Homemade Hydroponic Cloner
This Video is from the Youtube channel: “HowToHydroponics”.
A simple hydroponic cloner that can be built by just about anyone. This little cloner will get the job done just like to big expensive ones but at a fraction of the price. Don't let people tell you hydroponics is "expensive" or "complicated" because it isn't.
Use a cloner like this to turn one plant into many in half the time it would take to start one from seed.
when drilling through plastic have the drill spinning counter clockwise. It will melt the plastic instead of cutting it, much smoother and effective.
Correct, works very easy and very clean when you do it this way. But same comments when you want to use the styrofoam plugs….
Nice tip thanks !
Thanks for sharing, I’ve always wondered how to get better cutouts!
Top idea
Just wanted to share this tip too. I’ts changed my life. Haha. Works like a charm every
time
is it necessary to include the bubbling system?
No, you can use a small water pump instead with a stack riser and a 360 spray head.
1:31 you can burn through styrofoam or just use some heated metal … there’s no need for drilling and it might even be harmful
Put your drill in reverse then cut hole for picks
For the neopremes a cheap solution is just cut slices off a pool noodle with slits half way to feed the stem in, very cheap and just one makes plenty plugs😉
What about the kids!!!
Man, best tip ever
Cut holes in reverse next time won’t have the cutting issue
Drill the holes backwards next time
Got to be honest man that looks really sloppy. Try getting a pilot bit and drilling in reverse next time. Also you would have been better off heating up the saw or just pushing it through the foam with the weight of your hand on a flat surface.
Great video, thanks 😊
The secret in drillivng the holes is put the drill in reverse, cleaner holes even if you’re doing it in plastic.
would like to have some cloning lab at home.
Question when cloning do you put in the water ? Or above?
Also how do u figure out how much nute’s with water to the size you build?
Tip – cut the cutting underwater so a air bubble doesn’t form in the stem.
You can use Green Styrofoam, way less mess…😁💨💨✌️
Do you have to have the cloner under lights?
Pool noodles form the dollar store work great and cut super easy.
Just needed to use the drill bit to center the door hole saw bit.
I bought a fridge organser a air stone and some foam . Works everytime
Run your hole saw in reverse and youll avoid all the tear out when cutting plactic
Thanks for Answering the Question , should the Stems touch the Water !
