clones wilting

[BluntFullOfKush]

Whats up yall, its been a while. Sence i been gone i have up graded my grow room to a grow tent with 2 400w hps lights, the tent jus came 2day. i have about 18 clones from 4 strains, 1 special mother plant, i made her:hubba: . But when i take the lid off my clone box, (wich is nothing more then a tupper ware container) jus for a few min they will wilt:holysheep: . i have them in jiffy pellots, and i do see roots come'n out the sides and bottum of them. they turned a week old wed. whats goin on whit them???

they need to be hardened off.

if i get you right you have them under the 400? i also get some clones wilting when i transfer from cloner under fluros to 400 watt. if this is what's happening the way i deal with it is that i set my timer 15mins/15mins off for the first day just to let them pick up under the light. if theyr wilting under the fluros after you're opening the lid check which are rooted and which aren't. it should be that the unrooted ones are the ones wilting which means they still want that dome, if the rooted ones are wilting under the fluros only when you remove the lid then it beats the hell outa me

@ Umbra, thats wht i was thinking i need to do with them... Would i go about doing this by takeing the lid of more each day???

@ Zem, no i get them under my t5 fluros, and its the leaves that curling and twisting after i take the lid off, not the whole stem. and yes its sum with roots that r doing that 2

Yep, take the lid off for longer periods each day.

Clones don't need much light, I just use 2 40w T12s 18-20" above the clones, no misting and the dome never stays on longer than 3 days, usually less. Those T5s might be a bit much, or too close.

Water them well, then take the dome off and when you put it back on, do it so it lets some air in to get them used to a lower humidity.
