![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | if you want a more natural method, try powerderd seaweed at a low dose next time. it's proven time and time over by researchers to speed up germination.. .... safe for you and your plant. if you want the best seaweed, acadian

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Luke (I really should use the quote feature I just noticed your post was from 4 months ago or so), I've tried quite a few now. Powders are not my favorite. I am down to two that I can generally find and work for me quite well. 100% of my clones root 100% of the time. Things even got way too hot in my cloning chamber the other day (over 100F) and a top on one of the 12 I had going got burnt. It still rooted after that and is growing as I type lol. Clonex Gel Olivia's Gel Clonex is cheaper and is what I am currently using. I am not sure if I like the Olivia's 'better' or not, she was my first favorite. Sounds interesting adikted! Thanks for the info, I don't do seeds too often anymore unless I am getting bored and need a new breed to play with, but I have a few old seeds here I am going to try this on and the method Diamond Dave posted.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ^ none, there not natural .use seaweed or plain water if noob at cloning, get an ez-cloner or try your hand at just straight coco, works like a charm . or mess around as that's how we all learn

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ^ organic is better for you and the enviroment. and just my preferance but I have never heard of any case of problems in plants, and most use some sort of chemical compound for rooting

![]() | What about putting some rooting hormone on a seedling that had some roots ripped off during transplanting. I am currently trying it with one seedling. I have another grown in exact same conditions and same watering schedule. So I have one with root hormone and one with out. A nice control. Let you know how that turns out in the next few days. | ||

just out of shear curiosity, why are you transplanting seedlings? do you mean from moving them from paper towel to media? it takes awhile for roots to become root bound... | ||
