cloning problem

I seem to be having a bit of a problem when putting my clones into dirt. I'm using a home made cloner I get every cutting to root jus fine, it when I take the cutting to dirt they start to die. What can I do? Is it a problem that my cuttings are coming from a plant that is in a hydroponic system?

That shouldn't be the problem. What is your hme made cloner like. You may want to move them to perlite and let them establish before moving to dirt or hydro system. Sometimes the roots can get a bit shocked going from one medium to another

thats possible about the hydroponics system i guess..... well not really i dont think that would be an effect. Do you use root hormone?

my cloner is a plastic storage tote with a 365 gph pump with misters. I use root tech rooting hormone and it does great getting my cuttings to root, i have 100% root take so far. Root shock makes sense, I also prep my holes in the dirt with B1.

My first thought would be to check your lable on what ever soil your using. It might have nute's in the mix already and it might be to much for your lil girls to handle. Second thought would be maybe your over watering. keep the soil moist but not wet at first to let those roots stretch out a lil and search for water so they establish a good firm hold. Use distilled water when they are small and delicate. Hope that helps a lil bro.

thanks guys, i will try what you have said. hopefully it works.
