When you are transfering the new babies to the Hygromite the roots are not out of the basket yet so how do you ensure they are getting watered once in the new veg bubbler (since roots are not in the res water yet)? Will the bubbles take care of that?

Thanks!!!
your buddies, bozo said he won't be here often for a while so let me try to answer your question for you. you can either hand water until the roots hit the nutes or you can set up a drip system to do it for you until the roots hit the nutes.

he just uses foam insulation for pipes (i think) and cuts it lengthwise so it's open and easier to get the plants out when time. and he obviously cuts them into little pucks. he uses them so the clones don't fall in the res.

you are more limited by the size of container that you use. you can't really have too much air. just put them evenly spaced across the top of your box. he gets like 20 or so i believe. (i'm too lazy to go back and read.)

hope this helps.

bozo, didn't mean to step on your toes, just trying to help out while you are away....so get your a$$ back!

sorry to back-track, but in one of your early posts, you mentioned the 'Hygromite' ... is it as good as their website's pics demonstrate ? ... I haven't found anybody that uses it, to question, yet ... none of the local hydro stores stock it, and the freight charges kept me from ordering it, until I know more ... thx

Just wanted to say I made this exact bubble cloner, and it works amazingly well. So far i've rooted 6 out of 8 clones and the other 2 are starting to show signs of roots. IT WORKS! I ended up putting the stems in the water, thinking it wasn't working but who knows, it seems to work both ways. pics are in my grow log! bubble gum getting hairy!

TIR, talk to WH she uses higromite and she loves it, if my memory serves me right... She'll be able to answer some of those ?'s....I know she does, prefer it over hydroton...

And Purplehaze I went to the hydro store and got some EZ cloner neoprene collars less than 50 cents a piece, and they work great...or the insulation works too...

high everybody, just wanted to let you know i'm back, lol, until my
next crisis.

and -shake, thanks for steppin' in and takin' up the slack while i was
'away', it's nice to see that there's someone still answering the noob's
questions.

as to the collars i use to hold my cuts. what i did was get a length of
pipe-wrap insulation, the kind that comes in 5 foot lengths with a split
down the middle so you can wrap it around a hot water pipe. (they cost
about $1.00 - $2.00 per 5 foot length and they come in different diameters,
get the small ones)
then, i just cut that into 1 inch pieces and i wrap those pieces around
each of my cuts and stick them into the 1 inch holes i drilled into the
top of my cloner, easy as pie and cheap as hell.

and reaper, good to see ya. anyway, i think doughboy's right, i'm pretty
sure it's weedhound that is actually using hygromite. (i'm back playing in
the dirt again right now). i'm pretty sure Stinky is familiar with it too.

if i remember correctly, i liked the hygromite because it's ph neutral right
out of the bag, plus, i believe it also leachs (not the right word i'm sure)
minute amounts of silica to help promote cell wall strength.

i also wanted to say that my beans arrived so look for a new bozo thread
coming soon to a forum near you! (i've got 5 PPP's and 5 White Rhino's
germinating as we speak)

awesome awwesomewesome this is just what i was looking for!!

so do you leave the clones uncovered or do you still cover them to keep humidity?

EDIT: Ok I read thru post and answered my own question my badd.. But still thanks somuch I really needed something like this im tired of cloning with peat pellets in a humidity dome with shitty success rate and more often then not wilting problems.
