BRING IN THE CLONES

We borrowed heavily from various gardeners on YouTube in building our Bamboo Clone Machine. Our water is from our own artesian well, we carefully balanced the PH to 6.2 knowing the 82 degree water temperature will rise in PH over the next week.

Today is day number one. We used Clonex for rooting hormone and the only cutters that would cleanly snip the hard bamboo cuttings were some new Xcylite flush-cut wire cutters I purchased recently.

The ART-dne interval timer is set for 50 seconds ON and four-minutes OFF.

Update March 2017:  None of the clone machine bamboo sticks rooted.  Bamboo is weird : )
