I am sorry if there was anything I said that offended you, regardless who is/was right or wrong. I lost my footing and this is genuine and not a result of being warned or anything. One love and light...

I completely cleaned my EZ Cloner with Physan20 and set it up. The next thing I had to decide was where I wanted to get my beneficial microbes from. I could buy very expensive bottles that like to sell everything separate. One bottle for beneficial bacteria. Another bottle for beneficial fungi and so on. What I ended up doing is making my own earth worm casting tea. IMO nothing beats a fresh brewed EWC tea for microbes. You get beneficial bacteria, fungi, protozoa and nematodes. And the best of all is you only need a $5 dollar bag of earth worm castings, a bucket, air stone and air pump. Oh, and some molasses or what I used, CarboLoad that I still had stored away. The complex sugars in these products feed the microbes. Get over to the organic soil forum and read about EWC teas. In 24 hours they should look frothy like mine.
I ended up putting some in a gallon container for later use. You can store it in the fridge for up to 7-10 days.
And, here is the EZ Cloner ready to go. Notice, I went ahead and threw in a biological filter. Keep you updated.

ItsGrowTime, I highly suggest at this point that you get your beneficial from making your own Earth Worm Casting Tea. When it's done brewing they are ready to go. You don't need to prime the rez. That is why I didn't go with the bottled stuff. That and the price. Its super cheap and you can make some within 24 hours whenever you need to re-innoculate your hydro setup. You can keep it in the fridge for up to 10 days. I have been adding some to my EZ Cloner every 3 days. I think it has been 5 days since I put the cuts in the EZ Cloner. Yesterday, I seen the nubs on the cuts from where the roots will shoot out from so I hit them with House & Garden Root Excelurator (amazing stuff) and I have the roots already starting on most of the cuts. My EZ Cloner is running at 84F (edit) which would be frowned upon. I attribute rooting in 5 days to the warmer temps. No slime yet, fingers crossed.
Here is what I got in 5 days.

Yeah, I primed my EZ Cloner with beneficial microbes from the Earth Worm Casting tea I made a few posts back. The beneficials are letting me get away with 84F water temps in that thing. I once even plumbed a water chiller to an EZ Cloner and set it at 68F and was slimed.
Talking about temps, my UV light in the rez is letting me get away with high temps too. Rez is at 78-79F.

Happy to report to you guys that I pulled off a second round of healthy clones from my EZ Cloner. Get this, I didn't even clean the unit nor empty it. I used the same water and just added more EWC tea. Here is something else remarkable; I noticed that a long piece of root had broke off a cutting and was floating in the water. It's been floating in there for 3 days and it is still pearl white. It's not even rotting and if there was slime it would of been all over that organic fuel.
Mad scientists, here we go. ;-)
Jupiter, welcome to the slime club.
Keep it simple with the ewc tea. 3 gallons of RO water. Add 1-2 cups of ewc and just a tad of molasses and that is it. Do not add humic acids or kelp. It is food for the microbes including the slime.
Do not add any molasses (food) to the cloner. You only want to add a couple of cups of ewc tea every 3rd day to replenish. Do not feed the microbes within, just replace them. The food could of been your problem. Always clean your unit with Physan20. I add power cloner solution made by botanicare to the water and away it goes. That is it.
Dont know dont care..
I can tell you RR has offered his help and experience to me and MANY others and asked for nothing in return
He has offered to send me weekly dosages absolutely free...
