Four Things First Time Home Buyers Don't Always Consider
For millions of people, buying a house is like a dream come true. They imagine themselves sitting in their backyard drinking cocktails with their friends while the kids play on the swing set and nothing could be better.
But for all too many people the house becomes like a noose around their neck. Usually this is because they bought more house than they can afford or they underestimated the costs involved.
Here are a few things first time home buyers often forget about:
Property Taxes. The tax man always comes to get his share and you had better be prepared to pay him. When you are figuring out how much home you afford you need to add property tax into the equation. You can look up the current tax bill to get an idea of how much you'll need, but keep in mind that property taxes usually only go in one direction, and it's not down.
Home Insurance. Property insurance is another expense that generally only goes up so you'll need to keep some wiggle room in your budget so you're prepared for the inevitable rate hikes.
Private Mortgage Insurance. If your down payment is less than 20% of the home's value you may be required to pay private mortgage insurance. The purpose of PMI is not to protect you, but instead to protect the lender in case you default on the loan. PMI can be costly so shop around. Some lenders have more creative mortgages for first time buyers who can't afford a large down payment so it may pay to do a little research.
Escrow. Man, I hate escrow accounts. We had one with our first house but I hated it so much I refused it when we bought our second home. Escrow accounts are used when the lender pays your property tax and insurance for you. It's nice to not have to worry about those bills since they're built into your monthly mortgage payment, but there is a trade-off.
To ensure they have enough money to cover expected expenses, your lender will require you to keep an extra amount in the account to serve as a cushion. Once a year or so they look at the payments and determine if an adjustment to your payment is necessary. Do you want to guess which direction they adjust it? In the seven years we owned our first home we received the dreaded Escrow Shortage Notice six times. In each case we found our payment being raised anywhere from $35 to $200 a month.
When you're already stretching yourself thin just to pay the mortgage every month, finding out that your payment is increasing because of taxes, insurance, or an escrow shortage can be like getting kicked in the gut. If you're a first time home buyer you want to make sure you keep these expenses in mind or you could end up over your head.

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears: Gucci Mane's pregnancy hormones got out of control today and he decided to let everyone have it.
From alleging that he and Waka Flocka Flame ran a train on Nicki Minaj while she was living out of her car to claiming French Montana fucked the trillest bitch to ever take a breath of life — Waka's mom Deb Antney – for his record deal, this Drumma Boy produced street symphony went on and on and on and on and on . . .
Decoded: For those of you who think that I am spreading falsehoods, ask Waka Flocka Flame if we had tag team sex with Tyga's current girlfriend.
Decoded: Rocko is more athletic than I am. He ran away from me when I confronted him about the things I said today on Twitter and I was unable to catch up. It was very entertaining to say the least. World Star Hip Hop would receive plenty of views from the video footage I captured.
Decoded: Before Nicki Minaj was a "five star bitch" I assisted her in getting back on her feet, first with $50-per-night hotel accommodations then with an apartment. Additionally, I would also like to take this opportunity to say that I am not a fan of a fake posterior.
Decoded: Rihanna's taste in men leaves a lot to be desired. I would love the opportunity to escort her to this month's BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta.
Decoded: My upcoming studio album is in the process of being mixed and mastered. I am no longer accepting any verses from other artists. Furthermore, please stop asking to be featured on the project, we are not artists of the same caliber. It's rather annoying.
Decoded: Polow Da Don stole the song "Medicine" from me, added Keri Hilson and then sold it to Plies — not cool. Because of this deceit, the next time our paths cross there will be problems.
I got pix of nikki n my bed I got tape off rocko begging 4 his ?got pix of 3sum k kaior. Dm askdem ciara kelly fantasia mya buffy maliah?
— Gucci Mane (@gucci1017) September 9, 2013
Decoded: I have pictures of Nicki Minaj in my bed. I have video footage of Rocko begging for his — let your curiosity run wild, people. I also have photos of a threesome I participated in with Keyshia Kaior. Direct message me for details about Ciara, Kelly, Fantasia, Mya. Buffy The Body and Maliah.
I got pix. Who got millions
— Gucci Mane (@gucci1017) September 9, 2013
Decoded: Young Jeezy, T.I., Yo Gotti, Waka Flocka Flame, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Wooh Da Kidd, Frenchy, 2 Chainz, Coach K, Keyshia Kaior, OJ Da Juice Man, Rocko and other assorted negros from Atlanta are not allowed to my next cookout.
Decoded: I've always recognized the star quality in Nicki Minaj that others ignored at first — including her boss Lil Wayne. Acting on God's voice, I moved her to Atlanta in order to progress both her lifestyle and career. My penis is simply a vessel for which the Lord moves through, on Earth as it is Heaven.
Decoded: I know I have mentioned this already but Waka Flocka and I had sex with Tyga's girlfriend Blac Chyna at the W Hotel located in South Beach. DJ Holiday can corroborate my story.
Decoded: Ask Ciara if she had sex with me while she was in a relationship with 50 Cent. Ask Kelly Rowland if she came to see me at Patch Work Studios and Club Onyx while she was dating Shaka. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
Decoded: "Resentment" isn't just my favorite from 'B Day' — it's also what Rocko has in his heart toward his ex-fiancee Monica.
Decoded: Nicki Minaj, Keyshia Kaoir, Taraji P. Henson and Monica hot butters my biscuit. I'm getting aroused just thinking about sleeping with them. Tennis skirts for easy access, ladies!
Decoded: I have a knack for discovering "talent" if you know what I mean. I had sex with all the leading ladies in Yo Gotti's music video for "I Got Dat Sac". The list includes noted video vixens Maliah Michelle,Yaris Sanchez, Keyshia Kaior and Jessica KOD.
Decoded: If the opportunity ever presented itself I would have sexual intercourse with Tameka "Tiny" Harris, wife to rapper T.I.
Decoded: I have absolutely nothing to lie about folks. I love showering women with money and expensive gifts in exchange for sex. Come on ride this train.
Decoded: I'm sleeping with the Young Jeezy's girlfriend. Ask her, I'm sure she would be open to sharing details.
And then my translator broke.
Fantasia hit good. Dro was taking her to figure 8. She was giving head at d 4seasons wit wop

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Scout!
Facts about Scout
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Orange Or Red Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Scout's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
This cat is so awsome,he would make such a great addition to a great family!!!
Other Pets at Humane Society Pet Rescue and Adoption Center
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Scout, a Gadsden Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Gadsden, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Gadsden.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gadsden already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Gadsden breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gadsden paves the way for another one to be saved.

