The Three Main Ways to Clone Plants

Cloning is the act of taking a cutting from one plant and growing a new plant from that cutting which retains all the same genetic characteristics of the plant the clipping was taken from. Many people use cloning in order to have a predictable crop rather than taking a chance on different seeds which may or may not end up having the characteristics you are looking for in your new plant. There are three main ways in which growers clone their plants: deep water culture, coco cubes, and aeroponics.

The deep water culture method of cloning is relatively popular due to its ease of use and good results. Many growers report 100% clone survival rates with this system, however each system is different and of course each grower is different. With any clone machine or system, each grower will get different results because of the different environmental factors that can change from grower to grower. Deep water culture (DWC) clone machines work by suspending the new clipping into water or nutrient solution which is constantly oxygenated with air stones. Normally a clipping would drown being completely dipped in water, but the air stones transport the much needed oxygen these clippings need through the air stones.

Coco cubes are also very popular and are considered the easiest system to use. You simply use small coco cubes with a small hole in the top to insert the clipping. The coco cubes are placed into a tray and the tray is typically set on a heating mat in order to maintain the preferred cloning medium temperature of 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit. From here the coco cubes just need to be kept moist and the clippings should show roots within a week for two.

The third and most popular cloning method is using aeroponics. Aeroponic clone machines include the ez cloner and the daisy cloner. These types of cloning machines use the aeroponic system of hanging the plant stem/clipping in air. Water is then sprayed onto the plant clipping in order to maintain as close to 100% humidity within the chamber as possible. By hanging the plant stem into air and spraying water onto the stem, the new clones/clippings are able to get a very high amount of oxygen which helps clone survival rates.

Whichever type of cloning system you decide on, it is very important to maintain a good growing medium temperature and as high humidity as possible. That way you should see success with whichever method you end up using.

Ancient Hydroponics Gardens

The word “hydroponics” is derived from two Greek words: cidra, meaning water, and punikos, meaning labor; thus, literally “waterworks.” Contrary to popular belief, hydroponic gardening is an ancient form of agriculture, going back 3,000 years. There are references to the cultivation of plants directly in water in Egyptian records dating back to the time of the New Kingdom and the “Woman-King,” Pharoah Hatshepsut around 1460 BCE.

The best-known grow systems of the ancient world were the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Also known as the Gardens of Semiramis, the Hanging Gardens operated on the principles of hydroponic gardening. Reputed to have been located near Al-Hillah in present-day Iraq, this elaborate grow system has become regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

The Hanging Gardens were built by King Nebuchadnezzar around 600 BCE. His wife, Amytis, was from Media, whose people were the ancestors of the modern Kurds. The country of Medea was a mountainous one, roughly corresponding to present-day Kurdistan, northern Iran and Azerbaijan. Legend says Amytis became homesick for the mountains and the flora of her homeland; Nebuchadnezzar had the Gardens constructed for her. According to Greek historians of the time, the Hanging Gardens, a water pipe led into a well tower, which supplied water via a number of vaults for fruit trees growing in a layer of asphalt.

Centuries later, Italian traveler Marco Polo, who reportedly visited China during the late 13th Century CE and introduced pasta to Italy, commented on what he called the “Floating Gardens.” Around the same time on the other side of the world, the Mexica – one of the native peoples who later formed the Aztec Empire of Mexico – built a city called Tenochtitlan on the shores of Lake Texcoco. Where Mexico City stands today, the Mexica constructed an extensive urban center that included a type of early hydroponic system upon which plants were cultivated on the surface of the water. These early Mexican “floating gardens” were developed out of necessity, because arable land was at a premium in the area. Called chinampas, they were actually small, artificial islands that were created by scooping up mud from the marshy areas bordering the lakes. This mud was ultimately held together by tree roots; food plants were cultivated on these “islands,” and were amazingly productive.

The modern history of hydroponics actually begins in 1627, when Sir Francis Bacon’s Sylva Sylvarum was published posthumously. In this treatise, Bacon – an English philosopher and contemporary of Shakespeare – wrote about the cultivation of terrestrial plants without soil. Although Bacon died before his theories could be explored, the idea of water culture caught on as an area of scientific study throughout the remainder of the 17th Century. By the 1860s, German botanists Julius von Sachs and Wilhelm Knop had perfected the first nutrient solutions for soilless agriculture, and modern hydroponic gardening was born.

