Happy Hydroponicing!
Experiments with unexpected results are my favorite. Love that you're willing to show us all the ups and downs, great video!
About 6 months ago my neighbor was trimming his grapes back at the end of their season in the Soth Island of New Zealand, so I ran to the pile and took a few cuttings. I trimmed them to about 5in, wet the bottoms after cutting them on a 45 angle, dabbed the bottom with a rooting hormone and placed them in Perlite & Crushed Pumice. Only watered the mixture once before placing cutting in. and a few months ( about 4 ) later I have 5 nice flowering cuttings with good root systems. I would have used the Cocoa stuff but it is very pricey here. Loved this video pal.. Thank you.
For plants like the capsicums
I take a (clean sterile) razor blade and scrape back the outer layer of the of film off the bottom where you dip it into the clonex
Gives a bigger rooting surface for the cutting to take off
95% success rate
nice to know, thanks
I've tried rooting peppers a few times and never with success, they were the only ones that never took root. This year I stuck a few cuttings for a test in a 60/40 coconut pot which was already planted with cucumber and everything rooted (except peppers) and very well - tomatoes, basil, strawberry runners, ... . I am very pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of the coconut, nothing has withered or dried up. Even a broken branch with unripe tomatoes riped without problems.
Nobody has captured"Growth"/life like you! Bravo!!! IMHO Too much leftage caused failures. Keep up that great work!
This is why I love your videos. Thanks for educating both yourself and your audience. Good information
My cloning setup it just some root riot cubs a lil clonex and wa tray with a dome they eventually get transfered to 1 gal pots of coco and added to my recirculating flood and drain setup
Roots come out where there is a nod, your capsicum cutting did not have a nod. A good cutting is cut a few mm under a nod.
It's "node".
Nod sounds betta
Its ma'am @@whiplashlady
I seed start in my garage with a heat mat and the grow light looks great. Bringing a cutting in doors risks transferring insects and I would clean with insect soap and BT, Spinosade, or Pyrethium all organic. A weak hydrogen peroxide solution on a branch would work and you need to test the mix in advance to check if the plant is not affected
mint is a beast. it completely takes over my garden if i dont regularly tear it up
Most white papers suggest not cutting leaves unless you’re rooting high quantities in tray/domes. VPD is everything but temp/humidity are probably most important while rooting.
I would double the height of the spider farmer (or more) mine gets quite warm and it’s deceptively bright. Too much light and they’ll try to photosynthesize instead of rooting.
Nice! Spider farmer make good quality stuff on more of an affordable budget than some. Hope they treat ya well 💚
Thank you for your video. Like you have said before, it's science. Only through trial and error can we learn. Than you for taking the time and efforts to show us the options. God bless you and your family.
I think you would have succeeded with the pepper plant cutting if you had a node at the base of the cutting - it works better as this is where the new roots will grow from - I’ve had more success that way using a similar system to yours - it does take longer than herbs to root - 🤟
Same here brother! I tried almost the snake experiment last year and Coco+nutrients alone performed great 🤷🏻♂️
Strangely I just built one of these this past week as well, but haven't used it yet. Awesome to see how you did yours. Great video, as usual.
Pool noodles, air pump, dome and the container. 👌
I have a system similar and the pool noodles do work well to keep the plant in place but I did notice some water splashing out so I changed to the neoprene pucks and it definitely helps.
god the way those containers fit at the start was magical, were they just random things you found that fit?
i'd love that cloning planter.. i have some clone collars that i got for free & i love planting seeds and watching them grow lately, i've really started getting into gardening!
I want to make a cloning tub like this
I made one of these some time back, your XP with it pretty much mirrors mine, it either works great, or it doesn't. Something that its good for that you might not have considered is that its seems to be great way to give already rooted seedlings a boost before putting them outside in soil, though I'm not sure how much of a boost it really ends up being since the plants take a little bit to adjust from the soil I usually root them in to the DWC, thought that might be lessened with rooting methods you use like w/coco and perlite.
I made mine a bit differently than you did. 1st- I used the 2 inch cloning collars, but I also used netcups to hold them in the lid to make things easier. I cut the bottom "net" parts off the netcups, so it was basically the "collar" of the netcup holding the cloning collar in place. It ruins the netcups for other uses, but 2 inch netcups are pretty cheap.
