using the Clone King 36 position cloner I get nearly 100% success where normally it's only around 50%.
Here is a link to the cloner I use in the video: amzn.to/35DPS7F

When transplanting into soil/substrate I use the cardboard inner toilet paper tube as a sort of transplant shield for the delicate roots. Just place it in the pot as you’re adding in the soil. Put the clone into the tube & gently top up the soil all around the plant. Slide out the tube then water the new plant lightly & it’s done. Great informative video btw & a big thank you from a new subscriber
Thank you, that's a great transplant method :)
Great tips
You just cleaned them and put it straight down to the floor lols 😂
Hey I got clean floors! :)
Thanks for posting. I just got one and the instructions, well, they're not the greatest.
Glad I could help :)
I like except that the reservoir should be seperate potentially. Has potential for sure especially outdoors if your not doing a separate primary reservoir. cheap timers at Ace for the outlet can work. This would be fantastic for outdoor plants in the heat and love that you can water so many at once
Ive tried all that root shit amd now i ise oy tap water run 24/7 with a light on my basement floor keep water below 70 great roota in 3 wks bumps in a week but i let gwt good roots so.etimes i put a cap of hydrogen peroxide i even put 3 or 4 cuts in each sight forget spendi g money on any crap tqp water is all u need
Is that an air compressor I hear in the background for an AAA setup by any chance?
Not an air compressor, maybe some traffic. I live on a fairly busy road and not too far away is a canal that airboats use. It can get a little noisy at times :)
Clone x solution but no gel?
Does the sprayer constantly spray water or is it automated?
It runs constantly but you could have it intermittent as long as the cuttings stay moist.
How often do you have to refresh the water inside the cloner?
I change the water and nutrient (if used) for each batch of cuttings, rarely ever have to add water.
Also, have you ever tried running seedlings in it? On/off times?
I've used it to grow out seedlings for a hydroponic system and it worked well for that. As for running the pump intermittently, I haven't tried that but I have a friend doing it with a bucket system I made for him. We are growing similar plants and are going to compare results. He is using a timer that does 15 min on / 15 min off.
Gardening Solutions so for your seedlings you have just left it on basically 24/7?
Started seedlings in paper towel method and then transferred? Another method?
@@afishl1 I used net cups with rockwool to start seeds for a hydroponic system. Yes, I leave mine running 24/7.
How often would I add clonex to the CloneKing 35 cloning site kit? I've been growing for a few years but first year cloning. Thanks for any help
Just add it once when starting a new batch of cuttings.
U don't need it I only use tap let set a day then fill it run 24 7 roots in 3 wks not bumps real roots keep water above 70
I just got one of these, I have all kinds of cuttings in it testing it out. My grape cuttings have been in it for 4 days now, on all places that were cut, they have a light brown color forming over the cuts, I'm worried it's some kind of bacteria or rot already, Could you offer any insight?
I'd give it more time, may take a couple of weeks to start showing roots. As long as the upper portion looks healthy (above the collar ring) then they may be fine.
@@GardeningSolutions cool. Thanks
Did the grapes work?
@@jasoncosby8363 the grapes did not end up working on this, however I did successfully clone my grape vine using air laying. I got some of the air layering pods from Amazon and did an air layering right in middle of summer. Keep inside the pod moist and in about 6 to 8 weeks the pod was full of roots, I cut it off the parent vine and planted it in a pot and it’s doing well.

good job is the stems in the water? i bought this one but thinking i should bought the hydro
Stems are not in the water, they just need to be kept moist by the sprayers.
@@GardeningSolutions thanks
@@GardeningSolutions
SIdeally they should be kept between damp and moist,
Does it work for roses too?
do you have to put the cloner in the sunlight
Just the opposite, you want to keep it shaded. Indirect sunlight is best, direct sun will cook and dry out the clippings.
At 8:00 looks like your sprayers are clogged
They do clog up pretty quickly but as long as water is spraying around it still works.

Kindly pumpnyoubusing please
The main reason I'd prefer a bubbler as opposed to a sprayer is that the sprayer's submersible pump requires a live wire going into the water, which presents a major electrocution risk if there is the slightest nick in that electrical wire's insulation or any internal fault in the pump. Live current and water is a lethal mix, potentially.
These are plugged into GFI circuits so any fault should trip it. I also don't put my hand into the water in the reservoir while plugged in. I haven't tried it with a bubbler but might give it a shot.
You can buy a grown fault extension cord or plug it into a ground fault reciprocal but since you bring it up they have these pumps with the sprayer both
Submersible water pump. Meant to be…. Submersed….
If that scares you dont build a litchenburg burner 😂
Did it leak at all?
No, I haven't had any leaks.
I've used the same prototype on a 64 clone cloning machine just like that one and you could just take the cuttings and stick them in there you don't need any root powder or food for them whatsoever. Just a good fluorescent or LED light over the top. I've gotten roots in 4 days before. Have used it over and over and over again. The only thing I don't like is do cats get clogged up and it screws up the sprayers about every cycle which isn't a big deal but if they just had some sort of a filter like you see on a vacuum cleaner, some sort of a sponge type of filter it would prolong the life of the pump and the sprayers as well and it would also keep algae out of the water. A few times I even put two clo es per hole and had 100% success everything. Whatever size that'll fit in the hole will root. It's crazy.
That first clone looked like a straight leafless stick
