Rooting Cubes for Cloning Kit - Biodegradable Root Booster for Fast Root Growth - Advanced Cloning Hormone Rockwool Alternative - 30 1x1 inch Root Starter Seed Starter Plugs for Cloning Trays

My jade plant broke at the large stem in the dirt and I wrapped them in these and it healed beautifully.

I ordered these last fall, along with a rooting compound, because I had two wild hibiscus plants removed from my horse yard. I feared that transplanting the hibiscus at that time of year just might not work, so I clipped some cuttings and left them in water until the rooting system arrived. Then I followed the instructions as best I could. I had some difficulty with the planting cups, as they seemed too thin. Once the cuttings were done as well as I could, I put them in jars with a little water and left them outside on the patio.I was doubting, I must admit, but last week I checked on the cuttings, and guess what?! ROOTS!!!! I can't wait to try more on more cuttings from various plants in my yard. This is the first time a rooting product has worked for me!

I used the cubes inside of stem rooting plastic things that clip around the stem of a rose plant but they didn't work. I think I did it wrong. I don't think it was the product.

King Midas, these things are turds.The design is seriously questionable but the worst part is they are not helpful in the cloning and propagating lands: seeing these in the clone room will actually peeve you off after a while because they pull root about as well as a Palm tree in Saskatchewan. They are super annoying in the land of crazy ideas. They are unconstitutional. They inhibit my freedom of speech because I am not permitted to drop the profanity around this product that I would like to. Shame on you king Midas.Don’t say this is a substitute to rock wool, which sucks in itself, but come on amigos. Unfortunately I actually like your rooting gel king Midas, that I would recommend to everyone reading this. Just Not your goofy rooting pad things here. I’m assuming these little turds are just treated in that other good product of yours but the concept just isn’t solid.I’m pretty sure this company isn’t called king Midas maybe but I can’t be sure. For sure I apologize if I’m calling you by the wrong name company that makes these weird things.I reviewed this with Obi-Wan Kenobi and incorporated some of his feedback into my comments also. Hope that helps. Thanks again and keep up The good work on the other product.

So let me preface this by saying that I was using these to root Hoya and philodendron cuttings. At first, they worked really well! The design is kind of wierd, and I would fold them in half and put them inside a small cup to create a little pocket for the cutting to sit. I was at about a 90% success rate with them. HOWEVER, I started to get some that would mold and not absorb water well. I had purchased probably 20 boxes of these and started having about 50% of them with mold/mildew all over them. This mold then caused my cuttings to rot and fail.Also, when the cuttings had rooted I was left trying to figure out what to do with the cube when transferring the cutting into it's permanent substrate. I almost exclusively use pon for my hoya and philodendron. At first, I tried just plopping the cube into the pon with the cutting. This worked well for a bit, but ended up rotting most of the hoya and some of the philodendron. Then I would try to pull the cube off of the cutting before potting them up, which just ended up pulling off most of the roots.All in all, I would say to avoid these for rooting these cuttings. They do work for the most part, but simply putting the rooting gel on the cutting and rooting it in a different substrate works just as well with much less work. I've since been lathering the cuttings up in rooting gel and rooting straight in pon, which has given me the same ~90% success rate.

Great value and easy to use. I used these cubes on tropical house plant cuttings. I like how these stay wet and moist for quite awhile. The cuttings rooted within a week and had stronger roots compare to my other cuttings that were propagated in water which also took longer to roots. I am happy with the result and looking forward to trying other products from this company.

I purchased these in attempt to clone a few plants without buying 200 rock wool cubes and an entire jug of cloning gel just to waste it, and well, I feel as if I wasted the money spent on these. It has been a month plus since taking my cuttings and as of now, NOTHING has visibly rooted, and I keep weeding out dead plants until now, when I only have 3 sad looking specimens left and I don't think they are going to survive either.I am going to just buy the clonex and rockwool cubes that I KNOW for a fact work the next time I think I am going to attempt to clone any plants

These are rooting cubes designed to make your rooting of cuttings or clones easier. They are very well made. They came quickly, well packaged, and most of all they worked great for me.I had a 90% success rate without trying that hard to keep plants happy.To successfully clone you must keep the cutting in a higher humidity environment. They do not have roots to uptake water from. So you must keep your cutting's leaves from drying out. You must also pretreat your environment and make sure it is sterile. For those complaints of mold I've read, I would blame the user, not the product. Mine had no mold, not even algae as most Rockwood mediums will do rapidly.Very great product, and for the money, even better... thanks and good luck!!
