just got clones, not sure what to do

so i got them under my t5 fixture and they are doin alright... i guess... its really hot in the closet even with the door open.. talken mid 90s... also they came in rock wool cubes, i dont know how long im supposed to keep them in these cubes or put them in soil or wtf to do wit them.

damn mid 90s thats real high but will grow, not well but will grow.
neway you need to keep a high humidity and have the rockwool moist not wet.
Wait for roots to come and just put them in soil or w.e. u using.

the roots are starten to come out the bottom of the rockwool... i want to transplant over to soil and veg them for about a month before i flower... do i need to take them out of the rockwool or should i put the cube into soil...?

just put in the soil and water.

The first thing I would do is put in a fan and the first watering I would use Rhizatonic or something to boost root growth. A t-5 doesnt get very hot so you should be good with a fan blowing all the time. 85 degrees is max before your plants start to stress. Rockwool is a pain for me so I transplant into dirt or a waterfarm. good Luck!

actually bubbakush, i know t5s dont get hot.. but my room is still heating up..even from just t5s.. i have them only a few inches from tops and i have multiple fans... id ont know how to get the temp down so im thinken about raising the light... would having it 6 inches above, be better or keep it with higher temp and close? no sign of burn yet*

6in is very high for t5's how hot is it around the rom? like da surrounding temps?

What is the temp in your house? Is it 95 degrees also? If your house is cooler, then something other then the t-5 must be heating that area up. Look into it.
But anyway put a fan blowing fresh cool air into you grow area from outside the room. Another one blowing warm air out would be nice.

Pictures of your set up would really help. No one can really give a good answer with such little information.

I use a 4' t-5 light and 6-8 43 watt cfls in a extra bathroom for vegging with the door closed, and it stays at about 80 degrees. and my house is at 78 degrees. Also it gets to about 118 degrees ouside here during the summer. It was a nice cool day today. Only hit 92. SWEET!!!!!!! I can see the power bill already dropping.

I was having a lot of problems with heat. I got a venting tube used for dryers and vented my A/C into the room. It help with cooling during the day and during the night I put it on fan and it blows fresh co2 from outside which is also a big help.