Which end of a teardrop would be more hydro dynamic to flow through water?


Would the pointy end move through water faster or the rounded end?

depends on the speed at low speed the rounded end pushes the water around it and the water closes in behind and pushes it forward. Sailboats have what they call the hull speed. It uses this phenomena. it is difficult to exceed this speed.
At higher speeds where the water will not close in fast enough, the pointed end may be the best. However if this is true, how come ships have a bulb nose below the water.

Hydro-cyclone - Centrifugal Filters [3 out of 5]

Hydrocyclones also known as "sand separators", centrifugal filters are mainly for the removal of particles such as sand, and other solids from the irrigation water. They are ideal for situations where a pile of sand, is present in water.

How it works? Dirty water enters the filter where swirl around the inside of a cylinder. The centrifugal force causes the sand particles to move towards the outer edge of the bottle, which slide slowly down the side of a reservoir below. Hydro-cyclone centrifugal filters are reasonably cheap, very simple and very effective to remove the sand from the water.

Since many wells pump water with sand, It is not uncommon for a small amount of sand to pass through a centrifugal filter. In the case of drip irrigation you should always add a Backup disc filter when using a centrifugal filter(sand separator) as a safety precaution. A sand separator filter (hydro-cyclone) is used in combination with a filter media after it has an excellent combination. The hydro-cyclone removes the sand filter media and removes the material organic. It should be noted that selection of hydro-cyclone sand separator filter must be closely combined the Flow rate [m3/h or gph] of the system or the filter will not work properly. Always check with the vendor working flow-rate/pressure head loss curve guidelines on the design of a hydro-cyclone filtration system for your irrigation systems, remember, a minimum pressure head-loss is necessary to achieve effective sand separation.

Plant Nutrients Are Important Hydroponics Supplies

Hydroponic gardening is a form of indoor gardening that uses no soil yet is highly successful at growing a huge variety of plants.  One of the hydroponics supplies you will need to keep in good supply if you are a hydroponic gardener is plant nutrient.  Nutrients are hydroponics supplies that are formulated so that plants will respond in specific ways, so you can customize the nutrient to each of your plants' life cycles to give them everything they need.

Nutrient is another name for plant food, or fertilizer.  The difference with nutrient is that, when used in a hydroponic gardening application, the nutrient is dissolved in water, and this solution is sprayed or washes over the plant roots, and in this way they can take in the food and grow.  Because nutrient is constantly consumed by the plants, it is a hydroponic supply that needs to be replenished on a regular basis.  

Nutrient is a hydroponic supply that comes in a plethora of different varieties.  Bio Genesis plant nutrient is a hydroponic supply that is available in an organic formula.  Certain types of Bio Genesis nutrient is geared toward helping plants increase their resistance to stress while improving root growth as well as the fruit and flower quality.  

Another in the range of nutrient hydroponics supplies is offered by Advanced Nutrients.  Their Big Bud nutrient is used to increase flower size and weight, and the flowers will grow faster than average.  This might be an appropriate hydroponic supply for an indoor gardener growing florist flowers, for example, or for someone growing vegetables that produce more fruit if there are more flowers, such as tomatoes.  

In order for your hydroponics system to be complete, you will need other types of hydroponics supplies as well as hydroponics equipment.  Most systems need a reservoir as part of the hydroponics equipment.  This basin holds the solution in place.  Some type of a pump and aerator is also required hydroponics equipment in many systems.  The pump recirculates the solution from the reservoir up to a tray where plants' crowns are suspended over the solution in an ebb and flow hydroponics system, for example.  An aerator is used to pump oxygen into the solution, which helps plants grow even faster.  Trays or nets are hydroponics equipment that is used to keep the plants out of the solution, yet keeps the roots at the appropriate level so they can soak up the nutrient solution.  

Hydroponics equipment and nutrient is available from hydroponics supplies stores online.