Michael Chavez ID'd as man shot to death in South Bryant Street murder (66)
Update: Earlier today, we told you about a murder on the 1600 block of Bryant Street; see our previous coverage below. Now, the identity of the victim has been released, albeit a bit prematurely. The Denver Police Department sent out a news release without the name of the man, but it was paired with a crime bulletin featuring a photo of Michael Anthony Chavez. We just checked with DPD spokesman Sonny Jackson to make sure this information was releasable, however, and he confirms that Chavez's next of kin have been notified and are no doubt grieving.Big photo below.
Our condolences to Chavez's friends, family and loved ones.
In the meantime, investigators have added a few more details. As we've reported, Denver police were called to the 1600 block of South Bryant Street at around 10 p.m. last night on the report of a shooting. There, they found Chavez lying in the street, suffering from gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at Denver Health a short time later.
Detectives subsequently chatted with witnesses at the scene who reported seeing a dark colored vehicle leaving at a high rate of speed following the sound of gunshots. The car moved northbound on South Bryant before driving out of view.
The photo of Chavez is a mug shot, which obviously speaks of prior police interaction. But spokesman Jackson says he doesn't know the specifics of his criminal history.
If you have any information about the crime, you're encouraged to phone Crime Stoppers at 720-913-STOP (7867). A reward of up to $2,000 is being offered. In the meantime, here's a larger look at Chavez's photo, followed by our previous coverage.
Continue for our previous coverage, including an interactive graphic of the area near where the shooting took place.Michael Anthony Chavez.

Hello, Harold.
I have added a headstone photo for Kate Sandifer. The headstone has Katie Eadler or Ealler Dau of L. G and Bennie Sandifer B. Dec 7, 1872 D. July 16, 1875. Do you think this is the correct memorial for this headstone photo? Please let me know if I should remove the photo and create a memorial.

Oxford Cemetery
Hello Harold,
I had a little glitch along the way on my trip East. I had just crossed into Mississippi from Louisiana, cell fone rang, emergency back home so I had to turn around.
So close yet so far, HA !!!
Thats the bad news.
The good news is that the trip East has -not- been cancelled, just put off to a later date.
The weather is bad out that way right now and my problem here has been resolved, so if it turns warmer (a big if) next month, I'll give it another shot.
Also, I go to Georgia on the average twice a year and I have all the info in my briefcase.
I will not pass by the Oxford Cemetery without checking it out.
Later, James Coston

RE: Lancaster Surname, Oxford, Ga.
Evening Harold,
Wow, this is gonna be a findagrave adventure.
200 entries and only 2% photographed. I wonder how it escaped the camera for this long. I realize it's old but still, someone should have recorded it by now.
I looked at the aerial url that you provided.
It appears to be kept up and in real good shape, at least when the foto was taken, HA !!!
As luck would have it, when we go to Georgia to visit friends, one of our overnight stops (camper trailer) is the Mississippi/Alabama rest area. From the map, the cemetery is just down the road, should knock it out before things heat up. The way the weather is cooling off, even better to 'stomp' around a cemetery.
Anyway, my plan is to photograph the whole thing, might as well since this is a one shot event. We will spend a couple of weeks on the road so fotos should be available mid-month.
Hopefully we score the Lancaster clan, the 3 your are looking for +7 more.
Will let ya know how it goes,
Later, James Coston

Lancaster Surname, Oxford, Ga.
Morning Harold,
U have helped me out over the years with my family (transferring entries) and I would like to return the favor, if possible.
I am taking a leisurely trip to Georgia next month out IH-20. I found some requests U have put in over the past few years for Oxford Cemetery in Sumner Co., Alabama. On the map, that town is just off the interstate. I would be happy to swing by there and give your requests some attention "but" I am unable to obtain a location for the cemetery, couldn't even determine if it is actually in the town of Oxford.
I am on 14k dial-up so some of these searches get really tedious.
If U can provide me with a general location, let me know and I try and take care of it.
Later, James Coston

Bobby "Boris" Pickett's 1962 novelty song "Monster Mash" may have lost some of the humor since it first became a graveyard smash decades ago. Yet, everyone knows the song and can at least recite the chorus by memory (even if they won't admit it). To celebrate Halloween — the one day when it's only kind of corny to play the tune — we went out and collected some of the many "Monster Mash" covers recorded over the years. In addition to Vincent Price's version (in the clip below, following a scene from the movie Monster Club), after the jump we've included a version by the Misfits (sadly, latter-day, sans-Danzig), a little mashing en espanol, courtesy of Lost Acapulco, the art-school freakishly cool Dog Doo-Da Band, and (our favorite) Bobby Brown and Mike Tyson's duet version on Jimmy Kimmel. Any good ones we missed (please don't say the lame "Monster Hash" covers, originally done by the Toyees)? Which is your favorite version? Any other good Halloween carols? BOO-yah?

