I took clones 2 weeks ago and they havnt grown since. They are under 125W enviro, about 8 inches away. I used cloning gel in rockwool cubes. They have always had a little water in the dish so they were always pretty much soaked.
By now i still can not see roots or growth. On one clone the bottom leaves are turning white but dont seem to be dying. Any advice?

no nutes, i know your supposed to cut at angle but i dont know if i did it. This is how theyve looked the whole time, so at leat they arent really getting worse, well the color thing isnt good.

Should i plant them in soil, maybe the roots, if any, need air and less water to spread out.

the constant water might be rotting the bottom of it preventing roots...

i'd take one out and check it... if the bottom looks brown, thats no good... recut at an angle above it, then re plug into the rockwool

soak your rockwool cubes, then gently shake some excess water off... there shouldn't be any pooling... and just keep misting to keep moist...

hope that might help
