DIY 5 Gallon Bucket Aeroponic Cloner
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 июл 2020
- In a previous video I highlighted an aeroponic cloner, in this video I go over the process to build your own based on a 5 gallon bucket. This design has worked well for me in the past and for the same money as a prebuilt cloner you can make 5-6 of these units. Having more, smaller capacity units allows for a rotation of plants and it's easier to grow a variety of things that may need different amounts of time in the cloner.
Items used in this build:
Small pump(s) used with 1/2" CPVC: amzn.to/2ZL7ddA
Large pump to use with 1/2" PVC: amzn.to/3hdxmHG
2" collars: amzn.to/39g448v
1 3/4" hole saw: amzn.to/32yZOzz
Buckets and plumbing parts are best bought at local big box stores.

If you like the content I produce and would like to help support this channel there is one really easy way and it won't cost you anything. By using one of my Amazon links below any time you begin your shopping I will get a small referral reward even if you don't buy the product listed (when an item is purchased). These little bits add up and help me to buy more garden items to make more videos!
You can use my general amazon link (amzn.to/3qjBw6K) or check out one of the tools below. These are tools I use every day in my garden and highly recommend.
Tree saw - this Silky Professional F180 has a comfortable grip and cuts through branches with ease. I use this for things too large for the pruners. To date there is no rust on it, I put a loop of paracord through the hole in tha handle to make it easier to hang. Link: amzn.to/35Mb77Z
Pruners - The Felco F-2 Pruners are the choice of gardening experts everywhere. They seem to last forever, if you are a real heavy user you can buy replacement blades and make them like new again. Link: amzn.to/3qjzgMO
Snippers - For more precise work such as cutting delicate leaves off of new starts, these Corona stainless steel snippers work great. They have a long narrow blade to get into the tight spots on your seedlings or to prune smaller plants. Link: amzn.to/2TZmk2B
Trowel - Now this isn't really classified as a trowel but the Corona Scopp is my everyday all prupose tool that I probably use more than anything else (besides the pruners). This is not the best for digging in the soil but I don't really do much of that in my food forest. This is an excellent tool for potting, which I do a lot of. It holds a lot more than a traditional trowel and is a very well built tool. I've left it out in the rain many times and no rust. Link: amzn.to/3zRa5We
Knife - This Morakniv knife has held up well, it stays sharp and while the blade has lost its bright color it has not rusted. I use this for opening bags of soil and cutting ropes and twine. This knife is fairly inexpensive and includes a belt holster if you prefer to carry it that way. Link: amzn.to/3d9IPbD

