I don't take actually take temps but they stay about 65-75 which is a little on the cool side but its winter & this room stays chilly since I have to keep it closed off. In next few months it should average about 75-85 since it'll be warm out. I'm so limited in space & other amenities for proper growing in this apt but I do what I can. New cutting will be posted in little while
Yea , gotcha , thats a part of the equation , and where many people get frustrated ....
Cool temps arent bad and reduce shock (thats just my own goofy notion)
I mean when i first started growing , i would put some cuts in the salad bin of the fridge to preserve them for a few days ( stasis ? )i if i needed to buy time...it worked
Then humidity and warmth are a huge
factor , clones always go off better for me in warmer temps , but in winters i can have trouble or delay from cold
Cold keeps mold and creepy fungus , etc at bay , but slows down growth , so give and take....
Of course we all know there is a temp , humidity range that is perfect for each stage of growth , including clones....
But who has perfect year round conditions .....
I use water in a cup as a last resort because where im at , it either gets too cold , or too warm and i have a superstition about airborne bacteria etc collecting in the water , and the almost daily task of changing out with fresh water ....
Havent done a lot of aquaponics lately , used to do the project plastic boxes , soda bottles etc , always fun to do the inventive stuff , and the air stones in water seem to really bring clones to life , going to get back on that when i have warmer temps here and clear out some space.....
Bigcube showed off some pics with a wick in a cup that were amazing ......
