  • 0.55% IBA Cloning Gel: Rootech is a water based gel carrying 0.55% indole-3-butyric acid plus vitamin B1, formulated for propagating new plants from stem cuttings.
  • Gel Coats and Seals the Cut: Unlike rooting powders, the gel clings to cut tissue and seals it, holding full contact with the stem and avoiding the inhalation risk of dusting.
  • For Cuttings: Use on softwood and woody cuttings from ornamentals, flowers, shrubs, and trees. Works with cloning machines, propagation plugs, rockwool and soil. Non food use only.
  • Use It the Clean Way: Decant a small amount into a separate container, dip the cut end, then discard what you poured. Never dip a cutting into the jar and never reuse the gel.

No Results Yet In Roots, But We Have Growth!
Size: .25 OZ
Had a jungle mint monstera mid-cutting that wasn't doing well, it's roots rotted in the shipping process. I tried treating it in diluted hydrogen peroxide to save the remaining roots, but they ended up all rotting away within a few days Anyway, I got the plant on 9/10/25 and by 9/19/25 all the roots were completely rotted and slid off the stem with minimal force. I'm unsure how much of this damage was my fault, vs the packaging, vs it being a midcutting which apparently doesn't do well anyway in comparison to top cuttings. I normally propagate in water, but because it already had rot, I worried about it surviving water propagation. I have zero experience rooting in moss, but I set up a moss bin and I had put some of this gel on the stem where roots should come from. So far it's been a week and I have no roots still, however I do have this growth point which is finally emerging! Which means the rot didn't take too much of the plant! I'm really hoping this gel helps or at least I hope the plant roots regardless of the gel. I'll update my post eventually. I don't know if I should try reapplying the gel or not though, but I'm probably going to avoid reapplying 10/28/25 I have plenty of roots now! I'm unsure if this paste helped or not but it certainly didn't kill it so there's progress! The first root developed on 10/10/25 in a spot I did NOT put this paste (the aerial root coming out from next to the growth point aka the higher up root) I'm not sure at what day it was, but at some point the spot I DID put the paste did start developing roots and there's two roots coming out of that section (the lower two roots) All roots look healthy, and it will remain in the prop box until I see a leaf fully emerge. Overall unsure if this product works but it at least didn't kill this plant. I'm going to try it on two albo cuttings I have that don't seem to be developing roots as well as the other cuttings are. ... show more

Works. Good a great transplant percentage.

