I am new at cloning in rockwool. I researched through the threads and found some great information. My clones have been sitting now for over 2 weeks. Some have roots, some don't. But the leaves are turning yellow. Can anyone give me a 1..2.3.. on how to do this? Here are the steps I did and maybe someone can point to where I am wrong.
I put the ph to 5.5 and soaked the cubes for 24 hours.
I cut the clones off healthy plants at a 45 degree angle.
I left about 3-4 leaves per plant and trimmed the larger ones in half
I used great white and clonex gel and put in the tray with the dome on and a heating pad.
I'm using veg t5 light and left on for 24 hours
I opened the vents on day 2 as there was a lot of moisture in the dome
I didn't realize till reading all the threads from before that I can remove the dome after a certain time, but I have kept it on this whole time just removing it now and then to check plants
I would say now it's been 18 days and maybe 40% have some roots and some of the leaves are curling in and some are turning slightly yellow. They certainly aren't flat out beautiful green leaves.
So this is where I'm at. I removed the dome now after advice from reading previous posts. I do have a ph meter and ppm/ec reader . Do I use R/O water? no, I take my well water and ph from there. It generally will still read .4 ppm so I usually adjust off that.
Please please please help
