I hope that helps, i dont know what else to do!
A humidity dome will make a HUGE difference on the droop. Within 24 hours they will perk back up if stuck in one. You can make one out of several things. Cardboard box with no top, use plastic wrap to cover it. Or, take a huge zip lock baggy, stick a clone or 2 in each one on a plate and seal it. You need to get the humidity up for the clones since they cannot respirate on their own not having roots to replace the water loss.
GreenThumbDoc Reviewed by GreenThumbDoc on . Experienced Cloners, please please help. I have 10 plants going right now, all females, and the day before i put them on a 12/12 cycle, i cut 12 clones. Im using "rootech" cloning gel. it says to dip the cutting in the gel, then plant it. but when i dip the cutting in gel, and plant it, it dies within 5 hours. What am i doing wrong? Rating: 5
