Alright I'll try to keep this short and simple. I'm trying to get some input and bounce ideas around to save my clones. I took 20 clones before I put my girls in to flower and followed correct procedure etc etc (had done it before with success). I had them in peat discs under a humidity dome, misting 2-3 times a day..
Everything seemed fine and going smoothly, until week 2 arrived and I still didnt see roots, but I knew they rooted 6 days before because I tested a few by tugging on them and they were in firmly (I ended up trying them all and only 2 were not rooted..they ended up dying). The last couple of days they have been looking real bad, lots of yellowing and curling etc.. But not dead.
I wish I had gotten to it sooner but I looked for a reason and I found it in the bottom of the tray. The misting had been accumulating and soaking the discs constantly. The roots were saturated and suffocated. I pulled one all the way out to look at the roots and they were tiny (probably 1/16in).
Yesterday I picked up some jiffy mix and planted them all in to dixi cups hoping the dry jiffy mix would soak up the moisture from the discs I planted in to the cups. I need root growth to begin again before I water... Thats my theory anyway.
I've been misting more often (4-5 times a day) because the soil is dry...
I'm thinking about watering late tomorrow...
Any input is GREATLY appreciated!
