I didn't mean to suggest that I let the peat pellets dry, or even near dry, completely. Once they start to turn light brown on the top, I give them about 10cc of plain water. I've read, over and over, not to mist the cuttings directly as the roots will be prompted grow in search of water. There are no visible roots yet; my clones are only cuttings so far.

All of the temps taken were from the tops of the leaf canopy, whether in veg or flower room. Greenhouse effect adds about seven degrees F to the cuttings when I cover them with the dome. I'm finding that the cuttings are standing easy with hours of no dome and very low humidity, about 30%.

I'm mostly concerned with the cuttings and getting them to root. If the plants that the cuttings came from have Pythium, as I understand, the cuttings will also have Pythium systemically. If they only have a nutrient disorder, we can fix that pretty easily.

It's pretty hard, though, gauging what is going on by looking at pictures: P deficiency mimics fungus; under-fert looks like fert burn; gnat larvae cause everything to look like everything else.....

I feel like all I can do is keep the variables in check and wait to see if they fall over on me one day. I just hope someone shows up with a "I know what's going on".

I appreciate your time, friends.
