Homemade Aquaponics cloning tote for £20

[disco survivor]

Had an old Tote box and pond pump in the shed so decided to make an aquaponics cloning station. As I already had the 2 main items, it only cost me £20 for some pipe and some cheap sprinkler heads off ebay.

 

Made the neoprene disks from a cheap Decathlon gym mat (already had it) and cut the ends off single seed plant pots (again, already had them). 

 

Cuttings have been in the tote for a couple of days now and appear to be doing well.

Looking good dude, well done on finding a RUB that doesnt leak! When I made mine I couldn't find one that didnt piss water everywhere

Love a little DIY

Nice one, my homemade aerocloner works great. I’ve rooted cuts in rockwool and root riots as well as bare stems. Pretty much the same as yours, I have a dome with mine, but not really needed

2 weeks on and I'm seeing some roots !! 

 

All the cuttings are going strong with a 100% success rate (up to now).

 

Next question.....what do I do with 21 plants? Mate who gave me the seeds (20 year old Malawi Gold seeds) told me this South African land base strain is getting rare so don't want to just throw them away (don't have any room in the garden unfortunately).

 

Guerrilla Grow perhaps?

Nice mate

 

Have you got no one you can donate them too? If not there's always the flower beds in the town centre

No one unfortunately. I don't smoke it nor does anyone in my family so wouldn't know who to ask. 

I'm going to find a spot off the beaten track and plant them. Might be tempted to go back in a few months or just leave them be.

@disco survivor Sounds like a plan, i'm planning to stick a cut out in the wild soon as it dry up a bit in the fields so i can scope a spot out.

 

Good luck with what you choose in the end
