That's what I love about this little hobby. You can kind of do whatever you can think up, no rules. And I love tinkering with shit.
Like your setup. I have a cloner that looks identical to yours. But I bought mine finished. I was going to make mine, but I got in a hurry. You attached a light to yours, I attached a fish aquarium heater to mine. LOL

Thanks.

That's cool. Does it work pretty good for you?
It works pretty well.
I'm in a basement that stays 58° in the winter. So it brings my water temp up in cloner to a more desirable 70 something for quicker root growth. Works pretty good. Attaches to inside of bucket with suction cups. Put a little "raincoat" over the very top where you adjust temps.

I have an update on the Rainbow Driver ladies coming up in a bit. But first, I wanted to take a second and post up a fail. We all like to show when we're doing well on a grow, but it's a little more humbling to put a fail out for everyone to see.

While the RD ladies are flowering, I decided to use that time to sprout and veg up some Mr Nice Black Widow plants in search of that really stellar pheno. I decided to run them in solo cup perlite hempys. Then I got busy and started neglecting them.

This picture is just after transplanting into fresh coco. They're now on the Masterblend diet and I expect they'll come back strong in due time, I'd expect a week for a full bounce back.

See if you can guess which are the Black Widow... :ROFLMAO:

Now for a bit of an update on the RD.

Week 5, day 1.


You can hardly tell that I stripped the shit out of them a week ago.

Starting to see some yellow creeping into the clones, tells me they're ready to shoot roots any time.

And speaking of...looks like roots to me.

Haha. I just don't want to trick anyone into thinking I'm a good grower. The stuff I do well is from not doing it well and learning a lesson.

Plants are looking amazing man. Awesome job. The cloner is badass, too!

Alright guys and gals, I'm 100% sold on this bucket aerocloner.

I have some things to tweak, but this is it for me when it comes to cloning. The set it and forget it approach works perfectly with my general laziness.

Edit:

If you're noticing the lack of roots on the right 4, that particular pheno is slower to root when cloning. I've cloned it 3 times already and each time it has been slower.