I wanted to make sure this worked before I posted it here. Now that I have a few cuttings sprouting roots, I'll post some pictures.
First, I posted this to my blog last week when I was in the process of building it. I found the directions through google. Of course, it was on a cannabis forum, so I won't link to it here. You can do your own search or follow the directions I posted here. Simply put, it's a Sterlite container with holes in the lid, an aquarium heater set at 78 degrees, and two bubble wands powered by a 30 gallon aquarium pump. Not exactly rocket science. I put another container upside down over the whole thing to create a 100% humidity environment. Let me also say that I have tried Janie's propagation chamber. During the summer, I had good success and even managed to root a couple of Fragrant Tea Olives. But, my success rate decreased with each subsequent try. In October, I pruned my two butterfly bushes and stuck over 100 cuttings in two different chambers. This weekend, I potted up the survivors, 15 in all. That's pretty bad, but I'm sure it has more to do with me and my technique than the chamber itself. I find the longer something is in the container, the more likely it is to rot for me. SO, I wanted something faster. This is a small piece (2" tall) of a brugmansia that I am overwintering in the basement. It broke off when I was moving the container. It was the first thing put into my cloning chamber on Jan 1. It's now got long roots. Very green cutting too. All images are clickable. This is a piece of pineapple sage that I took cuttings from in November before the frost got my plant outside. It was stuck in the cloning chamber on Jan 3. The roots are just shy of 1/8". I realize these are easy to root varieties, so I'll be curious how long other things take to root. The material holding the plants in the lid are foam rollers. I bought them in packs of 10 from the dollar store. I cut them in half and then sliced them through the hole already in them. They seem to be working fine so far to hold the cuttings in place. Although the cloning chamber I build looks different from the one I am using now, it's the same method. I realized A) my bottom container was too large and heavy when filled with water, B) the holes in the lid were too large and spaced too closely. The second version pictured below has 58 - 5/8" holes instead of 77 - 3/4" holes. The Green & Gold Euyonmous was stuck yesterday. There are tiny white numbs already on one of the cuttings. Since the humidity and temperature are regulated by the heater and cover, I should be able to use this year round on evergreens and softwood cuttings depending on the season. I've also put a few camellia cuttings in there, but nothing is happening with those yet. In the spring, I'll use it to propagate extra annuals so I don't have to sow as many seeds as well as shrubs, perennials, and other things I want more of. With a blank slate yard, I have plenty of space to grow. Comments questions or suggestions? |

I know, huh? After day 1, I saw no growth. On day two, little nubs. Day 3 roots were growing. On day 4, I potted it into soil. Now I admit, pineapple sage is an easy one to root, but it gives me an idea of how long to expect other things to take. |

I made one that is very similar, maybe even a bit easier and had great results with passiflora cuttings and a few of some of my harder to root plants. I did change the amount of time the pump ran from 15 minutes/hr to 45 but I'm using a fairly weak aquarium pump. With a stronger pump 15 minutes might be sufficient. Instead of cutting or burning holes in plastic cups I bought mesh pots at a hydroponics store. They are only a few cents a piece. I also have it sitting on a propagation mat to keep the water warm. |

I grow hydroponically and as such use a "cloner" regularly to propagate stuff. I'm in the process of revamping my Web page, so the "full salon treatment" is a week or two away. When it's done, there is a page called "Hydroponic Cloner" and it discusses the subject in detail. There are also plans with pictures available. If you're at all interested, check my Web site out; see my profile. I know I could post a link, but I don't want it to look like I'm spamming the forum. |

Karyn, Your is one that I found here on GW and used it as a model. I originally started with a large container like yours, but found it too heavy to move once it was full of water. Plus, the heater seemed to have trouble keeping the water warm in the basement. So I went with a smaller container and reduced the number of holes in the lid. Apparently, these things are a big hit with the cannabis growers. freeman, I'll check it out. Always looking for new ideas. |

You don't need a water filter. You'll need to change all the water every couple of weeks anyway. Mine is about 2 weeks old and I will change the water this week. I don't want algae growth. As for holding the cuttings, I let the bottom of mine dangle free in the chamber. They're about 1/2" above the water line. The breaking bubbles mist the cuttings. I'm thinking about adding a timer like Karyn. The cuttings right now stay a little too wet for what I THINK is correct. Again, I don't know for sure. I think that the purchased machines have constant water spray. I use foam rollers in 5/8" holes. This is what the cutting looks like in the roller. I gently squeeze the roller and push it into the hole. My holes are spaced on a 1.5" grid. I only drilled every other hole. Every hole means the cuttings are too close for most evergreen cuttings. I think you might want to start with a smaller container too. Mine is a sweater storage container. I think yours is an underbed storage box. You'll need a lot more bubblers for something that large. Sterlite container. The dimensions are 23"L x 16 3/4"W x 5 7/8"H. You can even go as small as the plastic shoeboxes from walmart. That's also where I bought mine. The original one was too deep to fit on my propagation rack in the basement, and too heavy when filled with water. The smaller one is just right. I can do 58 cuttings at a time. The good thing about this container is that you can purchase a second one to put upside down over the top keeping the leaves of the cuttings from drying out. My success so far has been from overwintering tender perennials that didn't have time to settle in before winter. In the spring, I'll get to really put it to the test. |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Sun, Jan 11, 09 at 20:56
Youtube video showing how my cuttings are held in place. I also want to say that the cuttings I have had success with in the past two weeks have not been subjected to winter weather. They are all actively growing in the basement. Nothing has rooted yet that came from outside in the past two weeks. I think it's important for this method to have softwood rather than hardwood, even on evergreen cuttings. Also, because Karyn's cloner shows the cuttings sticking through the pots with clay pellets, I think that what I am doing should work, but it's still a test at this point. |

So do you think that eventually the woody plants will root in this thing? I've lost all my woody cuttings using any other method I've tried. It just rots. I didn't design this, I found a lot of them on google, mostly from cannabis growers. And Karyn's setup helped me too. I didn't want to fool with nozzles and pumps and all the problems associated with those. Plus, it was cheap. A "real" system costs several hundred dollars. The parts aren't a fraction of that. For the home gardener, it's just not worth it. I did cut back the camellias I took cuttings from. The others I stuck thinking there wouldn't be a lot of moisture loss from the leaves. They're putting out new top growth, but no roots. They do seem to be forming a callus though. |