It's help poor indian people🌹, thanks Sir, good trick, money shaving arrangements
Great Video! Really helped me out
Glad to hear it!
Hey Karl/Carl! (Please correct me) I love this set up, genius! Thanks for the quality content!
Thanks Cam! (It's Carl)
Used your idea , but I used a 9qt igloo cooler. Small and compact , 8 site
Thank you so much! This is wonderful! Many years ago I lived in a high cold rain forest, in Central Mexico. We received 11' of precipitation a year, mainly in the form of drizzle. There, at 7500' altitude, it was pretty cool. We were able to root apples and plums by simply cutting the twig and sticking it in the ground. One time, a friend cut down a pear tree for firewood, in November and left the twigs on the ground. By April many of them had ROOTED! This technology makes me think of such conditions. I'm going to try it!
Do you think it would work on mulberries?
It should, the conditions are very similar to what you described. Thanks for watching :)
great video - how does this system compare to the system that creates bubbles in the water?
Could I use a quarter inch mister From a mini irrigation system And just make an Adaptor to fit the riser?
How often would you have the water on for the pump if starting to propagate (clone) some cuttings? I've heard 1 minute on / 5 minutes off, but I'm new to this. Looks nice !
I leave mine on all the time but have been thinking of trying the timer method.
7:35 where do you get these foam clone clips? Thank you for the video!
These are the ones I use: amzn.to/2YSqgVv
My OCD said put another hole in the middle of the bucket for a cord. Now It's one clone short for even number of 4"s. Your OCD has no game!
Is there a time schedule on how long you keep the water running and how often do you change the water?
I let it run all day and night and only change the water when I do a new batch of cuttings. Some people have used timers to run it off and on throughout the day and have had good results.
It would be good to put panda film on the outside so you dont have to use the white bucket then you have another bucket for another system 😀 and put the panda film on it to keep the light out on the white buckets.
Yes that's a good idea.
Did you use any nutrient mixtures like they do in hydroponics systems?
For more stubborn plants I add Clonex cloning solution. Here's a link, you can get it in smaller sizes. amzn.to/3eTYJYF
I've had some issues getting my lemon tree cuttings to root in soil. Would you recommend this for citrus cuttings? Do you think the water sprinkling stimulation would prove more helpful?
It's worth a try, I think this method is best for soft wood cuttings though. Maybe try the sandbox / sand bucket method, that has worked well for me for the harder wood like figs.
@@GardeningSolutions thanks so much for the suggestion.
In the end, what matters most is success rate per $value.
Absolutely.
My use of a pump added too much heat over time. So I changed to air bubbler.
I feel like it'd be pain in ass to find those sprinkler parts lol
Are you in the U.S.? Any home improvement store will have everything (Ace, Home Depot, Lowes). It's only a couple of dollars in parts.
@@GardeningSolutions ya I'll check it out thanks man
Can you show us one with a misting head and link the other parts.
Yes I will post a video with the misting design.
Do I need any additives solution or just plain ph water will work?
Plain water works, for more stubborn cuttings I have used this solution: amzn.to/3m8kNmP . I think you can find it cheaper with a quick search.
If I want more of a mist which head would you use..I'm going with the bigger pump
My results have shown that the head and spray pattern make very little difference. If you want a mist though I'd look at using some drip water system heads, they may have to be adapted.
@@GardeningSolutions thanks
@@roybrooks13
Use a booster pump designed for reverse osmosis, (ideally dc voltage). A single upward firing misting nozzle will be more than enough for a 5gal bucket.
No dome is needed? Do you have to keep the whole room that their in at a very high humidity?
No dome required, the roots are kept wet by the sprayers and the humidity in Florida is enough to keep the leaves from drying out.
12 inch round plastic cake pan.....5 gallon bucket is 12 inches around...the cake lids make nice domes
How long do u leave the cloner on for.. an what nutrients do u use if any.?
I leave it on all the time until all cuttings are ready. Here's a link to the rooting solution I use: amzn.to/3fteRio
Carl you use Clone X as well at the tip of the cutting?
Hey Carl I have everything lined up for this with the exception of that PVC extention piece. Will you share the spec? Length, name etc.
I went to Lowes yesterday, but couldn't find one
Hello, which pump are you using? If the small one, you need a piece of 1/2" CPVC pipe: www.lowes.com/pd/Charlotte-Pipe-1-2-in-x-5-ft-100-PSI-CPVC-Hot-Cold-Pipe/1000957530
The larger one uses 1/2" PVC. In either case you will need to cut the pipe, you only need a 2-3" length.
The sprinkler riser adapter for CPVC is this: www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-2-in-CPVC-CTS-Slip-x-FIPT-Adapter-Fitting-C4703HD12/100347927
I didn't see it on the Lowe's site but I know they carry it. If you want to skip the sprinkler riser and screw the head right to the end of the CPVC pipe you can use this: www.homedepot.com/p/NIBCO-1-2-in-CPVC-CTS-Slip-x-MIPT-Adapter-Fitting-C4704HD12/100048636
I did it with the riser because I already had all the parts on hand.
Does this help?
@@GardeningSolutions Outstanding..Your awesome Carl! I can't thank you enough.
I'm all set and will be using the small vivosun..Appreciate you taking the time.
Where did you get the sprinkler head ? And what are specifics on it?
I bought the same sprinkler head from Lowe’s (Canada) but I’ve seen the same sprinkler brand at my local Home Depot.
Would rooting hormone powder In the water help to root faster?
Probably, there are some root stimulants designed for this such as amzn.to/3wNOsHo
Did you add any nutrients to the water or pure water?
Sometimes I add Clonex clone solution for the more difficult plants. amzn.to/3NgEHGu
Couldn’t find the links for the collars and pump.
Sorry, just found them in the comments. Thank you.
I need to update the pump links, they keep changing the products on that page.
Can roses be cloned with this method?
I haven't tried it but they should be able to.
Is that really all the water you need in there?
Yes, not much is required. There is very little water loss since it is sealed up. You want to make sure the pump is covered and maybe an extra couple of inches but that is all you need.
@@GardeningSolutions Thank you!
Cheap alternative to the collars sre pool noodles cut up
Thanks Brandon, good idea!
Where can I find the sprinkler head?
Do you have a builders store near you like Home Depot or Lowes?
I’ve tried this areo cloner bucket and had no success with it. I’m doing everything the same way. Help me please
Is the cloner working correctly where you have a constant spray of water? If so, what kind of cuttings are you trying to propagate?
Can you list the parts for the sprinkler head please
Do you have a home improvement store nearby? Here's links for parts:
If the small pump, you need a piece of 1/2" CPVC pipe: www.lowes.com/pd/Charlotte-Pipe-1-2-in-x-5-ft-100-PSI-CPVC-Hot-Cold-Pipe/1000957530

And a riser: www.lowes.com/pd/Orbit-1-2-in-MNPT-x-1-2-in-MNPT-Cut-Off-Riser/1063721
I didn't see it on the Lowe's site but I know they carry it. If you want to skip the sprinkler riser and screw the head right to the end of the CPVC pipe you can use this: www.homedepot.com/p/NIBCO-1-2-in-CPVC-CTS-Slip-x-MIPT-Adapter-Fitting-C4704HD12/100048636

360 degree sprinkler head: www.lowes.com/pd/Orbit-10-ft-15-ft-Shrub-Head-Sprinkler/3427754
Does this help? I can provide Amazon links but the pipe is expensive there compared to buying it locally.
I'm clueless for sprinkler parts so a link would help me understand what I'm looking for much better!
@@GardeningSolutions I was gonna ask, what was the point of the riser,? haha so just pump to pvc, pvc to adapter, adapter to sprinkler nozzle, got it.
Pool noodles are better and cheaper then the rings you are using to plug the holes.
$ .99 Poole noodle
