i have clones that are three days old now.. just wondering how long i need to keep them in their humidity domes? until they take root?? not sure, some help on this matter would be great..

also when they do come out, do you give them bloom nutes or veg nutes??

keep the humidity as close to 95% as you can too,

i have them in peat pellets.. do they not need nutes for about 2-3 weeks like when you first start a seedling out??

me too 2 weeks after transplant they only get a half strength solution for a week,
then full strength,i give them full strength rooting complex in the half strength nute solution,
here's mine at week 4 and a bit,i used peat cubes similar to jiffy pellets too.Pic 2 is a few days after transplant

i also use peat pellets and a heated propagator from BnQ (10 quid). 100% success.
2 weeks in the dome or till strong roots show, i also only use root juice/rhizotonic 1st week in pot, then norm feeding program.
good luck

I got a heated one too but haven't used it yet :( I got a big
propagation dome and a tray it fit's tightly into,i juast put water
at room temp in the bottom of the tray great way of keeping the humidity
up if you are at work and stuff and can't be on hand to spray every 4hours or so,
must dig out that heated one!!!!

The heated trays are v.good imo. roots love them. I put normal water into the bottem of tray and let the heat evaporate the water.
im getting extreme humity. Also to be honest i spray twice a day, once in the morning and once at night.
