Post by: bezevo on February 20, 2016, 05:46:14 AM

SO....How do you feel about Clone-X on cactus cuttings and pups ?

Who has used it  and how did it do ?

Pros and cons ?

 I am going to try it on this HUGE  Real T.Pachanoi Cutting .

and some other smaller cuts and pups .

I've never used it on cacti but I know some people do with decent results.

I prefer to just "let em do their thing". Cacti are the eternal teachers of patience in my opinion. :)

Yeah, I never have used it & they do just fine.

It would be interesting to do a side by side comparison, one with the hormone & one without...

I never use it on cacti, they just root so well on their own never saw a reason.

I agree with oplopanax, this could be for the interest of science.

well I  used the  clonex on that big cut  and  stuck I in a pot of soil . left it in a cool dark  room for rest of winter just got it out ..no clue if it has made roots yet..? just don't want to disturb it buy digging it up to look


 but a few months ago  I did  take to two Farley fresh 12" Juul's cuts and painted one cut with clonex . I laid both of them on there sides between some butcher paper in a cool dark room to callus up. tell this spring . the clonex  cuts callused base was bulging some and had a few tiny roots poking out  . I potted them both up  .

UPDATE !  it has  been almost a year ,they both rooted  fine . I se no difference with this clone .
