Cloning Lemon Skunk

Hi there!

This is my second attemt on cloning my lemon skunk. First time i did some mistakes, but I hope i got it right on second attempt. They are 6 days inn now, but so far no signs of any roots

My questions is, do some types use more time on rooting?
How often should i mist?
Whats the ideal room temp?
Should they go on 24/24 light or should I give them less light?

I don't think you will have to wait much longer to see roots. As they have stayed green and healthy for 6 days, I would expect to see roots in the next week. My shortest time to date is 8 days and longest 14.

As for your 3 other questions, I am going to kinda dodge them. Because like a lot of techniques, everyone seems to have their own methods that work for them.

I mist once a day everyday till I see a root and start to open up the vents after about 4/5 days.
The 24/0 20/4 18/6 debate will probably go on forever. I have no idea which is best, I just know that 18/6 is the cheapest. :)

yes some types take longer to root ...you should NEVER mist the cuttings,it can cause mold and rot....ideal rooting zone temps are between 75-80,humidity 85-90%,your dome is to wet .....24 hours of weak light, if the leaves start to yellow the light is to INTENSE and should be dimmed,moved away........are those peat pellets your rooting in ?i love those....after the first soak squeeze out the excess water and don't water ever again as they hold to much water as they are

Im growing them in RootRiot, They have 4x18w cfl tubes.

Ive been misting a coupple times a day, many or most of the grow wids ect ive seen tells to mist now and then.

Ok, so, should i take out the clones, squees the rootriot cubes bc they are very soaky?

And some of the leafs are stating to turn yellow at the tip, I thought it was the plants way to feed itself duing this phase.

7th is banned so here my 2cents,if you see water on ur dome ur humidity is 90+,no need to mist.a single 18w cfl will provide light for a 2 foot by 2 foot area full of clones if it is 18 inches from thier tops.yellowing leaf is bad and caused by too much light. never let ur cubes sit in water,it will cause rot.
