I bought a seed starter kit from Burpee that comes with coco plugs and I bought an extra brick when those run out.
But last time I mixed the coco with some promix and I like that better.
Oh, you’re asking about clones… I use Root Riot plugs atm, cause they were a little cheaper. I soak them in a mix I make first that has myco and humic acid and trace elements. Then put that tray on a heat mat and dome. Not my favorite thing but my cloning success has been pretty steady for a while now. I use cloning powder instead of gel.
I made an aero cloner and it works but I need another airstone. It took longer than the tray last time I used it. The tray and dome were twice as fast and with really nice roots.
I just need to get my mist spread out better.

Never seen root riot plugs I’ll have to look them up
I have used lots. aero cloners, high pressure cloners, rockwool, soil, coco, they all work great but try to keep it simple now.
If its just a few for myself then i just stick the cutting in some promix and and put a bag over the pot and forget about it for a few weeks and the are good to go. if its spring and putting out a bunch ill use rockwool. The cloners work good but I just always found it a hassle having to make space for it in the grow tent.

I have also tested rooting hormones and again found the the cheap ones are just as good as the most expensive ones.

Any moist media will do. You can just cut and place into regular potting soil and most will root. I use perlite or rockwool cubes. Rockwool cubes are especially convenient.

I go straight into a seedling pot of coco with clones as hormone and roots excel to water in , no lids or bags just a heat mat , takes a bit longer but I wanted to see how lazy I could get and the result is very lazy lol.

Ive always used rapid rooters from general hydroponics.
I am with allot of those guys. Water is the best. No need for anything else.
Nice roots @Grohio : )
