Are you gonig to cut open the fabric for each root or remove the fabric based on plant size?

At each root node I cut a small hole in the fabric, paint the bottom root with Clonex gel and then staple it down. Lots of work but worth it in the long term.

Sounds great but like a lot of work. I remember Jamie Graham used the rooting gel in 2024 or last year. Did he benefit from it- or do you certainly know if it is woth it?

As far as i know he still uses it. Matt does too. It obviously has some effect on the roots, the question is just: Is the total root mass/surface area greater or does it just look like it.