Check the Ingredients (plus tips for success)
I have tried several rooting gels, and I have looked into the main ingredient, indole butyric acid. Pay attention to the percentage, as this is the most important component. Don't let any of the marketing hype or word of mouth fool you. Just because someone says "x-brand worked better for me, but all of the clones used by rootech failed", it doesn't mean that the other brand was better. It also doesn't mean Rootech was necessarily better or worse. They could have done something different or made a mistake, just as I did. Now, back to that main ingredient. The more of this stuff, the better. The rest is just filler or water, and sometimes vitamins, which really don't do much at all for a plant without roots. From what I've found, Rootech has the highest concentration of indole butyric acid of any other product. This is the growth hormone that encourages your cuttings to grow roots, so more is better. One other product, which ends in an "-ex", even contains a known CARCINOGEN AND IRRITANT called crystal violet dye, which is only used as a colorant. (Check the MSDS safety sheets!) I did not know this even though I have used that particular brand of clone solution before trying the cloning gels. That said, just use whatever method and product works best for you. At least now you know what to look for. And if you want to go with the facts, this product has the highest concentration of rooting hormones among any other gels. EDIT: Just a note to anyone who has had trouble cloning in the past. I started out knowing nothing about taking cuttings and to make them survive. Believe it or not the cloning gel you use is not the most important factor in survival rate. I started with maybe 50% survival if I was lucky. By elimination, I figured out what conditions made for the best survival rates. The biggest things that will kill your clones are: 1) Stem rot from too much moisture (bacteria) 2) Wilting from low humidity 3) Yellowing (too much light) Here are some observations that might help: 1) To prevent stem rot, make sure your stems aren't too wet. If using root cubes or plugs squeeze out excess moisture and only keep them moist. Too much water makes for less oxygen and sets up the perfect environment for bacteria to rot away the stems and prevent root growth. Aeroponic cloners can help with this, but can still rot your stems if the water gets too warm. 2) A clone has no roots so can't absorb water easily, so it will wilt. A common solution is using a humidity dome and misting. This can actually cause your clones to yellow faster and set up the perfect environment for mold and bacteria. Wilting can be easily prevented with the use of some anti-wilt liquid. It's a simple wax that is biodegradable and prevents water loss through the leaves. It will not kill your plants and will make them last longer, which means higher survival rates. I've used a couple brands and vitagrow seems to work the best. I just mix it according to directions and dip the cuttings or spray them once. I still use a humidity dome to prevent my root plugs from drying out. I promise you will increase your survival rate if you try this. I went from 50% to 100% by this method alone. 3) Yellowing. This is minor problem, but still important because you want only the strongest cuttings. To prevent this you should use low lighting for clones. High lighting will cause them to lose water faster, and in turn they will burn up the small reserve of nutrients in their leaves. A cutting that has yellowed and dying leaves will take longer to regenerate and may not survive as well. Another thing that can cause yellowing is the overuse of foliar sprays and even plain water. If you use ant wilt sprays there is no need for water misting, and nutrient foliar sprays are just too much for a small cutting that has already been in shock. I hope this has helped anyone who is having trouble. ... show more

You found the best!! A++ quality product!
Size: 4 OZ
This root tech stuff is absolutely by far the best cloning gel I've used. Whoops clonex butt to the point that I (right now) have a full bottle of clonex and it's basically a paperweight, never will be used. I have cloned probably over 100 (indica sativa and crosses) strains with root tech, likely a few thousand clones...with almost 100% success rate. Yes, that's the truth. When I ran out recently, and switched to clonex for a short while because I had some, my success rate dropped significantly. Needless to say I'm with root tech for good. I can't say enough good about these guys. My 100% success rate is in reference to the root tech brand only, the success rate with other brands was noticeably different/lower. My successful method: I keep it simple. I take cuts from the mother, and with a clean (disinfected) razor blade I scrape the skin only from the bottom 1/2 inch of the stem (be delicate). Then dip in cloning gel, and into pre-moistened rapid rooter plugs (or root riot). Stick em in the clone tray, on top of heat pad, and feed pH balanced 6.0 water. Place under florescent lamp. That's it. I don't go crazy with extra steps or get over complicated. I have almost 100% success, and the few that don't survive are more likely due to neglect than anything. I would absolutely recommend this stuff hands down over the several other brands I've tried. It's very easy to use, and eliminates headaches, guesswork wondering why you're only getting 50% success, etc. If anybody has something bad to say about this stuff, they are very likely doing something very wrong. If you have a decent idea of how to clone, this should make your life easier and is worth the extra few bucks, trust me! Just think about it...would you rather save a few bucks, and get something with 50-75% success, essentially leaving you to guess and have to grow extras to be sure you fill your space, or would you rather have a product that works as intended? I don't work for these guys in any way, I'm just a big fan and feel that a fantastic product with fantastic results really does deserve being mentioned in today's overcrowded marketplace. Hope this info has been helpful and welcome to someone trying to make a tough choice. Hope it also saves some from the trial and error of testing different brands over a course of years! This review is referring to CANNABIS cultivation cloning ONLY. I can NOT comment on how effective this product is for any other type of plant, fruit, vegetable, etc. If you're looking to clone cannabis of any variety, you've stumbled onto the very best stuff (my honest, humble opinion) to get the job done! You'll buy it again. Good luck out there, fellow greenthumbs!! ... show more
