I moved it into moistened soil, and it wilted a short time later. It is wilted in it's pot right now. I am hopeful it will recover with time, I'm guessing I needed to acclimate it more or harden it off somehow?
Should I be doming this thing after moving into soil next time, then slowly weaning it on and off maybe?
Yes. I just had one that wilted in soil, so I put it back in the cloner for a while. Now it's back in soil and is doing okay. I up-potted it yesterday.
In my opinion you sholdnt rush any of the processes in growing.. Establish a thick root base before up potting because why not? GEnerally the bigger and stronger the roots the better they will take to their next home
If it has to stay in the box a little later than others, no biggy, that amount is doable, but in need more leaves to drive the root growth and it has to be pretty perfect conditions wise to make it work. Only reason I would plant one like that, has stopped producing roots, due to taking a cut from a lees than ideal spot. I like to give it a whirl, before I say a cutting isn’t viable.
don’t feel bad man,
I threw out 300 or so perfect candidates yesterday. You will get it homie!
I wish everyone who clones here at the farm coulda come and got them. My box is full
I love it for real. It’s just a lot to deal with by myself, it’s a monster. Thank you for the kind words y’all, I really just wanted to convey to not beat yourself up, shit happens. we all have to start somewhere, many moons ago I was just like you too, so hit a salty old dog up if you need any tips I’ll def help any way I can.
Good luck.
