HydroDynamics Clonex Rooting Compound, 100 ml

HydroDynamics Clonex Rooting Compound is an absolute must if you’re serious about cloning plants. Every cutting I’ve used it on has rooted strong and healthy. It’s super easy to apply, and you can tell it really gives the plants the boost they need to take off. 5 stars because it actually delivers consistent, amazing results — couldn’t be happier!

I feel absolute love for a specific rose which goes by the name of "Black Magic" Roses! They are extremely hard to purchase and if you can, you have to order way in advance, like a year or two and wait all that time just to be told your order is being canceled and you are being refunded because they have no more as they have over ordered the product( Which is now the 6th year in a row they have done this to me)! How is that my fault right? anyway back to the review! I apologize for the tangent!1. Before we begin with directions here is something that all of you needto know as I have been asked this so many times before, which is Abouthow to properly cut a stem.a. For those who do not know the proper way to cut a stem off, You willwant the proper shears for this and make sure they are good qualityand extra sharp as if they are dull you will ruin the whole plant you cut it from.b. If you happen to (like me) acquire a flower from a florist you will want to get thatstem home and under luke warm water (room temperature) you will submergethe stem and take your sharp shears and cut just a half inch off the bottom ina slanted cut as so your flower does not sit directly onto the bottom of the vaseor your stem will not be able to soak up the nutrients it need to grow roots or evensoak up water. Instead it will just die!2. First and foremost DO NOT rush!a. You DO want to apply Clonex generously (by Dipping at least 1 whole inch on thebottom of the cut off stem into the bottle as so you know it has been saturated!).b. When you have done that, you will then want to place this into a small single flowervase.c. If you do not have one you can purchase one at your local florist or hardware store.An even cheaper option is to buy one at your local dolor store like Dollar Tree.You dont need a fancy one.d. If you Rush you WILL end up with a dead stem and NO new flower or tree or whatever else you are trying to grow!3. You will need lots of flower food.a. If you are like me and you dont have alot of money, you can use other alternatives theonly problem is if you cut corners with the flowers you are going to see what happens tothe flower when you try to cut corners!b. Buying a plant food from your local florist or garden center is best! They do have cheapfood for flowers.c. Make sure you buy the appropriate foods tho! If you happen to try and clone roses, youwill need rose food. If you try to clone a vegetable, you will need vegetable food. If youtry to clone a tree, you will need the appropriate foods for it.d. Basically what I am saying is some plants require a very acidic type food and nutrient forthem to grow and thrive as well as make flowers and so on, and some cannot have anyor too much acidity or they will die. If you dont use the appropriate foods you can andwill kill them.e. I see alot of people who have said this does not work, well they are full are it, or theyjust do not know the proper steps to take!4. Making water for the Vase.a. Before you place the stem into the vase you will want to make up the water and plantfood solution.b. You will add luke warm(or ROOM TEMPERATURE) water along with the plant food intothe water and let it dilute.c. You will then mix the water and plant food in the water until it has dissolved.d. After it has diluted by mixing it and letting it settle for a minute or so you will then take the next steps!5. Placing the Stem in the vase.a. After you place your Stem in the vase you will leave it in there until you see it actually root!b. You will want to change the water and add more plant food like the above steps in steps4 a-d at least every 3 days so it is not sitting in stagnant water.c. Plants can survive after being cut without water for about three days before they start towilt unless they are left in the sun which in that case will wilt even sooner! So on that noteyou will want the freshest cut flower to do this with or you will wind up with a rotting flowerin the water, regardless of how cautious you are!6. Patience is A Virtue!a. If you are as impatient as some people are here you can take your chances and actuallyplace the flower in the dirt after submerging the stem in the clonex, but I would not suggest it!b. In the cut stage you dont want to risk it as if you forget to water the flower even one day asthese need to be watered twice a day or more depending on the temperature outside thenyou risk the entire process going to crud!c. Its up to you. You either want results or dont!7. When to place it in the ground!a. Only after you actually see roots(which can be really tiny) will you actually place the stemin the dirtb. Before placing the stem in the ground you will need to maker sure the ground has been that has beenaerated and fertilizer has been added to it!c. If it is too cold outside make sure you have a pot that is big enough for your plant.d. The best way to measure a pot so you know it will be big enough is to take the rootsand measure it with a ruler on a piece of paper then mark the other side of the paperuntil you have a whole circle then you will take that and figure you will need at least twoinches bigger then that circle(as you will need to make sure you have enough room for growth).e. If you have grown this indoors, you are probably wondering (If you dont already know)when to place this new plant of yours outside to acclimate to the weather(as you cannotbring the plant outside and just place it in a hole right away! You need to give it at least2 or 3 days to adjust to your yard before placing it in the ground!f. You will dig a hole that is at least 1' deep and if the stem is bigger you will want to dig a holethat is big enough for your stem!g. Do not try to cut corners like I have said again and again above as you will not get the resultsyou are looking for! It will only end in disaster!If you have questions please feel free to ask as I will always be available to answer any questions! Also if anyone feels I am missing something please let me know as I feel like I have missed something! I guess I will figure it out!

🚨🚨🚨🚨 IF YOU HAVE A HOYA THAT IS DIFFICULT TO ROOT THIS IS THE PRODUCT FOR YOU. I had a Nabawenensis variegated cutting that would NOT root. I thought I tried everything until I watched a tiktok of a guy potting up a Hoya cutting and in the background of the video I seen the clonex bottle and said ahh haaaa that is the secret. Sure enough this product has amazing reviews. I tried for over a month rooting the Hoya cutting with no success. Not even any swelling in the stem. Literally 2 days after I used clonex along with a grow light and prop box my baby is finally starting to show signs of root growth. I’m thankful for clonex because the cutting was not cheap. I will be a forever customer with clonex!!!

I grow a wide variety of plants. On things that are pretty easy to root, it works well. But not uniformly effective particularly on woody plants/shrubs.

Wow! This rooting gel works so well. I have lots of indoor houseplant cutting that would not root. I started dipping in the clonex gel and even the stubborn water rooting began to work. It’s super easy to apply, you just dip the stem and go.

Works well , would recommend

I love this for my starts! Repeat user

I’ve always used powder- it’s efficient, unbothered, & doesn’t cling like a jealous lover. But after watching a YouTuber dip dozens of African violet leaves into Clonex with ease, and elegance, I finally gave in.The gel? Violet, glossy and very clingy. You’ll know exactly where it touched- because it sticks -a lot! Too much, really. I went through half the jar on a few stems. It’s thicker than expected and not very viscous, & for the price, that’s disappointing.Ease of use? Sort of. Economical? Not at all. I may use a paint brush to apply it next time. But honestly? I’ll probably go back to powder.Clonex is fine. Just not for the frugal.
