Here is my clone setup

[GrizzlyAdams]

I have 2 rubbermaid tubs that were completely sterilized, one inverted on the top of the other. The lights I have on there are 1,600 lumen bulbs. All are 6500k except for one 2700k.

I took the clones one week ago today, they have yet to show roots. Two have gone yellow and fallen over. Clonex gel in rapid rooters.

These going to live? going to die? I thought I'd have roots showing now but. . . maybe I should stick to seeds.

Any input would be great fellas (and ladies). I'd really appreciate it.

Are you misting the plants? try using a very mild veg nutes by misting, it helps with transpiration as well. Some plants take longer to clone than others. What is the air temp in box? Rooting mats w/therm control work wonders. I also use a small amount of trichoderma when misting, helps control pests and disease.

mist them 2X daily and be patient 10-17 days can be common,
the cool can slow them down

are they warm?? if not

look into a heating pad next time

I have not been misting them. The box has been at a pretty good level of humidity. I have the fox farms trio for nutes, any of those work? If not I'll stick with tap water @ 7.2pH.

Temp inside the box is around 80-85F by my guesstimation. Outside is 74-76 and the inside is considerably warmer without feeling hot. I'll start misting.

Are these still viable?

I've brought worse back. In regards to FF, 1/8 strength grow big and TRICHODERMA

You say "tap water" are you letting the Chlorine evaperate?
!0 to 14 day is the normal for roots some root sooner than others.

 

[dman1234]

they could be fine yelloing is expected, mist them and give em another 7-10 days,

Roger will begin misting and wait longer. I have only a few days before my mother goes into full flower and I can't take any more clones.

Shes completely enormous, should I take a few more?

Grown from an underdeveloped bag seed. I had a dispute with a fellow grower that seed bank seeds will always crush bag seeds. Thus far this wimpy bag seed is crushing his lemon haze and wonder woman. Heh.

*Edit* The pot in picture #2 is a 3 gallon. Its around 4 feet tall and close to that far across. Shes in a 22 gallon rubbermaid tote. Topped for 4 colas, its going well.

There is no reason that you cannot take clones from a plant in flowering.

hi grizzly id guess that the water ph of 7.2 is a bit on the high side for anything mj related saying that id take more cuts asap.

once yellowing starts to show on clones its indicative that they are starting to root so as long as you keep temps to 75f ideally and keep humidity up they will all pull through.

i would not mist nor nute them as yet just let nature take its course and all will prevail.

i have to date without blowing my own trumpet taken approx 10,000 clones over the past 12 years for myself and moreso a commercial grower friend with whom i would without fail take 200 clones each 2 weeks for 2.5 years and at worst have had to wait for 21 days at the most for roots to show and at best 4 days.

roger, do you think the setup I have will work?
