the versions found in Clonex, Dip-n-Grow, Olivia's, whatever.ģ. All of these are in soluble form and are in an organic form vs. IAA creates the actual root sites on the cutting's shaft whereas IBA causes root elongation. These compounds perform different functions as far as facilitating root development, i.e. Kelp: Kelp contains the natural forms of rooting compounds that you find in commercial products, compounds like Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), 4-Chloroindole-3-acetic acid and Phenylacetic acid which are auxins (hormones - all auxins are hormones but not all hormones are auxins). This is the compound that's found in Willow trees which you might have run across in posts on rooting a cuttingĢ. Aloe Vera: Salicylic acid is a plant compound which has been used as a rooting agent for over 120 years in the nursery industry. Here are the components and why they're used:ġ. Here is a very effective and simple recipe from Lumperdawgz that will blow any commercial rooting product out of the water. If you want even crazier roots get yourself some voodoo juice and add 2tbsp per gal into that above formula and use RO water. You need to water the bark rooter or rockwool cubes with clonex solution at 80ml per gal or use some Thrive Alive and Bloom at 1tsp per gal then water your clones.
Either way you need to feed the clone something. Then plant your clone in either bark rooters which are rapid rooter cubes or use rockwool. On top of all of that you need to cut your clones with a clean sterilized pair of scissors or razor blade and instantly dip into your clonex which should be in a separate container since you don't want to be dipping your freshly cut clones into the actual jar of clonex or else you'll contaminate the whole jar. Then you need a tray with a dome so you can create humidity. You have to have heat stimulation to the root zone, I use a heating mat. And I even tried Advanced Nutrients Juicy Roots which is the worse rooting gel ever! Honestly bro, clonex does the trick every time but cloning is more than just gel you know.
I've also tried Dutch Masters replicator and it sucked. I then wrote them an email at and that was on February 21.no response since then.ĭude I have to agree with like every person on this thread clonex is the shiznit! I use to use Rootech and it sucks way hard compared to clonex. I tried to contact Clonex by phone but that didn't work. I hope that this honest review helps some people avoid the mistake I made.Īnd no, I do not work for any competitor. I therefore took my time to share my personal experience with the Clonex product with others. However, the shop doesn't provide a refund and the company doesn't take the time to respond. I'm not one that negatively talks about a product online. So I contacted Clonex by email and provided them with the batch number. The people there don't like Clonex either. That is my experience so I went to the shop where I bought it from but I didn't get a refund. After that I cloned again without clonex or any other rooting agent and I had again a nearly 100% success ratio. 100% of all the clones with Clonex died, that is 15 plants dead as all rotted away in the area where the Clonex gel was applied. I didn't like the product given its gel consistency but I used it anyways having read positive reviews online. About a month ago I gave Clonex a first try. I'm an experienced gardener and have had my success growing indoors with soil.
