My clones are starting to droop a bit and its making me worried. (1) Is sagging a little but still looks ok, but the leaves on (2) have folded up a bit and they've gone a little yellow. Any help or reassurance would be much appreciated. Thanks.

How many days old are they? I dont see a humidity dome you use 1 correct?Did you use gel or powder rooting hormone? Tear the cubes apart so roots dont get tangled from each cube.Using a heating bad? light mist with only slight cube moisture?

Yea i just took them out for the photo. I used herbs rapid root gel. they are 3 days old. i think at the begining i might have misted them a bit much so now im just misting the inside of the dome when it looks dry.

they droop then perk back up. yellow leaves means they are feeding off themselves to grow roots.

It's fine it has to feed off itself in order to develop roots, I wouldn't give them any nutes that young.

Thanks fdd2blk. Im scared to give them a spray cause im sure i over sprayed them at the start.

Thats all good guitrjam there should be enough nutrients in your soil anyway. I doubt they need more if they're only showing a couple of leaves.

maybe a little clean water sprayed (no foliar feed) - this especially helpful at early stage- "waters" them thru there leaves...
