Could use feedback on these 4 day old clones.
Note the crisped leaves on a couple of 'em.

Cuttings were Jane's lowest/oldest branches which were scrawnier than branches higher up. These weren't getting great light during a good part of the veg cycle but I figured em for sacrificial.

Possibly seeing bumps but just barely. Pretty well sucked dry of chlorophyl, etc. already though.

I went with the no-humidity dome advice and haven't misted with pH'd water cause I wasn't sure misting was ok or not after spraying plant with a product like Wilt Pruf.

No rooting gel was used, just Rootone powder.
Sprayed them with Wilt Pruf once all set in place.

The temps have been screwy.
Put a florescent desk lamp over 'em maybe 4 to 5 inches from tops.
Heating pad under tank is made for back relaxation. Water temp - but not rooting zone - got to 87 on day 1 so have watched it since.

TMI probably.

Basically just wanna know if things look normal. If I should spray with water then respray with the Wilt Pruf. Wilt Pruf instructions say for Rhododendrons just spray once each year before winter.

Have better looking clone candidates on Mother Jane but she's in Day 5 of Flowering and my understanding is that Day 14's the cutoff?

tks guys

Jane's main cola 5 days into 12/12.

Pistils recovering from Kelthane spray treatment for Spider Mites).

Kelthane killed off eggs too.

Kelthane comes as a wetable powder. $8.

Kelthane is not harmful to beneficial fauna.

Kelthane can be sprayed on veggies up to 7 days before harvest.

I am pretending you are all here and we have broken into chanting Co-Lah, Co-Lah, Co-Lah )a la 'Animal House').

Rezz sighs sigh of relief.

Never woulda gotten this far without you guys. Thanks to all.

Nope.

First set, HB.

Adapted smaller scale of technique Zandor outlined in his Cloning 101 FAQ on this site.

I think I coulda used a better air pump. Underside of lid is staying good and wet but somebody said it's best if you can't see bottom of tank for all the bubbles.

Lid is sitting 2.5" from water.

HUGEBUDS: Nicely done with that fitting, man. I hope that whatever you use for an air pump - if your fitting there is for air and not for draining that is - you will definitely be wanting to get check valve(s) on your air hose line.
