Rdwc, ionic grow and cloning questions

[LazyNhazy]

Question 1: I just got ionic grow and was wondering if I have to mix with tap water or can I use my RO with An cal mag xtra with microbes?

2: Can I use tiger bloom for bloom portion of the grow or should I be looking to get ionic bloom?

3: I'm attempting my first clone of a photo blueberry cheesecake, how long should I wait before giving up on rooting?

I used cloning cubes and the leaves are still really good and they turned to face light. But it's been almost 2 weeks and I'm not seeing roots out of the sides yet.

Thanks all.

Hey dude i personally run my reservoirs sterile but ive seen plenty of growers use beneficial bacterias with ro water.

I dont see why you couldnt use tiger bloom instead of ionic. As long as the npks are somewhat similar.
For example i use ghe flora 3 part and theres more N in the micro than in the grow.

Never grown a photo or taken a clone myself. @stoney 91 @Prophetiko how long do clones generally take to root

Thanks @woody what would be the advantage of a sterile Hydro?

No bacteria good or bad. Im basically using chemicals to kill bad bacteria, plythium etc.
Your beneficial bacteria does that job.

Im also running hydroguard, will that kill my good bacteria?

Sorry to keep asking questions but not a lot of info as far as mixing different nutes and microbes.

No mate hydroguard contains beneficial bacterias that fight off plythium etc. I would prob use it if i could get it here. But im in europe

it can take clones anywhere from 7-10 days to root sometimes a bit more high humidity and decent temps are the key to success also hardening them off over a few days so they dont wilt after coming out of the humidity dome
( just seen that its been rooting for nearly two weeks if it still looking healthy and not starting to wilt id leave it to do its thing or if possible try taking another cutting )
