Cloning with Aeroponics - Propagation

Aeroponics is an ideal way to clone your plants. The cloning process works by cutting pieces of your mother plant to create new plants. In the past, this process was much more difficult, especially with plants like cactus. Aeroponics has made cloning safer, cleaner, and fast root development due to a highly oxygenated, moist, and nutrient rich environment.

One important note is that plants must have access to fresh oxygen to increase their growth. In fact, the word aeroponics is derived from the Greek meanings of 'aero' (air) and 'ponic' (labour). Co2 is quite possible the greatest asset of aeroponics. It increases production to up to 50% depending on the type of plant being processed. Websites like Dealzer.com offer 2 forms of Co2. One is the Co2 system itself which releases Co2 on a times basis, and the other is a Co2 w/ PPM controller. PPM stands for parts per million. Depending on the plant, it is a nice function to operate the PPM on a Co2 system. The Co2 functionality is a must to have when using a grow box to grow any type of plant, but the Co2 w/ PPM controller is ideal and will help in having absolute control over your hydroponic system and plant life.

Overall, aeroponics is one of the most common form of hydroponic systems. It is a simple yet effective way to grow plants fast. Other methods of growing plants in a hyrdroponic system include:

Static solution culture

Continuous flow solution culture

Passive subirrigation

Ebb and flow / Flood and drain subirrigation

Top irrigation

Deep water culture