2nd- I just cut a notch in the bottom of the lid, and on a corresponding location on the top of the tote to let the airstone's line through. That way I didn't need to take the stone off the line when I took it out of the tote when I was done with it. Basically just like resting the lid on the airstone line, but then cutting out the places on the tote and lid that are contacting the line so that the lid can close.
Anyway, great vid, you're doing a great job with your hydro experiments, often really breaking new ground..... no pun intended.
Nice 1 Mr Hoocho. Excellent guide to the whole Cloning, Propagation and Rooting Technique. Keep up the great work.
I clone my tomatoes by simply putting the cutting in a jar of water. In warm weather 3 or 4 days and they have roots, no hormone dip needed. I suspect easy to root herbs like mint and basil would do the same.
I take a slice of Tomato, a small pot filled with potting mix then lay the slice on top and cover with 1/2 inch of soil and keep moist.
And bingo soon I have 8,10 or 12 seedlings.
Cheap as and satisfying . 👍
5:16 that would technically mean more vertical water pressure to create the mist of bubbles if you didn't have the slits.
If the coco propagated plants are to go into the hydroponic solution container, their roots will need to be cleaned, and it adds a bit more work and stress for the plants
Thank you for the honest results, great video !
I clone tomatos, cucumbers and watermelons to grow them indoors a years along. I use just tap water for rooting plants. I seed tomatos first, select the best species of them by harvest and clone them tben to proceed the process.
Maybe where you took the cutting on the capsicum caused it to not root. My cuttings are doing alright in just ultra weak hydroponic solution. I took my cuttings just below the node and the nodes turned into a nice gnarly callous with roots developing off of that.
All of those things would've rooted just fine in a glass of water on the kitchen bench. The real challenge would be to do it with blueberry cuttings or something else that is notoriously hard. It might prove more valuable in those circumstances.
unfortunately I have found that capsicums do not root just fine in a glass of water on the kitchen bench. If it has been successful for you please share your secret
@@MouldySponge I don't have an answer for you bud. Maybe use younger branches. Eggplants, tomatoes, chillies, all root just fine in a glass of water. Capsicums being a kind of chilli obviously.
Another great video Mr Hooch
This method has been successful for us, for the plants we clone the rooting was usually fast and almost 100%. Our biggest problem was training the clones on to medium like coco as we do not grow hydroponicly. Using a timer and in the later stages of rooting reducing the wet time encouraged different roots. Just observations, not an experiment so don't jump me on this please.
Thx for the video 👍 Yeah I think the same about the cold water... Maby you should try warmer place or heating mat so the water gets a bit warmer. Would be nice to see if there is any difference
Warm water = root rot. Cold water = more oxygen.
@@raykewin3608 No don't think so... Changing water is recommended. Pros and cons...cold or warm water is not great...heating up so it gets a bit warmer is a good idé...don't know the temp of that water
Basic Physics, The colder the water the more oxygen it can hold. Plants like cooler water temps. @@hammerfallen12345
@hammer dude your wrong. Don't give advice unless you are 100% on whatever it is your saying otherwise you hurt newcomers chances at being successful. Better to not say anything than something wrong.
@sirchawlez4718 You clearly don't understand speculation and facts. Better you leave this channel if you can't behave little boy. Go troll somewhere else if you can't come with any solutions. Worse people I know is the experts that say others is wrong but they can't come with a single explanation to solve other people problems.
When cloning, I have had much better luck with growing medium than with any hydroponic system I have tried.
Really, then you must not be following instructions, I built 2 diy spray cloners, works like a charm.
you should do a video on plant graphing, for those of use who can only have so many plants based off on the number of root stocks legally ;)
Trimming clone leaves has been shown not to increase propagation success rates, but it is space efficient if it matters, otherwise why force the plant to respond to great injury to start its new life? 🙏
Good honest review of your own work.
For anyone that wants to buy the black plastic rolls, stanley is out of stock until mid late Nov.
We only have clear ones at the moment, the black ones are on backorders, ETA mid-end Nov.

Reckon you could give it a try using a rockwool cube? I'd be keen to see if we can plant direct from cutting into NFT
I have one problem with this method: It creates primarily airroots. If you transplant them into substrate, the transplantshock is enormous. Atleast that was my expierence.
