What temperature should my clones be at?
around 78°F.
Clones prefer temperatures between 75 and 85°F, with the ideal temperature around 78°F. A seedling heat mat may be the best tool to use to keep clones at a consistent temperature.
Do clones do best in cold dry environments?
Ideally clones should be maintained in an environment where air temperatures don’t exceed 24 -26° C (75.2 – 78.8° F). Maintaining air temperature lower than root zone temperature retards shoot growth and promotes root development; therefore, ideally air temperatures are slightly lower than root zone temperatures.
How long do roots take in Aero Cloner?
Garden plants like tomatoes or basil can start to show roots in as little as a three days and ready for transplant within five to seven days when everything is in tune. For most garden plants and situations expect to see a LOT of roots in about two weeks when it comes to aeroponic cloner time.
What can I use in aero cloner?
Top 15 Aeroponic Cloning Tips
- Always use a sharp, sterile cutting instrument like scissors, a razor or pruning shears.
- For best results, dip cuttings into a rooting gel, such as EZ-CLONE Rooting Compound.
Do clones need air flow?
Mist frequently, and keep air flow moving lightly. Clones root best when the media or water is around 75 – 80 degrees, and the humidity is close to 100%. A humidity dome can be used instead of the misting, but leave the vents open and provide good air flow. Roots will emerge at this point.
Do clones need heat mat?
Heat mats are used to increase the temperature and humidity inside of the dome. Leave the new clones alone and re-check the temperature and humidity levels every 2-12 hours for any potential issues that may arise. Now that the environment is dialed, we need to setup the lighting.
What is the best pH for clones to root?
Water should be between 5.8 and 6.3 measured pH. 3. 3. Taking the cuttings: Create cuttings by taking them from the top of the plant were the most growth occurs.
How fast can clones root?
Clones or cuttings need a much higher humidity level than seedlings. Humidity domes make sure that clones get enough moisture to root successfully. As we mentioned above, it will take around a week to 10 days for your clones to root.
What pH do clones need?

- Place your insert and cutting in the machine.
- Plug The Clone King in and your done.
Is it better to use clones or seeds?
A plant grown from seed is capable of yielding more than a cloned offspring. Most plants grown from seed naturally produce a tap root, whereas plants grown from clones are unable to do so. Growing from seed also lessens your chances of inheriting any pests or diseases from a cutting.
