so i HAD 6 clones. 2 died due to unnatural deaths(my fault), but the 4 others have been sitting in their jiffy pellets for almost three weeks and NO new growth and they just seem to be slowly decaying. all i've been able to do was to maintain them but no new growth whatsoever. i was thinking it was the jiffy pellets or maybe i wasnt using them right? has anyone used them for cloning marihuana? :o

Jiffy pellets: the ones that come as disks that you soak in water? I use them for cloning, and they work good. Before inserting the clone I roll the hydrated pellet around between my hands to compress it a little and to close that big hole that comes premade in the top. Good luck!

have pics? do you have a humidity dome? how warm is the area? did you use rooting hormone? what lighting do you have them under? how far away from the plants is said light? what cycle you running.

ill try to put pics tommorow. no humidity dome. they're in the house which is 72ish but im sure it's a little warmer under their 13watt cfl. i did have a 26watt in there but it actually burnt out. and they're about 3 or 4 inches away from the light. and the cycle is 18 on 6 off. since i didnt have a humidity dome i misted them multiple times a day, but have cut down recently. oh and i used root-tone from a nearby garden place. it's powder form.
