Good luck. It will only take you a few minutes to set up. You will probably take longer trying to decide where to take the clone from.

Here is a thought I had this AM. I am a soil guy, not hydro. My tap water ph's out to 6.8. I don't usually do anything to it. My understanding, hydro you want about 5.5 or so. When I changed the water this AM, I adjusted it down to 5.8. I will see if there is any noticeable difference. I also took 2 clones each from my BB, WW and BK that are all in flower. If one of each makes it I will be thrilled!!

Here you go Cajun. It took a couple days but here are today's pics. Of the 4 original clones, all seem to have made it. I just planted the last one this morning. I am quite certain the reason they took a little longer was that they started in flower. I have roots starting on some of my other clones now too. I think in general, it will take at least 2 weeks for "flower" clones to start showing any roots, at least that is what I am seeing so far. The first 2 clones are starting to take off. They will need to be moved to bigger pots soon. Probably Sunday since we are going away for the weekend after work tonight!!!
Here is the Sleestack Skunk that is vegging with the clones.

Thanks Roach. I am thrilled that 4 out of 4 made it. I usually am lucky to get 1 out of 4. I am going to have a problem if this thing keeps working so well. I will need to find some one who wants some clones! I will have no room for all of them.

Or you can just let them root a couple days and send them to 12/12 for a small single cola plant. In case you cant find anyone that wants a cannabis clone! (haha, yeah right)

Something to consider. I have one person I grow for and a VERY few close friends that know but that is it. I don't know anyone who grows (except for my friends here
) . That is one of the reasons I love this site. I have like minded people to share my experience with and who share theirs with me. - Thread starter

Hard to see under the LED but the 2 older ones have a tiny bit of bleaching. probably due to the fact that I start them under CFLs then moved them to the LEDs. The others spent more time in the cloner under LEDs so they don't seem to be affected.

I just transplanted a Super Silver Haze clone and I have a Blueberry Kush that will be ready in another day or 2. I am very happy with how this is working out!!!

I think I may have waited too long to transplant the BK. It had so many roots I had to break some off to get it out of the basket!! She will be fine! She has a great start on her root ball!!

Here is the 2nd Blue Kush clone that I took. So far, I have 7 planted clones from the Clone King. If the seeds were $10 a pop, the Clone King has already paid for itself. I have to give the Clone King 2 Thumbs up. 
Very happy with my investment!!!

Hey Super
Just curious why you bother with the baskets when you plan to transplant into soil. I've looked at many DIY setups for aero cloning and growing and most forgo the baskets and just use the neoprene discs when cloning. Saves trying to untangle the roots when transplanting into soil.

I hadn't really thought about it. But you are right. I will try the next clones I take with no basket.

So I have 4 WW clones and 2 BB clones that have been in the cloner for around 3 weeks and not showing anything. A couple days ago, I pulled one of the WW and gave it a fresh cut with my scalpel. This morning (36-48 hours later) I have roots coming out of the fresh cut. I put fresh cuts in everyone else this AM. We will see what happens.

Not sure. I may have to see if I can find them homes or maybe I will find somewhere outside to put them and if they make it great if not oh well.
