Clonex Clone Solution 1-0.6-1 | Clone and Seedling Nutrient, 2.5 or 5 Gallon

Clonex Clone Solution for Propagation Rooms That Feed Every Day

A cutting has no roots to feed with, so whatever it drinks has to be gentle. This is a clone and seedling nutrient from HydroDynamics International, made in the USA. The guaranteed analysis reads 1-0.6-1, with nitrogen split between nitrate and ammoniacal forms. It also carries 1% calcium, 0.2% magnesium and 0.12% sulfur for new cell walls and early leaf color. Iron, manganese, zinc and copper are chelated, so they stay available in a low-strength mix. Boron, cobalt and molybdenum round out the trace elements. Every dose also carries 0.01% vitamin B1 as a non-plant food ingredient. The mix rate is 20 ml per gallon of water, used with each irrigation. The dose can rise to 10 ml per liter once roots start to show. Adjust the finished solution to a pH of 5.5 to 6.5 before it reaches the cuttings.

Clonex Solution per Gallon at Commercial Volume

At that rate a 2.5 gallon jug mixes roughly four hundred seventy gallons of feed, and the 5 gallon pail about twice that. Those volumes match a room that waters trays of plugs or refills several cloner reservoirs every week. In an aeroponic cloner, mix the solution into the reservoir and replace it at each water change rather than topping it up. In rockwool or soilless plugs, soak the media, then let it drain so the stems never sit in standing water. Shake the container well before measuring, since minerals settle in a large jug. A small pump or a tilt stand makes pouring from the bigger containers much easier. Store it in the original container, out of direct sun and away from heat. Feeding stays light because a cutting lives on stored sugars until roots form. Raising the dose too early tends to stall cuttings rather than speed them up. Hydroponic, soil and soilless growers can all run the same rate, which keeps one mix across several benches.

Key Features

• 1-0.6-1 clone feed: Low-strength nitrogen, phosphate and potash sized for rootless cuttings and young seedlings.
• Calcium and magnesium: 1% calcium and 0.2% magnesium support new cell walls as roots and leaves form.
• Chelated micronutrients: Iron, manganese, zinc and copper stay available in a dilute, low-pH mix.
• Vitamin B1: Thiamine at 0.01% is part of every dose.
• Simple mix rate: 20 ml per gallon with each irrigation, adjusted to pH 5.5 to 6.5.
• Works in any propagation system: Aeroponic cloners, rockwool, soilless plugs and soil all take the same rate.
• Bulk containers: 2.5 and 5 gallon sizes cut refills for rooms feeding cuttings daily.