Dax, I was looking for the root gel you were talking about, but can't find it on their website (www.treehavennursery.com). Do you know the name of the root gel? I found several on different websites, but don't know which you are referring to. |
- Posted by gardener365 5a (My Page) on Mon, Jan 12, 09 at 10:57
The owner of Treehaven sells the stuff by weight. It's very inexpensive (5 bucks?). This stuff will prevent rot!! That's the ticket here. You'll need to call him and inquire how much of the stuff you'll need, that I do not know. I thought he mentioned it on the website, sorry about that. I am thinking a five buck bag of the stuff should easily do 1000 cuttings. Ask him though. I'm off to return this pump/filter. Token, with a propagator like this and the gel, you'll have success with woody's, guaranteed. Dip n' Grow is by far the best as well and I wouldn't hesitate not to use it. And I think a time-frame of two weeks roots will begin to develop, at least with conifers. Much faster than any other conventional ways. That's what I'm thinking. Dax |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Mon, Jan 12, 09 at 11:15
Thanks Dax. I'm not currently using any hormones. I may look into that if three weeks doesn't show any roots. I do have one woody plant that seems to be rooting this morning. It's a saucer magnolia. It was callused already though. That may be another key to keeping the rot down since there is so much moisture in this system. |
- Posted by gardener365 5a (My Page) on Mon, Jan 12, 09 at 13:18
One last thought and do as you all wish but I use an in-organic product called Consan 20 which is both a fungicide and an algaecide. I plan to use it in my system and to spray the cuttings. Others have told me it's difficult to find but it's sold locally at a nursery here, so for me, it's easy to get ahold of. Zerotol is the best, however (less toxic). Got my aquarium heater, now I gotta wait a month. Take care guys, Dax |
- Posted by gardener365 5a (My Page) on Mon, Jan 12, 09 at 15:45
I found out something. I called the main office for Botanicare and learned that the very best way to not rot cuttings is to use a combination of black plastic mesh baskets (2" is plenty large) in combination with Hydroton clay pellets which are recylable and are good for a lifetime. Everything else including rockwool will induce rot with cloning machines. So, I hope you're on your way to success. Best Regards, Dax Here's a link to these black 2" baskets where I purchased (the cheapest, it's laughable) 4000 of them for a total of 16 dollars including shipping. Everyone else sells them for 15 cents up to 40 cents each. What a joke. What I'll do with 4000, who cares! Enjoy your day. |

Thanks for the link Dax. Now I wonder, why in the world anyone would want a hydroponic chamber that looks like a PC? LOL I'm going to keep trying with my foam rollers. If I start to see a lot of rot I'll make a new tray with larger holes for net pots. It may mean I have to build two of these to clone the number of plants I want. They're cheap and easy though. In fact, I think my air pump could handle two units with only one wand in each. |
- Posted by gardener365 5a (My Page) on Mon, Jan 12, 09 at 16:00
Indeed Token. Good link too, lol. One more thing although I'm sure the directions are on the bag, I was told by the person at Botanicare to thoroughly wash the clay pellets before use. Have a good one, Dax |

Thanks for sharing this, Tom. I am going to town today to pick up supplies to build one of these. My biggest problem is finding a place to put it, as my greenhouse is not heated, and I have no space left in the house! My DH hates this time of year, as every available horizontal space is covered with something germinating/something rooting. I am really impressed with how fast your cuttings grew roots! That would be fantastic for me! Janie |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 9:33
Thanks Janie. Like I said, I've used your chamber during the spring and summer with great results. Inside in the winter, it's harder to keep the cuttings from rotting for me. I'm looking now at some fungicides and maybe peroxide in the water. |
- Posted by karyn1 MD 7 (email@example.com) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 11:20
I use the mesh pots and expanded clay pellets and have no problem with rot. I also add Thrive Alive B1 to the water. I don't use an aquarium heater I set the tub on a propagation mat. Here's a link to pics of a couple passiflora cuttings. I've rooted semi woody stemmed cuttings like Petrea volubilis, Strophanthus gratus, Strophanthus preussii and jasmine Grand Duke. |

Good roots karyn. The Thrive is a good idea as well. I think I'll be adding it. Tom or anyone, one thing I don't understand yet, am I suppose to run this thing 24 hours or set it on a timer schedule. Dax |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 14:09
I think Karyn has hers on a time to run 15 minutes, off 45. I don't have a timer so I let it run nonstop. Some of the cuttings are too wet, so I might look at getting a timer before spring. I wish now I had only installed one bubble curtain. The smaller air pump would have been better too. Too much moisture. I even tried removing the cover, but the cuttings dried out. |
- Posted by gardener365 5a (My Page) on Tue, Jan 13, 09 at 17:42
well you can easily remove one bubble curtain. The "Gang Valve" I bought was made with simplicity in mind. I can control the amount of air flow because it has "valves" and it also allows me to quickly build the machine. That may be the best thing I bought and for five bucks. the air pump i bought can power anywhere between 15 and 115 gallons of pressure (from total gallons of water being used in total) ...so if I want to run more tubing to more cloners, all i need do is add up the sum from each cloner, and... I intend to build a lot of these This is the future in quick turnover. I see it useful for seed as well as cuttings. 'Graduating' rootsystems to a larger basket along with adding fertilizers and I see a quick glimpse of my life becoming a little richer and a lot easier. ;-) Thanks for that info. Tom. Dax |

A friend wrote me with some comments: I've learned a few things…mainly by making mistakes…and hope they can help you. One important aspect of hydroponics is keeping things clean. Be sure to soak everything in a bleach solution between propagation runs, rinse well, then let sit for 12 hours to let any residual chlorine dissipate. I drag my cloners into the shower for this process; better that the bleach goes into the septic system than accidently killing something off with the drainage water. I also have mixed feelings about hydrogen peroxide. You just need to remember that it kills beneficials (mycrorizae) too, as does the Consan 20. I use an agricultural organic product called Actinovate Actinovate A quick Google search told me it is available to the general public too. Since starting it the water is always clear. Cuttings still do die, but not as many. What about water temperature? Token28001 is at 78F, but what is good for conifers? Another thing to remember is that higher water temperatures promote unwanted fungal and bacterial growth. I accidently misread my water heater upside down one time and had the water at 86F instead of 68F. What a cloudy mess! Had to start over with that one. Transplanting from then cloner to soil is still a trial. The plugs Trial Plugs I'm trying out are so the roots are not disturbed as much during that transfer. But those end up being one more expense too. You'll have to let me know how the hydrotron/basket combination works out, especially the transfer to soil. Lastly (for now) is rooting hormones, It works best for me to put Dip N Grow directly into the cloner water (using an eyedropper) at 5 drops per 2 gallons of water. I've talked to the guy at Botanicare also and he even admits that their rooting gels wash off in a cloner. Dax |

