My clones are turning yellow

Forsure. Thanks for all the clone info from everyone, Im gonna try and water clone some cuttings once my plants stretch. Monster crop all natural clones is my aim.

I’ve cloned in plain water for over thirty years. Corner of veg room, change water every other day, can stay there for months. Just carefully rip the aluminum foil and trim entangled roots if needed-it will not harm them.

Skimmed and jumped ahead.

Your issue wasn't cubes to wet yet but once roots where starting I think it would have been.

I'm 99.999999% sure you gave them waaaaay to much light.

They have no roots and are counting on using stored energy to put into root growth.

But instead they are being forced to focus on photosynthesis and they ran out of notes fast. No photosynthesis no green and no energy to make roots.

Under low light they should not yellow. Very low light... just enough not to flower.

This way the use the stored energy from the photosynthesis before they were cut to put into roots instead of trying to drive photosynthesis processes hard without being able to uptake the required nutrients and water.

Of you take health cuts and keep them under low light they stay mice and green and root waaay faster.

You know what, youre right. I had them getting about 6000 lux of light intensity. Thats how I measure it, idk what the par is. Its coming out of a hlg qb 96 with a hlg 185h 3400c or some. I fucked up and grabbed a driver thats actually only pushing 85 watts. Well I hung it pretty far up and kept the clones low. Last time I used a blurple with only the veg switch. I just connected the dimming wires together. Thanks man, and thanks for the water clone info. Hopefully these clones arent fucked, I mean the bigger cuts will probably be fine, but the tops have been getting too much light for 2 weeks.

Never say die i suppose

I am having the same problem and one biologist told me to trash her… she’s Acapulco Gold. I’ve had 3 others tell me to make sure to hold on and let her soil dry up, that it was the moisture killing it. I used raw, organic honey to clone and was thinking I needed potassium. Thank you for this because I’ve been hunting EVERYWHERE for a sign!!! Thank you for the help!

I was wondering this… thank you
