Is this a DWC cloner, or does is the water sprayed up and around the root zone from the reservoir?

Aerobic cloner. Water is sprayed in fine mist toward root zone.If you let the plants stay in after roots developed it becone a deep water culture setup .

The water is sprayed up and around the root zone from the reservoir. It works great, I couldn't get the roots to grow at first because my water temp was above 80 degrees due to the system being under a 400watt mh light. I moved it away from the light and the water temp came down to about 70degrees and roots started to grow rapidly. Remember to clean the reservoir after every use. I'm still using this cloner machine.

It is technically possible to extend the line, however I would urge caution in doing this as the drain water will be concentrated in minerals and may cause nutrient lock in plants not suited for high TDS water. It should be fine for use with trees with deep root networks. Please consult with your landscaper or arborist.

Yes it is if you have the water flow set to full flow. Just turn the flow setting down and the water will soak into the ground.

In the picture you'll see a clear container immediately below where the air hose attachment is. bleed the water off with the unit off. It's pretty straight forward

not sure check with the manufacture I started to get growth back took the pump out sprayed it down well and it was back to normal again.

Other reviewers have described overwatering as well, but my problem was always clogging. The only thing I can think of is maybe adjusting the reservoir position to slow down the siphoning. I wonder if the spikes have different size holes...

Difficult to tell. Check the wwater reservoir connecton with machine. Also make sure you drained the stam out throug wand. There is a valve that prevents water from coming out when steam is present. I.e there is preasure build up.

It could be a variety of reasons. check all your hoses and filters and that the lift away is on properly. It could be you are releasing too much water to begin with...It is all trial and error. work with it

Kenneth, it is actually top and side discharge. You can rotate the 'wet end' by removing a few long screws from the other end and turning the discharge 90 degrees. It is a fairly simple task to do, and it just takes a little time. The pump has performed well for me as a side discharge and works effectively on both the low and high settings.

No problem, I use it on a planted 90, with Angels and Discus. There are flow control valves on the inlet and outlet of the pump. Initially I closed off the inlet a little bit, but after a few months I increased the flow, between filter cleanings.

i noticed that on mine also, i just rinse it out when i refill it. plants are doing fine so i assume it works regardless.

I found when you 90 split one side and straight line another it will affect the flow pressure on one side. I am converting all emitters over to orbit adj sprayers and direct line connectors. Much better flow less deviation with water pressure and NO stop flows. You wont like emitters and will love the sprayerss

I actually received a little water with mine! Imagine my surprise when I was looking at the specs on the motor housing and noticed water on my countertops. Appeared to be clear but smelled stagnate (the blue covers had fallen off the threaded cinnectors and allowed the water to run out). Shipping was several days later than promised, but I have not connected pump yet so I dont know what else comes with it (hmph).... sounds like some better QC is in order here. I did get the threaded to barbed connections.

I just use tap water only they well still root 100% work all the time dont see no difference when using clonex try it on my other clone machine root just as the same but when add clonex left water more foam in tube dont like it could be the reason but for me still root same time.when i bought clone king came with direction that said just use tap water been doing that ever sence with no problem whats so ever.just try tap water or might be lighting i use t5 works best for cloning. Its not cause the machine!!! Machine works i think its the way u clone. Hope that helps you if not do some research on internet you could find out lots of good tips that will help thank you I just use tap water only they well still root 100% work all the time dont see no difference when using clonex try it on my other clone machine root just as the same but when add clonex left water more foam in tube dont like it could be the reason but for me still root same time.when i bought clone king came with direction that said just use tap water been doing that ever sence with no problem whats so ever.just try tap water or might be lighting i use t5 works best for cloning.

The water reservoir is not separate from the unit itself. I use distilled water and I'm hoping that will help keep it clean over a period of time.

I mix as directed in a garden sprayer and set it to a stream instead of mist and spray the mound. It is working better than anything I have ever used!

I don't remember. It was not strong enough to lift water from my bathtub up over the window sill so that I could use it on my garden, so I bored a hole right through the side of the house. Working great!