Well, cleaning everything is certainly the most important part. I need to do mine again this weekend. I've had a little rot and algae growth. I don't use anything in the water except one cap full of Miracle Grow's transplant & starter fertilizer. I don't have any reason for this aside from the fact that it stimulates root growth in transplants too. The water temperature on mine is set at 78. I have read that lower is better, but the basement is cold so it helps to heat the entire chamber especially with the lid. The top is still cooler than that at around 60 degrees. I wish it were cooler still since warm feet, cool tops promotes more root growth. I haven't had any problems yet with transplanting. I don't let me roots get longer than 1/2" and I use Scott's potting mix. It's really light and fluffy. I put enough in the bottom of the container to support the plant, then stick the plant in and fill in while holding it in place. This seems to let the roots fall more naturally in place. If the roots are too long, I don't have a problem trimming them back and putting the cutting back in the cloner for another day. Once the roots appear, they grow very fast. I don't have anything supporting the roots in my cloner. They dangle free. When I remove the cutting, it's just roots right into soil. It's how I did it using Janie's chamber too. It's worked so far. However, I do put the cuttings on bottom heat for a few days to give them a little help. |

Interesting, thanks token. Dax |
Alright, I have gone out and gotten all the parts. I wasn't able to find any of the water treatments you guys recommended so I got some stuff that seemed similar. I am new to chemical treatments so please let me know what you think. Here is what I got: Root hormone: Dip n Grow I had this one already and have used much of it trying cuttings the old fashioned way (dip n grow and stick in dirt). I have had limited success doing things the old way. One in ten will take typically. I have no idea where I can find more as I live in the Binghamton area, and nursery places are a bit limited. Fungicides: I could not find strive alive, so I got Bonide plant starter solution: anyone got suggestions? -Werner J Stiegler |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Wed, Jan 21, 09 at 18:15
Klavier, To be perfectly honest, I only use a transplant/starter fertilizer from Miracle Grow. That seems to be the same N-P-K as the Bonide. And I can't see a difference in the speed with which overwintering plants have rooted. Pineapple sage roots in about 4-5 days maximum. Brugmansia takes about a week. Gardenias taken from outdoor plants take about 2 weeks. Blue Spires salvia from overwintering plants took a little more than a week. I don't use any fungicide. I make sure my container is cleaned with bleach, that all my cuttings are done with bleach cleaned tools, and that my hands are clean when I fill and replace the water. Aside from that, I've had no problems. I've used Rootone in soil and have had limited success too. I tend to have better luck using nothing at all. Taken at the proper time and using the right method, the plant will want to establish new roots. The humidity is keeping them alive. Once they get 1/2" roots, I pot them into small containers. As they get root bound, I pot them into larger containers. I'll move them all out to the hoophouse in March. |
Hello Again, Where do you guys get the on/ off timers that allow you to have it on for a certain amount of time and off for a certain amount of time. The only ones I can find are the ones that turn on your lights and only allow two settings per day. Many thanks, Werner J Stiegler www.binghamtonmemorialtree.webs.com |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Sat, Jan 24, 09 at 22:28
I don't use a timer either except on the lights. I'd like to know where I could get a cycle timer like that as well. I think my cuttings could use some dry time. |
I found a timer a lowes that has half hour settings. It was under $5. I have the bubbles on 30 minutes, off 30 minutes. I also will never use the hair curlers again. I have discovered that the reason wet sneakers stink like they do is because of the similar type foam in them. Next round I will build a tray I can insert in the tub and fill it with an inch or two of perlite and stick the cuttings through to the bubble area. I am hesitant to use the nets and clay balls because that greatly limits how many cuttings I can do at a time with the single cloner. I am now entering day 12 of hard wood cuttings including european beech nut, australian hoop pine, flowering dogwood, and cryptomeria japonica. The cryptomeria have almost been elliminated already. The bottom parts exposed to the bubbles turned black and was clearly dead. The ones I stuck in trays of dirt have remained green when I unearthed a few. The rest have begun to calcify, but I am afraid they are beginning to rot as some have a somewhat slimy texture now. Only time will tell. I have sprayed the tops and bottoms a few times with a spray of captan to keep fungus from sprouting, and a little captan was added to the water. It is getting time to change the water supply. I have not figured out how I am going to carry that out yet. Is there any anti-microbial I can spray on them that will not hinder the root development? Many thanks, |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Tue, Feb 3, 09 at 21:06
Werner, I have found that if you get a piece that rots, it will spread. I change the water then and clean everything with bleach. The curlers must be a different foam than mine. These have open cells and I haven't noticed a smell unless something rots. I soak mine in bleach water again once I've removed them from the cloner. Still working great on softwood cuttings. I've had zero luck with hardwood cuttings. I really think it's because the pump runs 24/7. |
yes, I think they are a different foam. This stuff is exaclty like what you pull out of an old sneaker. I will pick up some pipe insulators because they do not absorb water. -Werner |
Well now, the surprise of my day was finding that the remaining cryptomeria that have not rotted away are not only completely callused, but are also getting definite root nubs. Today is exactly two weeks from sticking, so that is amazing because ones that I stuck the old fashioned way just straight into the dirt over a month ago are not as far along. The english beech nut cuttings that were stuck at the same time still have a bit of a way to go with callusing, though the progress is noticable. The rest was stuck 5 days later, so it is still early. Also, if you use captan as a fungicide, it is very effective, but too much will make the bubbles form suds. The suds do not wet the cuttings well, but simply make them damp. I use 1-2 table spoons to fifteen gallons without sud formation. I went to seven and it looked like shaving cream. If I begin to detect fungus, I make the standard captan spray mix (3.5 tbs to gallon) and mist the cuttings both top and bottom with it. This has kept the cuttings in great shape. I am impressed thus far with the method. Another week will be the decisive point as to whether the cuttings last long enough to develop strong roots, or they only make it to callusing before croaking. -Werner Stiegler Lessons learned thus far: |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Fri, Feb 6, 09 at 9:52
Klavier, I have had some cuttings turn to mush. Again, I think it comes down to sterility issues or taking cuttings that are too soft. What I've learned, -less water makes for more spray but seems to keep the rot issue at bay. I'm still having much more success with softwood cuttings. I tried a blueberry cutting and some pink magnolia hardwood cuttings. Both put out new leaves, but the cut ends turned to mush within a couple weeks. Neither cutting callused over and neither developed roots. Both had to be destroyed. The ones in sand have done nothing as far as root production, but the cuttings are still firm and "green". |
I too have noticed that changing the foam rollers every once in a while helps a lot. I need to find something similar that breaths better and does not hold water. I am thinking of trying the basket method, but I would like to find much smaller baskets. My biggest issue with the baskets is that it greatly limits the number of cuttings that can be put into one cloner. Some cuttings seem to do better being stuck into dirt without the cloner because of rot issues, but the callusing and nub development in the cloner is much much faster. If I could find a method of continous disinfecting that did not harm the cuttings, I would use that in the water. Unfortunately most disinfecting methods do burn the plants if used for too long. Bleach, alcohol, and peroxide for example. Once a week I am changing the water, disinfecting the whole thing, and misting the plants with a 10% bleach solution and then spraying them with fresh water. I am thinking of connnecting a fish tank pump and passing the water through a UV light. This will add a few dollars to the set-up, but will likely increase the success rate a lot. A separate bin below that the water can run into with the light on over it seems like a good idea, and the pump can push the water back up into the clonor. I could change the water to multiple clonors easily that way. It is definitely infection that is the biggest issue here. -Werner J Stiegler |

