Cloning can be hard in soil.. Just give them time to recover..

[redman71]

do they look over watered? I wasnt sure if I should add some Earth Juice yet or not:stoned:

[PaRaNoIa]

Nah dude.. Judging from the soil, they could even be underwaterd..

I underwaterd my plants alot.. And I got told I was overwatering them.. But that was not my problem..

How much water do you give them every time?

Dude clones that young should be in a dome until the root system is well developed....

Maybe so..

I've never cloned cannabis plants.. But I was always growing little plants when I was a kid..


I ALWAYS cloned n' shit.. And I never put anything in a dome.. Just a glass of water until roots were developed..

But cannabis is a "sensitive plant" lol

Hey Para, if that works i dunno, what i´m trying to say is that clones deppend only on the leafs to continue their existence until the root system is developed, the dome is just a more efficient way to get the provided water on the leafs cause it raises the RH to high levels, providing water and nutrients that are usually taken by the roots ... using ur method on MJ may work but the rate of survival must be low.

Hey PaRaNoIa
I have cloned maybe 8 times and I always do it the same way..put in soil with lots of perlite in a plastic cup under 12/12, keep soil wet (misting bottle), and wait for roots to form, then off to a bigger pot to get stronger roots. Even though I do agree that putting the little ones under a dome would be premium, I have always done it this way..probably the lazy way, but I have never lost a little lady...KNOCK ON WOOD!!!
Now back to you. Your ladies are in big pots. It is harder to monitor the soil dampness in pots that big. Do you have roots. I would say after 30 days and no roots is no good. Yes soil may take a little longer, but not that long. I would take one and gently tip the pot over as if transplanting and check it out...Any roots?

yes, the pots are too big for their size. you really need to start them out in something smaller like mentioned above. There are no roots to uptake all the extra water. You want them moist, but not drenched or stagnant. clones, especially if they had a rough beginning, can take weeks to recover.

move them to a red plastic up w. soil.... they look in shock or over watered..
