Looks like to many leaves, from what I have been reading says to only leave one fan leaf, also what are you using for the dome?
I'll be keeping an i on your clone attempt as I'm going to be doing my first cloning soon. Hope it goes well for ya!

The dome is just a clear rubbermaid tub their like 5 bucks at wally world there's a pic of it on the previse page, I live in the desert so the humidity dome is a must for me.

The 6 new 42 watt bulbs I put in made my temps rise 10*f, so I had to make shift this vent system. The one on top is the exhaust, I have a pc fan hooked up to it now it vents into the attic. The one on the bottom is hooked right into the a/c duct. Then I ran the hose down by the fan





Their 6 weeks old now and about 9" to 10" tall, I think I'm going to switch my lights to 12/12 and start flowing in the next few days as soon as I come up with some were to put the clones

takes about 10 days to set for the roots. but next time cut those fan leaves off and only leave the top....u wont have a prob leaving them they will just take a little longer....but they look pretty good

Ok so I went ahead and cut of the bigger fan leafs a few days ago so far so good, I took them out of the closet with the others, so they have there own space and lighting now. Tell me what you think!!

Right now I've got about the same lumens as you, w/ 399 watts.

my setup has
3 23 watt bulbs w/ 1600 lumens
3 26 watt bulbs w/ 1700 lumens
6 42 watt bulbs w/ 2800 lumens
Total lumens = 26,700

The reason why I took the clones when I did (before the plants were sexed) was so that I could flower my plants and sex them without having to clone a plant in flower and revert my clones back to veg, so now all I have to do when I find out there sex is toss the male clones, I hope that makes sense.

Also those are preflowers in the pic's right?

Makes a lot of sense, I would do that but I'm running out of space as it is, so I think I will wait until I'm able to sex them, that way I can ditch the males and fill up the room with clones when their ready.

IMO,If your going to keep the ones in the rubbermaid tub I would suggest a good trimming around the bottom or your going to get mold and that shits no fun! :0
Most of the bottom doest get enough light to produce much and it helps the air circulate better. Lookin good!

dude I live in the desert mold is my last concern, but ya it is good for air circulation. I have about the bottom 4 nodes trimmed off.