Originally I used a plastic placemat with a hole cut in the center and a slit to the edge to hold my cuttings. Thinking about it, I had less rot than I did with the foam. I may go back to that method if I keep seeing the rot. Some of the purchased containers use a neoprene sleeve. They are made using a closed cell foam so they don't absorb water. A pond liner is made from neoprene, but I believe the sleeves that are sold for hydroponics are thicker than that and they fit into the cups. One other idea I had was communion cups. They're 3/4" diameter at the bottom and flare up. If you drilled holes in the bottom and used gravel or clay pellets, it would probably work too. And you can always stick more than one cutting in the larger cups. Someone in the cottage garden forum told me she does that. In 20 cups, she can do 80-100 cuttings. You just have to be careful when removing them. |

I am still working on my cloning machine. Bump! Janie |
I've built a similar device and thought I would throw a few cents in since several people are doing this - I don't know if I'm right about all this, but I thought I'd get it out there for discussion. couple things I saw / thought "I also have mixed feelings about hydrogen peroxide. You just need to remember that it kills beneficials (mycrorizae) too, as does the Consan 20." I would not worry at all about kiling beneficial fungi, there is no reason to suspect they are benficial at all in this context. Actually, they shouldn't be. Since all the nutrients should already be in water soluble form..... Also adding IBA to the solution may not be best, it isn't very water soluble, that's why it comes in an alcohol solution not a water solution. It's ok if gels or powders wash off, the hormone should affect the plant pretty fast, while it's dipped or shortly therafter. As for temperature of the solution I was following guidelines online to keep between 68 and 72 and I am thinking that's way too cool. Plants root better slightly warmer, (at least in traditional media) so I'm trying to heat up my solution a little. I haven't had any visible fungi or algae problems and my reservoir is clear, despite the fact that most people advise blacking it out. I am actually thinking about doing that, but not b/c of algae, just thinking light could be intrinsically bad for rooting. As for miracle gro fertilizer I would just avoid anything with urea nitrogen, I read it requires a soil microbe to be available that isn't present in solution culture, so it's just a waste, you're increasing electrical conductivity and not making the nitrogen available. So far a few cuttings of mine have calloused, but not rooted yet. I'll keep tinkering with mine, thank you all for sharing yours. Oh, one reason why I think I haven't had algae is that I have a 60 gallon bubbler for a small machine and I think the very active solution makes it hard for algae to grow. But it is keeping my net pots with hydroton pretty wet so I am thinking about having some dry out time every day and or lowering the reservoir level slightly. My initial impression is that there are a lot of variables with this method so it should take some time to dial in, but overall it's promising for slow, hard to root plants that you don't mind going through the time and expense for. |
here are a few pictures of my small machine, if it works maybe Ill build a larger more sophisticated one. |

I'm still having success with softwood cuttings and a few shrub cuttings like euonymus. I'm trying some annuals now - lantana, petunias, and alternanthera. Will be doing perennials as soon as enough growth is available from plants that come back this winter. |
I've got a pump on order (EcoPlus 633). Everything else for the DIY EZ-cloner, including cuttings in the chill-chest, is ready to go. What do I need in the way of hormone dip and/or solution??? The cuttings are hardwood blueberries, hardy kiwi, blackberry and roses. I'm especially concerned that the blueberries and kiwi take... I have ready access to more blackberry and rose cuttings. I know there are rooting hormone powders and gels, but as it was mentioned, they wash off in a cloner. Should this step be skipped or is there benefit gained despite being eventually washed off? There are also a few "cloning solutions" made, but I don't know if there would be a problem running that through a submerged pump? Has anyone had good success with hardwood cuttings? What did you use to get fast rooting? |
- Posted by token28001 zone7 NC (My Page) on Thu, Apr 16, 09 at 7:55
I have one rose cutting that rooted. I've tossed out way too many that turned to mush. I have better results using an outdoor chamber for things like this. I have weigeila in a 2liter bottle right now. Just cut it in half, fill with sandy soil, stick the cuttings using rooting hormone and cover with the top half. It should take 2-3 months, but they will root. |

