Cloning issues

and put them under 2 45 watt flourescent grow lights for 22/2.

Are these 45 watts, consumed?

The fluorescent, is it big? Or is it like, "comparable to a 45watt incandescent"?

I would believe that's too much ligth... use a small bulb... or just one of them...

In my super-limited experience, clones need little light... or (IMO) they go crazy using the light to "grow"... instead of growing roots....

When I did my clones, I had a 8watt CFL (consumed 8 watts), about 2 feet away... maybe 3 feet. And it worked... nicely.

Don't take this as gospel, but that's just what my stoner head would tell you...

Try out less light... hmmm....

I am growing White Widow. I know the plants themselves have been extremely easy to grow.

I'm growing White Widow too dude!

Nice. As you say, I've also found the plants extremely easy to grow... I think. Yeah. Nice :thumbsup:

Let us know how it goes please!

(and, for server hard disk space conservation)
gK will ask you for pictures... so... any pics possible?

Best,

I seem to be following the steps for cloning correctly, but am having limited success. I took 5 clones the first time, and had one survive, and took 9 this last time and only had one survive. I am clipping a growing shoot below the 2nd set of leaves, then putting the cut stalk under water and cut it again at a 45 degree angle. I dip the stalk in a rooting hormone, and put it in a medium (kinda like rockwool, don't remember the Rating: 5
