you already have 100% humidity - spraying them accomplishes nothing - dont spray clones - the extra weight stresses them out -
be patient - one week is way too short of time to start rippping pucks apart to look for roots
FYI you don't really need clonex I just use plan water and jiffy peat pellets and have roots between 10-14 days. I all use is a heating pad under my clones and keep the dome on. Good luck
I would move them in direct light the light you have in the pic want be too strong if fact they should root faster I use a 150 watt hps for cuttings.View attachment 521785 View attachment 521788
Should i put them i more direct light then that? I was under the impression i was to give them filtered light.
I use to think the same about hormones until I ran out used none and had great results. Do a experiment with both see what you come up with
filtered light for sure - when clones have less than ideal conditions they could take a few weeks to root - if they droop in the first day or so if you prop them up with a toothpick or a crutch made with green garden wire it will give them a much better chance
theres a million tricks and dos and donts when it comes to cuts - for example you could pack pure coco into small plastic cups and root in those with no dome - at the end of the day you have to figure out what works for you
Thanks mload. Im sure you guys have answered this question 10,000 times. I appreciate your time and patience. If you guys are even remotely interested, ill post updates. Thanks again !
If you want better success with cloning, get rid of that "Cell Tray" so you can get better aeration in the root zone….Trust Me!
I dealt with that years ago…… these days, I get 100% roots within a week every single time!

I use Root Riots, Clonex Cloning Gel, as well as Clonex Cloning Solution @ 20ml per gallon of RO.
Soak Root Riots in Cloning Solution for no less then an hour.
Go and get yourself a kitchen plate and fill it with clonex solution to make a small reservoir.
Next, take your clone and place it on the plate, allowing it to submerge under the clonex solution.
Take your razor blade and make your 45* angle cut under the clonex solution to keep air from getting in the stem.
Next, dip the "tip only" in the Clonex Cloning Gel making sure that not too much is left on. (you don't need a giant glob)
Now, stick the stem into the Root Riot plugs until the stem nearly reaches all the way to the bottom of the plug.
Next, grab some clean scissors and cut all the leaves from the clone in half…maybe a little more.
Place clones in dome and NEVER spray the clones….EVER!
Only spray the inside of the dome!!!!
Close all air ports on dome and leave alone for 3-4 days! LITERALLY
Keep T5's 2 feet away from top of dome and no more then 4 bulbs should be lit. (8 bulbs is too much light IME)
After 3-4 days…. take each clone and dunk it in "Fresh" Clonex Cloning Solution @ 20ml. per gallon of RO (10ml per half gal…etc)
After dunking the cubes….carefully squeeze any access solution from cubes and place back under the dome.
Spray inside of dome ONLY… NOT the clones!!!!
Leave alone for another 3-4 days and you should have small roots by then…
Good Luck~
Your Cell tray is NOTHING like mine!!!
