Cloning Instructions

– Start by cleaning and sterilizing EVERYTHING (trays/domes/scissors/razor blades).

– Soak rooting medium in R/O (reverse osmosis) water mixed with both of these products:

– Nature’s Solution Compost Tea (1 cup per gallon of R/O water) (Root Soak

– KLN Rooting Hormone (2 teaspoons per gallon of R/O water) & Spray)

– Re-soak rooting medium in above solution every 5-8 days (pour any excess water out of tray).

**The trick is to let the grow medium dry out 5-8 days prior to re-soaking (approximately 75% dry). The clones will try to put out roots to find water

– Squeeze the excess water out of the rooting medium (coco plugs or Grodan blocks) and place the medium in tray.

– Keep PH between 5.4 and 6.4

– Take 8″ long clones and place in a cutting tray submersed in room temperature R/O water (this is the safest way to cut a clone).

– Cut down the 8″ long clone to 4″- 6″ at a 45 degree angle underwater.

– Dip 4″ – 6″ long clone (1/2 inch deep) in one of the following Rooting Hormone.

– Clonex Gel

– Dip & Grow

– Rootech

– Wood’s Rooting Compound

– Place clone 1″ deep in one of the following grow tray medium.

– Coco Plugs

– Oasis Cubes/Wedges

– Grodan Blocks

– Cut all large fan leaves on the clone in half with sterile scissors.

– Spray clones immediately with the same mixture from LINE #2.

**Mist clones with this spray once every three days

– After spraying the clones, spray the humidity dome with the same mixture then place the dome over clones and keep the ventilation holes closed.

– Place clones in a dark or subdued light for 24 hours.

– After 24 hours, open (halfway) ONLY 1 ventilation hole and put a Dual Florescent Light (T-12) or a Single T-5 Light Fixture 1″ – 2″ over the humidity dome.

– Set light timer to 20 hours ON and 4 hours OFF.

– Place Heat Mat under the tray and set thermostat at 77 degrees (always keep clones 74-79 degrees).

– After 5 days, open (halfway) the 2nd ventilation hole.

– After 14 days, open (entire way) both ventilation holes.

– You should have rooted clones ready to transplant in 14-21 days.

– 24 hours prior to transplanting, prop open the humidity dome 1″ – 3″ to let air in to harden the clones off.

Tips for after Cloning

**When taking clones from clone tray, feed roots with 1/4 strength bloom nutrients for the first week (PPM should be 300 – 500 and PH should be 5.3 – 6.3).

Advanced Spraying for Veg – Flower

**All sprays should be mixed with 1 quart R/O water and a wetting agent (such as Coco-Wet, SM-90 or Dutch Master Saturator) to make plant sprays.

First Week of Veg: Spray rooted clones with 3/4 tsp. Canna Rhizotonic and3/4 tsp. Grotek Insta-Green. Spray once per day for 5 days.

Second Week of Veg: Spray plants with 1 tsp. Ful-Power Fulvic (Humic) Acid and 1/4 tsp. Dyna-Gro Foliage-Pro. Spray once every other day for 5 days.

Third Week of Veg: Spray plants with 1/4 tsp. Silicate and 1/4 tsp. Messenger (and 1 drop PH Down). Spray only once this week.

Fourth Week of Veg: Spray plants with 3/4 tsp. Canna Rhizotonic and 1/2 tsp. Spray-n-Grow. Spray only once this week.

**This is a good week to cut clones and trim plants before going into flowering

First Week of Flower: Spray plants with 4 tbsp. Dutch Master Max FX Flower and 3/4 tsp. Canna Rhizotonic. Spray only once this week.

Second Week of Flower: Spray plants with 1/4 tsp. Messenger and 1/2 cup Nature’s Solution Tea. Spray only once this week.

Third Week of Flower: Spray plants with 1 tsp. Ful-Power Fulvic (Humic) Acid and 1 1/2tsp. Sray-n-Grow. Spray only once this week.

**If you wish to keep spraying plants in the flower stage, use Dutch Master Max FX Flower with a very fine misting spray only. Spray once per week.
