HydroRed's DIY Bubble Cloner (under $35)

[Hydro]

That tote is sweet. Rugged as hell. I picked one up also for a fogponics cloner. I couldn't find the $3.50 deal and ended up paying $5.98 plus tax.

I thought the same. I was cutting the holes in the lid and realized the lid alone on this is more rugged than most of the totes Ive bought in the past haha

so apparently you can't buy just one hole saw, you have to get the whole kit, lol.

I got mine at Harbor Freight, I think the whole kit was $12.00, I believe one hole saw at Lowes was higher than that if I remember correctly.

They have 2 of them and I believe I have the one that has the bigger hole saws. Still both kits work well.

They have a 11 piece and a 18 piece. Believe it or not I have both, just looked. Did not realize I had both. I think I bought one and it did not have the 2 1/4 inch bit that I needed so I bought the 18 piece.

Both are good kits , just look at the sizes that you need to make sure the kit has the Bit you need.

Figured i toss up my lil bubble cloner. Just took some candyland clones. I got more clones than my lil bubbler can handle. lol Im gonna either go with the root riots in a dome or maybe i will dig around and see if i got stuff to make a bigger one for the rest.

This the one?

If youre looking to buy from a brick n mortar, you can get the 1/4" T's from Walmart. The 1/2" barbed 90's and grommets can be bought at most larger hardware stores like Lowes or Home Depot. Both the air stones and the 1/4" tubing can also be purchased at Walmart.

ultrasonic foggers. Are more expensive, but see some really liking them, just wanted your opine. I just read about some problems with it, so the one you make is still the better deal. lol

Never used one TBH. I imagine it will work as well as any other considering a wet stem is a wet stem. Probably higher in DO but for the pricetags associated with them, I'll likely never know haha
I suppose you could probably DIY one for relatively cheap if you kept the cloner small.

Apparently its one of them deals you got to figure out a timer, as if you leave it on all time, too much fog, displaces the oxygen? like smothers the roots. I read a couple diff deals on it, low flow high microns or something and nasa has figured out that 50 is the optimum for root growth? I think I"ll stick with yours, I been lookin at an extra empty tote for a minute now, new Harbor freight in town, get the hole saw set.
