Review: Good stuff!! - Works amazing for starting fresh cuttings in rapid rooter plugs. A little goes a long way so theres enough in a bottle to last a long time. You can also dilute it in water and soak your rooting medium. GOOD STUFF!! Review: Works amazingly well for propagation—my go-to rooting gel - I purchased Clonex Rooting Gel because I wanted something reliable to help with propagating both my garden and house plants. My first impression was that it has a thick, easy-to-use gel consistency that coats cuttings well without dripping or making a mess. In daily use, this has worked really well for me. I’ve had noticeably better success rates with cuttings compared to not using rooting hormone, and it seems to give plants a strong, healthy start. It’s especially helpful for more delicate or slower-rooting plants where I want a higher chance of success. I just dip the cutting and plant it as usual, and it’s been very consistent. Overall, I love this stuff. It works great for propagation and has become a staple in my plant routine as a “crazy plant lady.” ## Features - HIGH-PERFORMANCE ROOTING GEL - Clonex Rooting Gel is a water-based formula with the ideal level of IBA.

I used the whole bottle so it might be good for longer than 4 yrs. I never noticed any decrease in the performance, as it always produced pretty well. Some hydro suppliers recommend storing it in the refrigerator, but I never have. I don't use any cloning solution anymore. Go to modularhydro.com to find out why. I don't work for them, just trying to help you out. I bought the $38, 8site cloner and had 8 super healthy rooted clones in 9 days. Never seen anything like it. Check it out. **Q: will clonex rooting gel work on clippings from fruit trees such as gauva or wax apple?** A: I root everything I love with Clonex! Roses, lantanas, wisterias, yellow bells...in other words things I want more than one of. I have never had a failure! One good tip is to keep in the frig and it will last much longer. Good Luck!My Best,Delores. Smithville,Tx **Q: Will this product work on fruit trees....I want to clone this loquat tree but not sure if it will work** A: Things that will work well is get a cutting with a small leaf then cut stem under water at an angle. The more of an angle the better. Use an eyedropper and put some Clonex down your hole in case you rub some off inserting the cutting. Keep moist and use fertilizer cut to about 1/4 strength and mist the cutting 2 times a day. Make at least 3 times the cuttings you wish to keep just in case something goes wrong. Should get about an 80% success rate if you did everything correctly. **Q: For a plumeria cutting would I still let the cutting dry first or dip in clonex right after cutting the plumeria?** A: Right after cutting. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stuff!! *by G***R on March 28, 2026* Works amazing for starting fresh cuttings in rapid rooter plugs.

They are extremely hard to purchase and if you can, you have to order way in advance, like a year or two and wait all that time just to be told your order is being canceled and you are being refunded because they have no more as they have over ordered the product( Which is now the 6th year in a row they have done this to me)! How is that my fault right? anyway back to the review! I apologize for the tangent! 1. Before we begin with directions here is something that all of you need to know as I have been asked this so many times before, which is About how to properly cut a stem. a. For those who do not know the proper way to cut a stem off, You will want the proper shears for this and make sure they are good quality and extra sharp as if they are dull you will ruin the whole plant you cut it from. b. If you happen to (like me) acquire a flower from a florist you will want to get that stem home and under luke warm water (room temperature) you will submerge the stem and take your sharp shears and cut just a half inch off the bottom in a slanted cut as so your flower does not sit directly onto the bottom of the vase or your stem will not be able to soak up the nutrients it need to grow roots or even soak up water. Instead it will just die! 2. First and foremost DO NOT rush! a. You DO want to apply Clonex generously (by Dipping at least 1 whole inch on the bottom of the cut off stem into the bottle as so you know it has been saturated!). b. When you have done that, you will then want to place this into a small single flower vase. c. If you do not have one you can purchase one at your local florist or hardware store. An even cheaper option is to buy one at your local dolor store like Dollar Tree. You dont need a fancy one. d. If you Rush you WILL end up with a dead stem and NO new flower or tree or what ever else you are trying to grow! 3. You will need lots of flower food. a. If you are like me and you dont have alot of money, you can use other alternatives the only problem is if you cut corners with the flowers you are going to see what happens to the flower when you try to cut corners! b. Buying a plant food from your local florist or garden center is best! They do have cheap food for flowers. c. Make sure you buy the appropriate foods tho! If you happen to try and clone roses, you will need rose food. If you try to clone a vegetable, you will need vegetable food. If you try to clone a tree, you will need the appropriate foods for it. d. Basically what I am saying is some plants require a very acidic type food and nutrient for them to grow and thrive as well as make flowers and so on, and some cannot have any or too much acidity or they will die. If you dont use the appropriate foods you can and will kill them. e. I see alot of people who have said this does not work, well they are full are it, or they just do not know the proper steps to take! 4. Making water for the Vase. a. Before you place the stem into the vase you will want to make up the water and plant food solution. b. You will add luke warm(or ROOM TEMPERATURE) water along with the plant food into the water and let it dilute. c. You will then mix the water and plant food in the water until it has dissolved. d. After it has diluted by mixing it and letting it settle for a minute or so you will then take the next steps! 5. Placing the Stem in the vase. a. After you place your Stem in the vase you will leave it in there until you see it actually root! b. You will want to change the water and add more plant food like the above steps in steps 4 a-d at least every 3 days so it is not sitting in stagnant water. c. Plants can survive after being cut without water for about three days before they start to wilt unless they are left in the sun which in that case will wilt even sooner! So on that note you will want the freshest cut flower to do this with or you will wind up with a rotting flower in the water, regardless of how cautious you are! 6. Patience is A Virtue! a. If you are as impatient as some people are here you can take your chances and actually place the flower in the dirt after submerging the stem in the clonex, but I would not suggest it! b. In the cut stage you dont want to risk it as if you forget to water the flower even one day as these need to be watered twice a day or more depending on the temperature outside then you risk the entire process going to crud! c. Its up to you. You either want results or dont! 7. When to place it in the ground! a. Only after you actually see roots(which can be really tiny) will you actually place the stem in the dirt b. Before placing the stem in the ground you will need to maker sure the ground has been that has been aerated and fertilizer has been added to it! c. If it is too cold outside make sure you have a pot that is big enough for your plant. d. The best way to measure a pot so you know it will be big enough is to take the roots and measure it with a ruler on a piece of paper then mark the other side of the paper until you have a whole circle then you will take that and figure you will need at least two inches bigger then that circle(as you will need to make sure you have enough room for growth). e. If you have grown this indoors, you are probably wondering (If you dont already know) when to place this new plant of yours outside to acclimate to the weather(as you cannot bring the plant outside and just place it in a hole right away! You need to give it at least 2 or 3 days to adjust to your yard before placing it in the ground! f. You will dig a hole that is at least 1' deep and if the stem is bigger you will want to dig a hole that is big enough for your stem! g. Do not try to cut corners like I have said again and again above as you will not get the results you are looking for! It will only end in disaster! If you have questions please feel free to ask as I will always be available to answer any questions! Also if anyone feels I am missing something please let me know as I feel like I have missed something! I guess I will figure it out! ## Frequently Bought Together - HydroDynamics Clonex Rooting Compound, 100 ml - General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter, Starter Plug for Seeds or Cuttings, Great for Soil or Hydroponics Growing System, 50 Plugs - HydroDynamics Clonex Clone Solution - Clone & Seedling Nutrient, 1 Quart --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1809324-clonex-rooting-gel-high-performance-rooting-compound-for-plant-cuttings](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1809324-clonex-rooting-gel-high-performance-rooting-compound-for-plant-cuttings) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