Now I know why all my stuff died. Duh!
Yeah it's hard to break them into solid medium, even with coco.
Aloha from Hawaii Hoocho!
Since my son was on fall break, we decided to visit your country. We visited both Sydney and Melbourne, very beautiful scenery, friendly people and very cute animals!
I have a question about coco coir pellets, do you need to keep them moist during the plant’s (lettuce) growth cycle?
If so, how do you keep them moist?
Mahalo (thank you), David
Sorry, I forgot to mention Kratky hydroponics style
Thanks, David
Have you tried companion plants for your spider mite and bug infestation for example basil makes tomatoes taste better and marigolds ward off aphids which I use all the time also if you have some flowers around your not only attracting bees for pollination but ladybugs the right kind of lady bug (google the Asian lady bug its bad) feasts on spider mite aphids and some other creepy crawleys. Happy hydroponicing😊
You’re so real about “keep the internet happy” 😂
Could you use a small diameter soaker hose to defuse the 02 eaqually?
i Did the same with tree cuttings like peach, apricot, lime, orange and pear but the orange grows new leaves and small roots then dies and it did the same in the coco peat.
Do you ever fill the res back up during that first week or so?
Amazing you got roots within 3-4 days.
Another cool vid thanx hoocho
inexplicably i have never had luck cloning with hydro. tried multiple systems and procedures but they never root! i can do it in soil, but i tried like 10 times using "cloners" before i even bothered with soil based cloning.
Great video as always. Thank you for your time and hard work.I would like to see this done with an ultrasonic fogger. Can that be done?
The ultrasonic fogger does not create droplets that are small enough, ive tried, does not work. With my cloner came a normal sprinkler, works way better than the fogger.
Great video! Thanks Hoocho!
Oh just use pool noodles like everyone else for gawd sakes.
Less than a penny a plug
Rapid Rooters work very well.
What did you do on your spider mites? PRobably need to keep lady bugs around... a lot of lady bugs. That would be a disaster for me.
Fun video. Great opportunity to use my 3D printer. What happened with the editing gone crazy on this video?
Hey did you mean to put a link to where you got the air stones somewhere? Maybe I'm not looking hard enough, but I don't seem to be able to locate it.
did you do a test with canabis clones?
Honest review , Thanks mate
Can u do a mini aquaponics system please
King gizzard 💜
where do you get the clear propagation domes hoocho? Is there a diy alternative? PS: tip- have found that acetone removes the bunnings logos on the buckets 😅
That is a fancy Aerogarden! 😂
Hi Hoocho, That furtiliser in the background (yaratera), did you try it? how does it compare to Campbells?
I am inspired by your videos.
Does the hydroponic system work with indica?
Well I’m glad I watched the end. 😅
I was expecting to hear at the end, "It wasn't the light!" hehe
Basil and mint I just propagate in jam jars with plain water because they grow insanely 😂
IMHO rooting requires good callus to form on woody species, maybe not possible in liquid...
10:53 HOOOOOW DOES THAT LESSEN THE SHOCK FOR PLANT???!
Rosemary takes a ridiculously long time to form roots compared to other plants using this method, and capsicums/chillis take even longer. You didn't set anything up wrong in my opinion, but may not have waited long enough.
I thought the same, but the rosemary did root in the dirt in the same amount of time. So maybe it takes longer in water, but faster in dirt???
use a razor blade and scratch gently the outside skin of the cutting off in order to expose the inside flesh and then dip in hormone.
Put your cuttings into coarse sand, even easier
This problem with roots happens because you add air into it.
You do not need plant nutrient or any root hormones to propagate tomato plants. Its kinda funny people actually do it the hard way. You do not need any expensive equipment, not a black box, nor a air pump/stone. You can simply use a clear bottle filled with tap water. I wish one started to experiment with the simplest and cheapest.
Thats cpas is just too small. I have sp sf300 they are great lights, great company in my experience.
I don't know wat I wanted to say here. Maybe that the cutings of Capsicum are too small.
For a product that is similar to this but incredibly overpriced, look at the x-stream cloner.
I hope to god this guy will not say "a pump"
A air stone fk me
