1 plant 2 cups - another piss easy cloning method.

[ohlordyeah_420]

So I've never been comfortable cloning. It's always been a grey area for me and when cutting plants it was always a 'will they root... wont they root' scenario where I never really felt comfortable with a method. I have an aerocloner and have had various success. Some strains love it and some hate it.

So I saw this 'cup in cup' method from the dude grows show and it seemed so easy that I thought I'd practice it. Now I have too many clones.

The cups I bought were from asda and cost £1 for 15 I think.

Step 1



Cups: I grabbed a transparent beer cup and made drainage holes in the bottom using a sharp tool. I made 5 or 6 little holes just like if it was a pot.

Step 2



I grabbed another cup and blacked it out using tape but I guess if you could get am opaque cup the same size you wouldn't have to.

Step 3



Filled them with coco and gave them a little light watering with some liquid myco and a few microbes (recharge)

Step 4



Cut my clones but made sure they had at least 2 nodes and were pretty sturdy so I could pierce the coco when pushing the stems in and not breaking a floppy stem.



Step 5



Dipped them in clonex and then shoved them into the coco.

Step 6



Under a dome with a mist of water. Leave for 3 days and then crack open the dome and I keep cracking it open a little bit and after a week they are dome-less


Step 7
10 days later roots. One didn't root until 3 weeks but still rooted in the end. All others were ready in ten days. No potting up needed yet either. Keep them alive in the cups until ready to pot up.



This one didn't root as quick as the others but here we are eventually

I like that too. Also I really like there's no potting up until you're ready.

Good idea to use a cup in a cup. I've seen a similar method using an opaque cup and a large clear lidded cup from a certain, overpriced coffee vendor.

I think I'll be trying this in the future.

nice one dude. leadfarmer73 calls these peekaboo cups. work great

keep up the great work

i do similar to 2acres and use a yogurt pot inside another yogurt pot with the option of fitting a lid for seeds or used upside down as individual RH domes

for reference

Superb work.

What lighting do you use for them?
