Clonex gel says 3.3g per liter of 3-butyric acid
What percentage is this
I’m comparing it against Hormex 8 and 16 ( 0.8%and 1.6% )

Assuming the same density as water (close enough 
)
3.3/1,000 (x100 to get percent) = 0.33%

@Gpaw i see some on here use Hormex 8 ( 0.8% )
Why wouldn’t you use Hormex 16 ( 1.6% )
Upping my game for receiving envelope tek ( unrooted cuts )

I think it depends on what you are cloning.
The stronger formulations are generally for ‘woody’ stems
(…like that French pole vaulter?.. 
)
and the weaker for green stems.

Dipping the cuts in the jar is how you spread HLVD. Ask me how I know 
Gotta pour some out in a small container to use. Or use a syringe or something. Same with the Hormex, tho that’s at least a powder.
What’d you wrap the cut in?

After the double dip I split a Rapid Rooter down one side and slot the stem in. 10-12 days later rooted clones ready to transplant. Hasn’t failed me yet.
Good call on decanting the Clonex @HolyAngel

Has anyone tried foop cloning gel? I have a bottle of that and clonex. Bummed out though the foop has a six month expiration date on it so I doubt I’ll get much use at all… wasn’t cheap either.
Been using the foliage spray tho at least
What’s the ingredients of foop gel ?

I’m in the line at the airport once I sit down on the plane I’ll google it. It’s a bunch of natural stuff I think.

@GrouchyOldMan are you ruffing up the stem in any way ?
I’ve been dislodging hairs by using plastic plant id marker and lightly shaving stem up and down befor applying clonex
When I visualise , it’s seams like a good idea
Little micro pin holes for clonex to penetrate ?

Nope, I used to but found that it didn’t seem to make any difference. I use bleach to sterilize the clippers, have a glass of distilled icewater ready to accept the cuts, then straight to the double dips.
I haven’t seen HLVD here, but I’m going to take your advice to decant a bit of clonex rather than dipping the jar from now on.
FWIW, I’m usually just cloning my own plants in the course of a breeding project, so I don’t deal much with cuts from outside.

I’m not sure but I think seeds can be infected to , to some degree ( scarey if true )
