Ok so after a VERY shitty first time grow (only 2-3feet tall with tiny buds...hermis...poor roots....list goes on) i have decided to take a few clones (yes i know they will be hermis but i wanna get it down pat before i move on to the expensive stuff) and make them babies root under 2x4" grow light fleuros. Apparently they are PERFECT for cuttings, but so far i have experienced nothing but problems with themm.
I have taken a few clones, placed them in a 50:40 moss:vermiculite mix under 24 hour light (i heard on some places its good to give ALL light) then read 18 hours is better so put the timer on to 5am-11pm both causing the leaves to turn yellow. While i did get SOME to root they died in the end.
I now have the clones on an 18hour on cycle in a vermiculite, moss, compost, sand mix (more or less a potting mix) and they still seem to be going yellow.
The plants are in a humidacrib with the lid clearly VERY misted and thus suggests HIGH hummidity. The lights have been placed from <1" - 5" from the lid of the humidacrib but still no luck.
I will try take some snaps later this arvo, but so far (assuming you understood my ramblings) anyone got ideas on whats going wrong?
