coldest temps that can be cloned in.

[glann]

is 65 F doable for cloning? I just added a heating pad thing last week, but man these things seem to be taking forever. Up until a few weeks ago, when it started getting really cold at night) I had fully rooted clones in no more than 10 days.

yeah I did clones at about 60F and a little below...took a while...they didn't like me...lost several...etc...

it will work..but not ideal so it will take longer and have a lower success rate.... are you using domes? rockwool?

 

[glann]

domes and rockwool, ya. guess I need to work on getting the temps inside above 70 at all times. its in the 70's on days but dips down into mid 60's at night lately

 

[Corso312]

you should be able to keep that dome warmer than that ...are you using t-5's?

I've got it off to the side of a 400 MH, i do have a few spare spiral CFL's (65 watt big ones) i could hang over it

brother i went from about a 90% rate to a fucking struggle just lost my first perpetual wave..... this sucks

^^ This is what happens when you try cloning at low temperatures...it CAN be done, but a very low success rate

80 with heat mat on low new cuts are thriving ....so im back
what happen was the heat was to high or humidity the stems were rotting
