Get your light as close to the top of the dome as possible. Once you’ve moistened your medium and misted the inside of the dome, keep it closed for at least 3 days. After 3 days, take the dome off to exchange the air, spray the dome again and put it back on for another 3 to 5 days. After that amount of time, you should notice roots.

So i guess my next question is how do i know when theyre rooted? Is there a point in time that i need to remove the humidity dome? I ended up taking a lot more clones and put them in the same dome. Pics included.

I see you clipped the ends of the fan leaves... that’s good. It will aid you in looking for new growth. Yellowing in the center of the clone is also a sign of new growth. To be sure, I’d wait until you see roots coming out from the bottom of your plugs/medium. What you’re looking for is noticeable new growth.

Remember to not open the dome too much. Only after a few days to re-mist. Before you spray the dome, leave the dome off for a couple of minutes. I call this breathing and it helps them tremendously.

First... Let me apologize for my first post... I apparently did not read your entire post.

You have definitely made a great comeback!

You don't want stem coming out bottom. Only new roots.

10 - 14 days is very accurate for rockwool... Leave humidity dome on until ready to transplant with new roots coming out bottom. But allow humidity to drop a little throughout 14 days.

Crucial: don't let plug dry out... But don't keep it soaking wet. Somewhere in between!

We all do it a bit differently though..I wait about 5-7 days and then begin opening the vents on the dome to get the plant "hardened off"..Gradually removing the dome and letting the rockwool cubes dry a bit to encourage the roots to seek water below..If anyone begins to wilt in about 30 minutes, I leave the dome off. If only one or two plants wilt, I put a semi clear solo over it, and usually they perk right back up. NOTE: Adjustments of times are needed, depending on strain, etc, as as well as your own RH and Temp..here in Nevada, my house is like 30%RH, so I leave the dome on a lil longer. If the cubes are always wet, the stems will rot and "damp off"..too dry and ..:banghead:
Success for me is great with a simple propagator and dome..My DIY aero cloner sucked (prolly was me..LOL) at making clones (from day 1 and always cleaned with bleach too) , and has been scavenged for parts..
As soon as roots emerge from the cube..into soil they go.

I will recommend this, use something between pots and floor if in a winter area. Also, for veg, raise those temps to 82-84 and keep the rh to 65-70% with good air movement. Get read for explosive growth.

Happy Frog is good stuff. I’ve had great results with a 50/50 mix of FFOF and Happy Frog during veg in the past.

Nah, you just need to make yourself one of these.

It’s awesome man. Once you get it dialed in it’s just mix and check ph daily. Then when you want to make any changes it’s as simple as adjusting a timer.
