help! i think they are dying, DOCTOR!

i cloned my mother plant about 1 week into flower, the clones are all dropy but still green and the leaves are curling up. i used jiffy pucks i was told they worked good. i keep the temp at about 75-85 and humid at like 65-75 can someone help
 
sorry no pics for now but i have been using a dome, 2/ 120 watt hals (up high) the temp and humid are right, i used green light rooting hormone and soaked the jiffy pucks with tap water and a minute amount of vitamin b1. they are not yellow just really dropy

Keep the leaves wet, make sure that the humidity is constant. All you can do is hope they make it, the may or they may not. Its hard to tell. As far as a cloning medium try rockwool cubes or barkplugs next time and use root tone

By "hals" do you mean halogen? If so ditch those, and assuming you are on a budget grab a couple of Compact Flourescent bulbs(CFL). You can have your light source closer without tons of heat, and it's actually a lightsource the plants can use. Halogen bulbs have nearly nothing in their light spectrum the plants can benefit from, and use far too much energy that is mostly wasted in heat in a growing application. To be safe with soaking your pucks in water, use distilled water (89 cents at a grocery store per gallon, or so) . Using tap water at this stage is not ideal.The plant is ok on tap water once rooted and in your soil(assuming you are going soil). Ditch the B1. Use a VERY mild nutrient solution in the water you soak the pucks in. Pictures of your set-up or a description of your grow room would be nice. hope this helpedbongsmilie

happy toking
