they might need some nitrogen, or they're still rooting. is there any new growth? pics would help.

Mg soil has nutes in it then you water with mg thinking it will help = nute burn! Then you flush but not enough, so
You flush again = water logged plant! In all this have you checked the ph? Yellowing cant be 2 things a lock out!
Or there hungry! My advice is to chill and leave them alone to recover! Then look to adding a bit of nutes

very good point with the water logging, add more holes to your pot if you have to and poke holes in the top soil away from the main stem to wick out moisture. and pH is really important as well.

You can keep those girls going..... they are not wilting & you see some green growth. I wouldn't put them in a dome this can promote mold problems. Proper lighting & watering, air circulation is what they need. When they droop is when they need 100% humidity.

Sounds like you did everything you shouldn't have. NO nutes until they are atleast 6" tall and fully rooted and growing great. Flush means to put 3x the volume of water through the pot.
1 dixie cup of soil will get 3 dixie cups of water for a flush.
Get a ph kit at the local hydro store. Not the kind for pools!

Good luck. Its not easy growing weed from seed as a noob never mind cloning. You should be alright if you do what a master grower says to do. Find 1 person that has great success cloning and documenting it in their grow journal. Have him help you on a 1 on 1 basis through private messaging. This way you dont get 100 different answers and end up more confused than ever. Stick with 1 person that knows their shit to help you on this.

I would go with a 4' shop light with grow tubes that you can get at Home Depot for pretty cheap. Then if your growing the clones for longer than 3 weeks, I would get a 400w Metal Halide bulb with a reflector to give them enough light until your buddy returns from the hospital.Why aren't you allowed to use the lights your buddy had them under? You cant just keep them where they were?

death and decay of existing growth is normal. as long as you have new healthy growth, their doing just fine. put the clones with new healthy growth under medium light(not too strong though, their like seedlings at this point, very fragile) as for the clones that have not rooted yet. place in humidity dome, under weak light. you want them to know the difference between night and day, but not try to use all their energy on photosythesis. they have to focus on creating a root system

im kinda wondering why i didnt ask that.. haha.

hey every one.. i have good news the plants seem to be coming back !!!! sry i havent posted sooner but i was seriously running outa steam!!! i will post some new pics most have the plants look %100 better i did lose 5 but at this point i can live with that i really want to extend my gratitude to every one that has help me...

after i post some pics some comments on how they look would be great.. and a lil direction.. lol i cant tell you guys how stressfull this experiance has been haha .. i keep hearing how difficult it can be to be a first time grower letalone been tossed in the situation i have found my self.. i know for a fact if it wasnt for this site and people willing to share there knowledge they would be dead so again thanks much!!!!

ok heres the pics of 4 plants to give a good view of the ovreall condition of the group..

to answer every ones qustions about lights, he told me he uses cfl, 23 watt 1600 lumens each 6500k to veg and it wasnt worth the time to go grab all his i just went to homedepot and got a bunch, it only cost me $ 40 to set up 10 of them.. i have them set up in pairs if you guys thimk i need more i can go grab some..

Comparing these pics with the first pics i see a change and its for the better! So dont change nothing just let the
Soil dry out to the point its not crisp but still moist then water with just ph corrected water, no nutes.
Also the real dead looking leaf you should remove, this will help you judge there progress

thanks for having a look, ok so triming all the dead foliage is easy enough, now ph adjusted water?? if i use distiled water is it safe to assume its ph is in the range that is ok for the plants?

I use distilled water with any phing all the time.

Those party cups have holes in the bottom right?

yeah, well four slits an inch tall, allso i exposed the top part of the cloning cubes to diasapate any excess water,
i have allso installed 6 more cfl lights, 900 lumens each but in the 2700k range, im sure i read some olace its good to have a blend of both 2700k and 6500k when using cfl?

I just like using 6500k

ahh ok so how many should i be ussing for 80 plants?

Mr>Newb, welcome to RIU.

First off those are clones, they look that way because of the process. They are eating themselves until they root. All the pic look O.K. to me so mellow out your doing fine.

With what you have done I would let the little girls sit under a 6500K light with a light breeze until they dry out. A wet/dry cycle is best. I see new growth so it is O.K. to clean them up. Leave as much green as you cab but get rid of any damage. Those cups aren't the greatest either but they will do for now.

Once they dry out you can give them 1/4 strength nutrients. Ph range should be 6.0-6.9 and your ppm should be around 400.

Good Luck

the problem is the guy im doing this for has cancer and wont be out of the hospital for at least 3 mths, they actualy induced a coma so as of yester i have no idea when i can speak to him, his goal is to plant them out door.. he grows his whole years stash every year this way, and i really dont want to fuck this up for him.. assuming he gets well enough to return home..

ok ph i understand, when you refer to parts per million.. ppm of what? like mineral content of the water? guys im so newb im a 13yr old boy seen tits for the first time... lol
thanks for the pantience

God i hope he gets better! And im sure you will do good by him and his clones, as far as lighting goes
As long as they have some light to feed on till they are fully rooted up your good, but if you start seeing a good amout of new growth then your going to need to step it up a bit
