GroClone PRODUCT
INFORMATION
GroClone is
NOT just another knock-off of other cloning units already on the market. It IS
NOT an airoponic system or a bubbler system. GroClone IS a new and innovative
approach to cloning plants that provides a tremendous amount of oxygen in a form
that is readily usable by the cuttings. It is not complicated because cloning
doesn't need to be. Simply put, it supplies what a cutting needs to develop
roots. .
GroClone was designed to provide these 4 basic requirements:
|
1) |
RELIABILITY - GroClone can be used
in temperature ranges that can be problematic for other cloning techniques.
GroClone is designed to minimize the absorption of surface temperatures and the
unit’s small water pump adds virtually no additional heat to the reservoir so
the units maintain a temperature that is only 3-5 degrees over ambient
temperature. It has been tested in temperature ranges of up to 85 degrees
constant room temperature and in varying temperatures of 75 to 93 degrees with
100% success in 3-8 days. |
| |
|
2) |
ENERGY EFFICIENCY – The GroClone reservoir holds only two
gallons of water and under most conditions water does not need to be replenished
or changed during the rooting cycle. The small .09 amp pump provides minimal
electricity needs and is adapted to serve double duty as an oxygen infuser,
which eliminates the need for any additional air pumps or bubble
stones. |
| |
|
3) |
SIMPLICITY – GroClone is specifically designed to create an
ideal rooting environment by providing an abundance of continuously diffused
fresh oxygen throughout the water reservoir. This unique method needs no
monitoring and allows the plant cuttings to thrive. It results in a high
continuous success rate of healthy root formation without all the headaches
associated with other techniques. GroClone does not require the use of a dome
and all indicated results have been without the use of supplemental additives.

|
4) |
COMPACTIBILITY – GroClone provides 53 cutting sites in a
small 12x24x4”unit and fits under any standard 2’ lighting fixture which makes
it a perfect tabletop unit. To maximize sites 2 units fit side by side under a
single 4’ fixture providing a capacity for 106 cuttings. The unit requires only
two gallons of water and weighs only 13 lbs. while in operation and can be
easily moved when full. |

There are many different ways to root cuttings or clone plants. However, the
problem with most of them is they operate on strict environmental control
guidelines with tedious monitoring and as a result an individual needs a strong
knowledge of cuttings. Some of these techniques would include the need for high
humidity, conducive to molds, along with tedious watering. Other techniques use
large water pumps in the reservoir that have a tendency to overheat the water
and as a result increase the incidence of stem rot because of lack of oxygen
around the stem, which make these techniques more sensitive to warmer external
temperatures.
Darren P. Designer -
“I've been cloning for 20 years. The reason I designed this product is
because I personally have spent a lot of valuable time and money through trial
and error with different techniques. I wasn't getting the consistent results I
expected or wanted from other cloning techniques. This led to designing the
groClone system, which has met and exceeded my expectations. .” I honestly do
not believe you'll find a better cloning system on the market that will give you
these results."
