problem with my clone

[slayah]

well It's actually a branch in a cup, I am putting it in to the box at night and at day I put it into my grow box to make 12/12 shedule. the thing is that in the morning then I take her out she looks fine, and in the evening after a day in growbox the leaves are droopy,and same thing happens everytime. what's the problem ? is it temperature or what which makes leaves go droopy ? the other plant which is in the pot isn't droopy.

I'm not trying to clone it, I'm trying to solve out what's the cause of the droopy leaves .

ok dude,first off is it even rooted?! now when you say you put it in grow box,and with the light cycle you described i'm assumeing you wanna flower it?if it's not rooted and you want to flower it,your wasting your time.in order to root clones properly you want to get yourself a few basic things,a clone/seedling dome.these can be purchased at any nursery or garden supply store.rooting gel,i like to use one called wilsons liquid root stimulator.i've found it works great without any problems.if you can't find that try to find one called olivia's cloning gel.that one's really good,costs a lil more but has trace amounts of food in it so they can eat properly.and the last thing you need is peat pellets or oasis grow cubes..or even rockwool cubes(the smallest ones).if you only want to root one plant as i'm guessing then you want to try to get her into a small enough dome so that theres condensation building a little on the sides.you also want to make shure you have vent holes in it.usually in standard sized domes i like to cut out the top corners of the dome with dime sized holes.or 3/4 inch maximum...if you dont wanna get into it too much and just try your luck at it simpler then just leave that branch in water with 2-300 PPM ferts an NPK ratio of around 10-30-10 or something close.just make shure there's highest levels of P in the mix,that's what roots are made of.keep it under light for 24 hrs on cycle,never off.do not let them get darkness until ready to veg,as that's whats causing them to probably get droopy.pot likes temp ranges from 60 degrees(indica) to as high as about 90-95 degrees(sativa).and btw can you describe that growbox abit for me and the light cycles you use in it,so that i might be able to answer you abit better....

not trying to clone it.....damn i wrote all that shit for nuthin lol ah well,in that case,tell me about the lighting in it and describe it abit for me(the grow box)...are you talking about THE grow box as seen on pot tv???

[slayah]

didn't see the pot tv. it's about 8 sq. feet. it has 3x 24W CF bulbs(cool white), it also has 2 intake holes and 2 exhaust PC fans. I used that clone or how to call it for sexing, I was putting it into the darkness for 12 hours everyday. and after whose 12 hours of darkness she it always looked fine, but after I take it out and put it into my growbox along with the other plant, that clone is becoming droopy. I tried to put it hiegher everyday and watch how it's doing and the closer it was to the lamps the more droopy it looked so I guesss it's too hot there, on the other hand the other plant wich is only an inch from the lamps is preatty good.
