Turbo Clon-Air Hydro | Hydroponic System

Turbo Clon-air Hydro is a hydroponic system designed for propagation by cuttings, created to maintain a stable and well-oxygenated environment during the rooting stage.

The Clon-Air line is described as versatile: with different components it is possible to use a “Hydro” setup with substrate and an “Aero” setup without substrate. Consult the attached documentation for the recommended setup and management.

Key features

1. Intended use: propagation of cuttings in hydroponics
2. Sites: 15 cutting sites (neoprene inserts included)
3. Oxygenation: via compressor/air pump that oxygenates the water in the container
4. Water management: indicated capacity 2 litres, generally without the need for top-ups during the rooting cycle
5. Footprint: 8 cm (H) × 21 cm (W) × 30.5 cm (L)

Overview

What it is for

It is used to create and maintain favourable conditions for rooting cuttings, combining oxygenated water and substrate support (Hydro configuration) to support the initial stage of root development.

Who it is for

1. Growers who want to propagate a limited number of cuttings in an orderly and repeatable way.
2. Those looking for a compact system to manage in limited spaces with guided procedures.
3. Users who prefer a hydroponic approach with continuous water oxygenation.

What makes it different

1. Compact structure, designed for small-scale propagation without complex systems.
2. Line described as switchable between Hydro (with substrate) and Aero (without substrate) setups by changing certain components.
3. Oxygenation system designed to keep the water suitable for the rooting stage.

How to use

Preparation

1. Prepare the system in a clean, stable area, and set up gentle lighting for the propagation stage.
2. If the use of expanded clay is envisaged, rinse and prepare it according to the documentation instructions.
3. Fill the container with an adequate amount of water and start oxygenation.

Inserting cuttings

1. Prepare the cuttings following correct cutting and cleaning technique.
2. Insert each cutting into the neoprene inserts and place it in the positions on the upper tray.
3. Make sure the environment remains humid and well lit, avoiding direct sunlight or high-intensity lamps that could dehydrate the cuttings.

Cycle management

1. Keep the system in a warm, controlled place.
2. Follow the indications on temperature, humidity and water parameters reported in the documentation.
3. When roots appear, transplant before they begin to tangle.

Maintenance

1. Clean and rinse components and container between one cycle and the next, following the procedure recommended in the manual.
2. Regularly check the condition of the water and the efficiency of oxygenation.

Brand

CLON-AIR is a line of propagation systems focused on compact units and guided operating procedures, with a structure described as versatile between different setups (Hydro/Aero) depending on the components used.

FAQ & growing tips

Is this system only hydroponic?

The line documentation describes both hydroponic use (Hydro, with substrate) and aeroponic use (Aero, without substrate) by changing some components. Check configuration and compatibility in the attached documentation.

How much water should be put into the container?

The manual states that the container should have at least 2 litres of water; the reported capacity is 2 litres and it is indicated that, in most cases, topping up or changing the water during the rooting cycle is not necessary.

What lighting is recommended for propagation?

It is indicated that the cuttings should be kept well lit while avoiding direct sunlight or high-intensity lamps that could dry them out quickly; fluorescent lighting is mentioned as a preferred option, with an 18/6 cycle via timer.