I haven't read through everything that's been posted but I have not had any problems with rot or mold with the mesh pots and expanded clay pellets. I soak everything in a bleach solution when I'm finished rooting cuttings and I've reused everything at least twice with no problem. I don't use any water treatments or rooting hormones, nor do I change the water and I've never bothered with a filter. I just add more water as it evaporates. I do add Thrive Alive, Superthrive or anything with B1 to the water. In addition to the B1 I added Pro-tekt for the first time with this batch of cuttings. I don't know yet if it makes a difference. I'm also trying to root hardwood cuttings for the first time. So far they look good. No roots yet but it's only been a little over a week. |
Hey everyone, Just want to let everyone know that I'm new to this forum and growing plants. I came across this posting while doing a google search, trying to find info on rooting cuttings from a red/pink(?) dogwood tree and japanese maple tree. The dogwood is a beautiful tree that's about 40yrs old, and would like to clone several so to plant along a fence line. I have some questions that I could not find within this thread of posts. Right now its about mid spring. Should I do this indoors? Thanks in advance. |

Nice I am thinking of starting to do my own clones shortly. Great Read! |
The alternative cloner has sprayers and a manifold. The advantage of this type of cloning is you can see everything. Time and space is not wasted on cuttings that are not rooting. Also there are solutions available that prevent rot and encourage rooting. I use Dyna-Gro but there seems to be plenty of products out there designed for the purpose. I clean my machine with ammonia. Smelly but effective. I position my cuttings in black plastic stretched over net pots. I can really pack it in. Nine cuttings in a 2 inch net pot. I transplant the strongest. I put them under a dome for a week but most clones don't need it but they all are treated the same. From that point I struggle. Managing large numbers of little plants in this off and on spring weather is difficult. The next time I see the sun I will plant all day. |

Walter Brueggemann is Professor of OT at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia. His commentaries and works on OT theology provide stimulating reading because his exposition consistently focuses on biblical teachings regarding the themes of covenant, land, and divine sovereignty. He seeks to reveal the relevancy of the biblical text to the present time. In this commentary he attempts to demonstrate that a canonical approach to theology can work hand-in-hand with an ideological approach (x-xiii).
Despite his insight, he does not support divine inspiration of Scripture. In the case of Jeremiah, Brueggemann allows for a variety of redactions: "Our exposition cannot easily sort out the distinctions of prophetic person, editing community, and interpreting community" (31; cf. 488, 494). His position on prophecy is vaticinium ex eventu—belief that prophecy is the product of history already played out rather than the product of divine revelation (138). Through his sociological analysis of the text, Brueggemann attributes profound theological statements to the convictions of either the writer or the community of faith rather than to direct divine revelation: "The book of Jeremiah is not a 'record' of what happened, but rather a constructive proposal of reality that is powered bypassionate conviction and that is voiced in cunning, albeit disjunctive artistic form" (ix, emphasis in the original). In the "Introduction" (1-20), he declares, "It is crucial to our interpretation that Jeremiah's proposal of the world is indeed an imaginative construct, not a description of what is nor a prediction of what will be" (17). Again, he asserts that "the language is bold and daring, without responsibility for being factually precise" (56, about 4:17-18).
An example of how this plays out emerges in the commentator's treatment of 23:5-6, a prophetic pronouncement relating to "a branch of righteousness" who is to arise in the Davidic dynasty in the future. Brueggemann indicates that Jeremiah employs the tradition of Isa 11:1. "The usage asserts the conviction that God has not finally abandoned a commitment to the Davidic house" (207, emphasis added). On the other hand, even though he skirts the issue of divine prophetic announcement in Jer 23:5-6, Brueggemann observes the irony involved in the fact that the last king of the Davidic line in 587 B.C. was Zedekiah whose name means "Yahweh is righteous." "The coming king will be genuine 'righteousness' (tsedaqah), whereas the remembered King Zedekiah is not at all an embodiment of righteousness. That king bore the name; the coming king will embody the reality" (207).
In his exposition of Jeremiah 31 Brueggemann rejects a supersessionist reading of the New Covenant (292). He opposes any Christian preemption of the promised forgiveness in the passage:
My own inclination is to say that in our time and place the reading of Hebrews is a distorted reading, and we are back to the recognition of the Jewishness of the new covenant. At best, we may say that Christians come derivatively and belatedly to share the promised newness. That is not to deny Christian participation in the newness, but Christian participation is utterly grounded in Jewish categories and claims, and can have participation on no other terms (295).
Repeatedly, Brueggemann identifies key literary and grammatical elements of the Hebrew text that are essential to understanding it and representing its teachings correctly: e.g., the envelope structure with shema' ("hear") in 5:21 (67), emphasis due to inverted Hebrew word order in 7:5 (79), the rhetorical use of shub ("turn") in 8:4-6 (87), the emphatic personal pronouns of 17:14-18 (164), the forceful employment of the Hebrew infinitive absolute (287-88), and the distinctions to be observed between the two Hebrew negatives, 'al and lo' (394 n. 73).
The evangelical reader will find many of Brueggemann's observations eminently preachable:
"The modern form of idolatry is finally autonomy, the sense that we live life on our own terms" (107).
"The entire unit of Jer. 11:1-17 is a meditation on Deut. 6:4" (112).
"The isolation of the petitioner with this response is not unlike a citizen who learns of conspiracy in government but can find no place to report it, because everyone to whom report might be made is implicated in the conspiracy. Such a grasp of the realities of public life drives one into isolation and/or into life with God" (120, about 12:6).
"The claim of the [Exodus] tradition is shattered by the new act (cf. 23:7-8; Isa. 43:18-19). There is judgment and there is new possibility. There is exile and there is homecoming. There is death and there is resurrection. . . . [A]fter the hurling comes the homecoming" (155).
"The 'bill of indictment' (i.e., the record of guilt) is permanently engraved so that it is irreversible, not to be changed, denied, or forgotten. It is written in the ultimate places of memory, on the heart and on the altar. This record on the heart is the very antithesis of the torah on the heart (31:33). Something will be written on the heart, either sin or torah" (157, about 17:1-4).
"[S]elf-reliance is a central pathology of this people. Sabbath fidelity is one surrender of such self-reliance" (167).
"The oracle [42:7-17] gives every thinkable theological warrant for not running away from the trouble. God wants God's people present both to the trouble and to the possibility" (391).
The volume closes with a helpful "Selected Bibliography" of books and journal articles, the latest being published in 1991 (496-502). It may not be the best available commentary on Jeremiah, but the discerning reader will not regret having it handy while preaching or teaching the book of Jeremiah.

