so i used the aerocloner forever then i got tired of cleaning out the res and bubble wand so I decided to be even lazier and use this way using only course grade vermiculite

first, gather everything up you need. A nice plant; ripe for the pickin', some clippers and some 4" pots filled with verm that has been soaked with water to wash off the dust.

dip it in the root tone and knock off any excess so as to have a very fine coat of powder on it

Very nice LB. I like the big cuttings. IMO they grow way faster than the small ones. Didn't they take Vermiculite off the market? Laziness can be a downfall of MJ. And our gardens suffer from them LOL Thanks for the Tutorial.. And I am glad I am not the only one who dips then uses powder.... Double action...

no way it is ever where; i buy it in 20lb bags, it is finding the 'course grade' stuff that is a problem ... most is very fine and stays too wet unless even more closely monitored.
