Cuttings.

Ok, I don't know shit about growing so from this point on I'm gonna just quote the gardener I take pic's for
So as many have heard I use to grow a shroom or two
Well a few years ago I came up with the Martha as some have heard soon after I came up with the Poor Man's Pod or PMP as it's called.
Well the first Martha proto type was this thing well I started thinking (and I'm amazed nobody did before) the needs for cuttings and shrooms are almost exactly the same. I firmly believe in constant airflow with shrooms and with cuttings which must be done without lowering humidity. This is of major importance cause it helps stop any kind of rot that may start.
Take your cutting using rockwool or cubes which I will show you both in a bit. Now take the cutting as normal taking a branch end about 4 inches long and taking off a leaf at the bottom of the 4 inches and cutting off the tip there. Dip in gel (I hear rootech works well) and mist it down good then into the chamber. the cool mist runs 24/7 and the ultrasonic comes on for a hour and a half every 8 hrs.
Now the ultrasonic does two things, it raises the humidity and it mist down the cuttings with a mist that is much finer them a shitty ass spray bottle. There are no droplets just a fine coat of mist. the last thing it does is it keeps you the fuck out. Stick the cuttings in and keep the humidifiers full. The ultrasonic should be hooked up above the cool mist outlet so the fog drops into the cool mist airstream and mixes good in the chamber air.
After a week cut the time down to 45 min every 3 hrs.
Then a few days after that or at the 10 day mark shut off the humidifiers and take off the top and let em get use to the light.
At the 14 day mark you should have
With this you can also take them any size you want and I am talking a branch if you want to. Here is a fairly good size one in a plug I was talking about earlier
Oh yeah I just cut hole in the top cover with plastic and stick some floros on top or if it gets hot put a couple 2x4's under em so air can flow under them.
Enjoy
One more thing you can use it to raise the little ones till you have room if needed

they have a Cloning Solution, where you can prune off a peice, dip it into the solution and put it in the soil and water it and it will root fairly fast

Fuck, the person you take pics for came up with martha? And PMP? Holy shit. I have been meaning to find out, though: why is it called Martha?

I don't think pea gravel would be to good of a starting medium to start roots in. I've seen it used instead of geolite in hydro systems for that it works ok.

Nice tek. Thanks for sharing. I've often wondered how mushrooms and plants would do in the same area, it seems highly benificial to both as far as gas exchange.

You know I haven't had a difference in speed between the rapid rooters and the rockwool. i like both to be honest. As far as what to put them in or dip I haven't found anything faster then rootech gel. most likely cause it has the highest amount of rooting hormone but there are a million ways that work well.

Try willow branch water on two or three cuttings just for the hell of it. Willows have a natural rooting hormone. And if you water your plants with it it's supposed to help the root system.

brewing alcohol in the same room as pot plants will produce more co2 than mushrooms.

Just crushed it up and soaked it in filterd water for two days. (then I hear overnight is good enough go fig)
Works really well for soaking cubes in before taking cuttings.

Badass. I know exactly where a huge willow tree is. Its right by the lake, we used to swing in it when i was a kid.
Im going to have to pay that ole girl a visit.
So the willow water does the trick with no other kinds of things needed right?

Ok, I should have shut the fuck up cause that took forever to find. Willow water has a 20% higher rate then plain water used in root cubes.
To make it. Remove some of this years branches and remove the leaves. Cut the branches into 1 inch lengths and fill a quart jar. Fill the jar with water and let soak for 24 hrs. Use the water as a rooting hormone.
For even higher rate of success use the willow water to mix a commercial rooting hormone rather then plain water

Here's another way
----------------------------------------- Cut off some branches cut them into 1'' or 2'' pieces boil under water gets darker let sit overnight strain out willow pieces -----------------------------------------
That's the one I always heard

That's just some old country shit, haha. I looked it up on google and was surprised to see how common it is for people to use it.