In 2005, Henning Larsen Architects won the international competition to design Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre, and design and construction began on the long-anticipated cultural venue in Reykjavik, Iceland. However, in 2008, a year after Harpa's concrete slabs were poured, the Icelandic financial crisis hit, collapsing all three of the country's major commercial banks, marking the largest banking collapse in economic history. The private funding for Harpa fell through, halting construction of the visibly incomplete concert hall at the edge of Reykjavik's historic harbour.
Harpa was designed to be an iconic landmark for Iceland, lighting up the entire harbour with its unusually colourful and dynamic façade, putting the cultural activities within the building on display for the general public. As part of a larger masterplan to transform Reykjavik's east harbour, Harpa was envisioned as a catalyst to turn an underutilized industrial area into an attractive urban space for the citizens, as well as to attract international tourism. After the financial crisis, it seemed as if the project's aspirations wouldn't be fulfilled. Instead, the Icelandic government chose to release government funds to realise the vision of the country's most important performance and conference centre.
With context at the core of the local design philosophy, Henning Larsen Architects teamed up with Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson and local Icelandic firm Batteriid Architects to ensure that the final design would be architecturally relevant to the society it forms a part of. The collaboration with Eliasson resulted in a dynamic façade composed of faceted glass quasi-bricks, based on the geometry of Icelandic crystallized basalt, that catch and play with the changing light, and provide oscillating views of the Icelandic landscape.
The façade produces a kaleidoscopic play of colours that bears resemblance to the northern lights, both inside and out, and offers dynamic views out to the city of Reykjavik. The building's transparency enables an active engagement between the city and the concert hall. This relationship is further strengthened by the direct procession from the city to the harbour, which resulted from Henning Larsen Architects' recommendation to sink part of the freeway that isolated the harbour from the city.
Enacted, this bold planning move reconnects Harpa to the rest of Reykjavik and makes it publicly accessible and inviting. Designed to host both public and private events united under one roof, the new concert and conference center expands the city life in Reykjavik. The new public institution connects three main interests: the multifaceted music scene in Iceland, world-class business events, and public recreation. While the building will act as a home to the Iceland Symphony Orchestra, the concert hall features a diverse musical programme, appealing to many different tastes.
The Conference Center is integrated seamlessly in the same building and is designed with multi-functional facilities to accommodate international conferences, conventions and meetings of various sizes. In addition to the concert hall and the conference centre, the facility includes a public restaurant, sky bar and café. The challenge of integrating a variety of uses and users was accomplished by creating distinct spaces united through shared circulation and access. These conjoined spaces are a physical point of interchange between the people of Iceland and International visitors the hall attracts.
The official inauguration of Harpa coincided with Reykjavik's annual culture festival, and its doors were opened to the public to celebrate the striking new addition to the Iceland and European cultural scene. Locals swarmed to the concert hall not only to enjoy free music, but to use the new facility as a public park. Children biked around the foyer as parents pushed strollers up and down the main hallway. The response from the people was overwhelmingly positive, many expressing excitement to have a new, beautiful space to frequent as an extension of the city. More significantly, the expressed effect of Harpa on the people of Reykjavik is as a symbolic reminder of the resiliency of Icelandic society, and the anticipated recovery of their battered economy.
Harpa is an important catalyst in relation to attracting life and activity to not only Reykjavik's east harbour, but to Iceland in general. The primary objective of the masterplan has been to create a new identity for the east harbour and transform the area into attractive urban space for the citizens.
"The building's name Harpa refers to the musical instrument, the Harp," said Musical Director of Harpa, Steinunn Birna Ragnarsdottir. "It is also the name of the first month of spring in the Nordic calendar – and for the people of Iceland this means the promise of better times."
Incorporating accessibility into its broader site plan, Harpa invites those from the city to embrace it as an indoor public park, bringing exciting new life into their city, and not only promising, but providing better times. Open daily to the public, the facilities finally provide a space for Iceland to showcase their broad spectrum of musical talents, as well as shopping, dining options and available halls for private events.
Aesthetically, it invigorates the harbour, giving the people of Reykjavik a landmark to be proud of.
The technical facilities of Harpa, developed in collaboration with Artec Consultants, maximize acoustics and highlight flexibility for accommodating any scale of conference, convention or concert. The halls vary in size and all facilities are equipped to the highest standard. The reverberation space within the halls can be adjusted according to the individual event, and all spaces are ideal for musical acoustics.
Balconies surround the main hall and the stage is removable. Two doors connect the rehearsal hall to the conference hall, so both halls can be used simultaneously, and the conference hall features retractable ranks of seats. In situ cast concrete is used as the all-embracing material for the main music auditorium. This solid material is known for its beneficial properties in terms of acoustics.
Pragmatically designed in the shape of a shoe box to conduct crisp sound, the Main Hall is surrounded by reverberation chambers which are covered in a red-lacquered birch veneer. The halls are designed for multi-functional use with flexible lighting and acoustic amenities.
Reykjavik was featured in the New York Times mid-January as amongst the top four places in the world to travel to in 2011, with Harpa listed as a main attraction. Offering halls for international conferences, performances by world-renowned musical artists, and an incredible façade that is an Olafur Eliasson art-installation in itself, Harpa is an unequalled cultural gathering point for Iceland and an attractor that is already drawing the masses to Reykjavik.
The new tourism will undoubtedly boost the Icelandic economy, helping their recovery from their economic crisis. In addition, the building is situated at the end of the most active shopping street in Reykjavik, where the 43 metre-high building will rise as a lighthouse and will lead visitors towards the shopping street, adding a boost to Iceland's retail sector.
