CLONES WONT SURVIVE!!

ive been cloning and the method im using is working great..stinkys method... the only problem is.. after they've rooted from under the humidome i put them in a small ebb and flow iwth t5 floro's just to grow them up a lil more before i eithe rflower them or veg and they just start wilting and turning yellow a few days after being in the system.. they're being fed like 3 or 4 times a day with 1/4 strength nutes and the lights are perfect.. the only thing i can think of is the humidity levels dropping so much from out of the humidome and going into the dry basement .. but ive had teh furnace off for days since they've been in there so its not like super dry but how could i fix it and how could i get the humidity levels up (cheapest way) if thats what it is.. they're just like wilting slowly and not liking the light.. after a few days i expected tehm to be jumping up towards the light and growing but instead they slowly start turning yellow and wont grow

youre right, that's the problem!
when you take them out of the dome, spray them with wilt-pruf, and only keep flouros on them for the first week after taking the dome off, because the HIDs mean FAST transpiration and that's not a good thing for a brand-new [read: small] root system!

I think the cheapest way to build humidity is to hang large, soaking, hot towels in the grow room. Also, get a humidifier or two from the pharmacy...not that expensive. Good luck! (make sure towels are clean!)

I bought my humidity dome which holds over 65 cuttings for $2.50 at the local grow store. Add another 3 bucks and you get the black tray the dome was made to fit over and another 5 for the tray with 60-some clone stations that is made to fit inside the black tray!

that is called a jiffy starter kit. bunch of weird ideas here...lol

listen to stinky on this one.

I don't use a dome for clones. I spray right away with no-wilt and they stand erect, throughout rooting process. If you cannot find no-wilt...miracle-grow leaf shine works as well, and easy to obtain @ wally's or hopot

??? why are you feeding them 3-4 times a day?
