My first round of clines in bubble cloner looks like crap right before they rooted. Yours look like they are having a cal or mag issue. Did you add any calmag?
Nope.
I always used to put a very weak veg solution in mine, like less than 1/5th of min dose etc
i used Clonex and put about 2ml of Superthrive in the 5G res.
M8 there is no way in hell to overwater as they dont have roots ;)
Whats the humidity around your plants?
22celsius ph 5.8 water. Leave them for a week if temps are constant. Then check change water and ph 5.8. Leave a week and there should be rooted clones.
Id give the dome a go if i were you..
Just thinking out loud here. If the clones have big leafs like your i will cut them as dst said..
Hope it works out
i know they aren't overwatered, but it looks exactly like it is. Straight stems with limpy leaves. Ph was at 6.3 yesterday. Humidity around 50%. I'll change out the water, add some Superthrive, and ph to 5.8

I find my clones do better with just plain water. I am using rooting plugs with a rooting powder with pretty much 100% success, except for my screw-ups....I'm using a dehumidifier in the room and it's drying them out every couple of days and I have let them shrivel to the point of no return, but with a little water and spray they recover....tough little plants....without superthrive.

:peace:

So I change out the water in the res and this is what I seeView attachment 3601942View attachment 3601943
Superthrive to blame I'm assuming since I washed this out with bleach before I used it. Anyone use h2o2 in a bubble cloner before? Stems are hard and not slimy so I'm assuming they are ok.
I use h2o2 to clean mine, no additives just a touch of root powder on the stems.

Wow yuck nasty, something ended up in there and multiplied. Either from the super thrive or from tap water if using tap. If so use ro water and a little calmag.
Not the tap water. It roots damn everything the wife puts in it on the window sill. I'm assuming the Superthrive.

I need to tape the hose up to prevent light from traveling through it into the res. Though the worst was directly on the air stone. I read about Rez Clean or something, but sounds like watered down chlorine. I washed out the res and airstone with h2o2, and have reg tap water now.

Edit: The air hose holes were letting on lots of light. I taped those up and put neoprene plugs up against the res, and now it's super dark in there. Fingers and toes crossed!

Do u use microbes or H2O2 at all?

If not, using one or the other (microbes > h2o2 imo) everything would stay nice and clean!

I brew compost teas for my res. No problems ever. Clean as can be

GH Ancient forest + molassas + 48 hours of bubbling > any cleaning agent you could use. Can also add worm castings, bat guano, kelp (yeye), etc....
