a.jpg Sorry I posted a similar post yesterday but I just want to know if these can come back or Im wasting my time? I cut these 48 hours ago. Cut dipped into Clonex and placed in riot root cubes. I had the dome on for the first day but was told to take it off until the cuts perked up. I have a 2 bulb t5 about 1 foot over top. I lighly watered the cubes. Ive actually had people tell me this is normal when rooting in cubes.....this is my first time and not sure what to expect. THANKS IN ADVANCE

I left a couple little fan leaves on and halved them. The temp is 76-80. humidity at 60% in room. I took off the dome because it raised the temp to around 82-84

I would water more, not lightly, but a good soaking. Also like gioua stated, too many leaves left on. I keep just a couple of leaves below the tip, and I cut them a little shorter also. Good luck.

Yes, dome back on and I would try misting them every few hours too. looks like they got too dehydrated. You might loose a few of them but I'm sure some will make it.

The cubes should have been soaked in PH6.0 with root tonic beforehand. Cutting extra weight of the lower leaves will help them stand up. You could also trim the top leaves to reduce transpiration. When you spray, don't aim at the clones, just inside the dome. At this point there are no roots so you are relying on the stomata to uptake water/root tonic. Use a desk fan inbetween the bulbs and the top of the dome. They should perk up within a couple of hours.

View attachment 2660572View attachment 2660575Here's mine, I just did them last night, see how I cut the larger leaves in half. I won't even open the vents at the top of my dome for about a week but i will lift the dome once a day. When I start to open the vents, I will just crack them a little at first and slowly each day open them a little more and then once the roots are formed, I will remove the dome. Hope this helps.

hereshegrows has that shit on lock...i trim them to reduce transpiration as mention and mist 2 times a day initially until roots develop. That said..that was some pretty serious drooping.
