i'm after putting a 250w envirolite into a 1.5m square tent with a inlet & outlet fan, the heat is now 24 degrees, it's also in a back room, does anyone think i should be ok to go ahead & put some clones in this, i'd so much hassle the last few weeks with the weather in the loft & cupboard, i'm worried at this stage, any advice would be great, thanks . .

I keep my clones around 80 to 85 degree's and the humidity at 90% and get 95%+ rooted cut's in 7 to 10 days.

i know my friend, it's like they usually work easy but the summer weather is so unpredictable, i've suffered big time the last month or so with clones & seeds, with rising temp's etc, but i think i should be ok to use the method i wrote, i'm thinking weather to leave it for two weeks till the middle of august or use the tent now, if i put a bowl of water under a 250w envirolite would it be good enough to rise humidity . .

One trick to raise humidity if you have any kind of propagation dome is to mist the inside of the dome every few hours or as often as possible then place the dome back over them.

As far as heat goes, my experience is that unrooted clones can take more heat than a full-sized plant. You might try to spray the leaves with a wilt-proofing agent to keep them from transpiring as much....? It might just get ya through till the temperatures swing in your favor.

Some moist coco in the bottom of the propagator does the trick dude...

what exactly is a wilt proofing agent, also, i usually just spray the clones as inside the prob often as i feel needed ok, thanks kid . .

wilt stop from Advanced nutes , use a dome or get some cling wrap and make a few tiny holes in it and use it to make a dome over your cuts,

[ProGroWannabe]

There are a few different ones. Like Midnight said, Wilt Stop is one. Another is a spray called Wilt Pruf. http://www.advancednutrients.com/lan...p_landing.html If ya wanna check it out.

i had one, but i didn't think much of it, how long would you let the roots grow too and how long would you leave them in it for, i think my problem the last few weeks was the summer weather, up and down was terrible, not to worry,
