You better hope they don't dry out. I don't know if they will I'm just throwing that out there. I already did this once but I was using 550gph pump in a 31 gal tub, and I think it didn't work because the water was getting to hot. I have since ordered the same EXACT pump the OP used and I also have the same 31 gal tub. Only thing that is different is that I have 16 misters and he has 12. I don't know if that will make a difference or not but we will see. I also went out and bought a 4 foot shop light, because I thiink my t5 was putting out too much light also. I know that clones don't need that bright of a light and I think the shoop light will be perfect. That's what they say to use for the EZcloneer and this is basically the same exact thing. What is your guy's thoughts on the light to use, and is it that important. I think that might have alot to do with people's success using these machines. If any of you pro's can tell us a little bit about what kind of light to use with this machine and how far away to keep it, I would really appreciate it. TYIATHINKING GREEN I'm getting the CAP ART-DNe... Now that I have roots, I dont need to be misting 24/7. I will start with a 15min on, and 15min off cycle until they are ready to go!
Thanks for the advise. Where do you find a timer that does one minute on and four off? I can't find one anywhere. Thanks bro.

whatcha got in that sweet little aero cloner there? Mostly sativa? Well it looks like it anyways. Thanks for the advise bro. I keep my shop light about 18 inches from the tops. Man I hope everything goes good I got a new pump, a new light, and a lot of my time on this damn aero. Well if it does work then it dosen't get any much easier than taking a cutting throwing it in a neoprene and forgetting about it for 7 to 10 days and coming back to nice looking roots.
The foam inserts...are those cut from one of those gardening knee pads/foam sheets?
Same exact material, and I have used the knee pads. These however, are from one of those 2'x2' pieces that are used to make a foot-mat. When you get them they have those puzzle-type interlocks around the outside edge. The sheets cost a whoping $2 instead of $1. Of course they are twice as big. (LOL)

I got roots!!!!!! It took 14 days but I got them. I added a little bit of nutes, and boom they went.Ok I have everything the OP has with his set-up, I have a 31 gal tub, I have the same exact pump he uses, I have a 4 foot shop light that the company suggest for the ez cloner. I CAN'T GET ANY F*C*ING ROOTS, WHY? Please help a brotha out. My temp stay right at 80 deg. I'm going to check my water temp tom. and see what it's at. I know one thing though I was using a 550 gph and when I opened the lid it was really hot in there. Now when I open the lid it seems perfect. I will check temps in there tom. If any of you guys can give me some advice I would appreciate the hell out of it. Thanks.

Hi Sum... The misters are 4" down, they were actually closer to the lid in the pics I posted. I built a new manifold and made it as short as I could, but 4" is the best I can do.
The cooler is just too damn short. I can pull some more clones, and will drop them into Oasis cubes until I can build yet another cloner. I think the Aerocloner IS the better setup, I just need to build a taller one. Next go around, I'll also pick up one of the 1min On/4min Off timers... I'm thinking having the stems saturated 24/7 is prolonging the rooting. I'm using just plain H2O now. PH'd down to 5.8 or so now. Temp is hovering at 79f.
Here's another question... Several of the clones are very limp, I'm figuring they're done for. Several others looks great, just don't have roots... Can I take the healthy looking ones and dip them in some Cloning Gel and drop them into Oasis cubes, or are they doomed as well?
I wondered if maybe slicing off 1/4" of so of the stems from the nice looking ones before dipping in Gel would make any difference???
Please keep the advice coming...
The new 20"x36" tent showed up today... I'll get it built tomorrow and things transferred over from this crappy cabinet. It'll be a little tighter in there, but at least it'll be light proof now!
