So I have 25 clones that don't look good and I just cannot diagnose the problem. They look better in the pic in my gallery, but since butting the rockwool cubes in organic soil, I have put them under 5 54w T5lights at about 6 inches away and they are drying up and turning to the soil like they are dying. I watered when I transplanted them and I watered again this morning...some of them had dry soil. What else can I do? PLEASE help!

when you ask for help, you need to post some pics so we have something to go by. what is the root system like? maybe you can put them back under a humidity dome. going by the 1 pic in your gallery, i say you have too much leaf. cut off the larger fan leaves and mist often.

i just read your otheer thread about how you were asking how cold is too cold. it would seem that that cold is to cold, eh? if you have temp issues and you can't get a space heater in there, i suggest you leave the lights on 24/7.

Fair enough. I will get the camera ready. The problem is... they have the worst time under the light. The heat was about 80F I'd say before turning off the lights. It dips to as low as 65F. I know that is too much variance. Would 24/7 be good for growth?

Also, how often should I mist them?

Have your clones developed roots before you put them in the soil. Clones have to live under a dome fro the first 24 hours. Were the clones in rockwoolÉ if they were, and you had good roots formed before you planted you need to think n see if you placed them in the ground that was too dry, and if it was a ground that was a bit wet but the rockwool was dry sometimes the wet ground sucks up all the moisture from the rockwool. Hmm wierd that they would die just like that. Roots man, roots!

hey so check it out its my first time to clone, so i dont really know what im doing but ya know i gathered all the knowledge i could, long branches, from the bottom of my mothers (only 8wks) all the leaves cut off except a left the smallest ones at the top, cut them under water, used rooting hormone, theyve been under plastic wrap with 8 clfs over them and a floro tube, and a heating pad underneath, that only stays on for like an hour then shuts off and i keep that on low whenever i go in there i just turn it back on, ive been spraying wtih regular water at least twice daily, they look horrible, plastics been on for like 3 days now, like i said i dont really know what im doing but im trying! check out pics, i got some of the mothers too

Well if you are in a forum for marijuana growing, that means you appreciate marijuana. It has nothing to do with being a pothead. By pothead I mean when a person doesn't function normally because they are using so much that they are just worthless. Is that you? No one else likes working with potheads, either. Nothing gets done. Some people blaze and work better. I wouldn't call them potheads. What comedian was it that said we should legalize weed but criminalize pot heads? It was a funny skit and if you look it up it pretty much hits the point on the head.

i agree. i took a joint to work one day and was outside working smoking my j before i started as my usual morning routine goes. a co-worker that was just hired came outside and asked for a toke, so generous guy i am, i told him he could smoke with me..... BIG MISTAKE. the guy is BLITZED out of his mind before we were halfway done with a joint. He was so obviously fucked up,useless and incoherant, I sent him home for the day.
im only the frontline cashier at hardees..... he was so fucked up he didnt realize one of the other CREW members had told him to go home and not a manager.:mrgreen:

my manager asked me the next morning why i sent someone home......
...and why they listened.:mrgreen:

Hahaha good story. Yea pot heads annoy everyone who isn't high and most who are. If legalization meant mandatory smoking, you wouldn't have any support for it whatsoever.

look i consider myself a pothead, i love smoking pot, but i do stage production, putting together stages for concerts, audio, video, all that crap, so i gotta be sharp at work or lose a finger, so i just dont smoke b4 work, just cause ur a pothead doesnt mean your worthless, it just means you smoke a lot of pot, an alcoholic isnt nessissarily someone who cant function on alcohol, just saying, worthless people are worthless with or without pot!

nothing wrong with getting ripped out of your mind so hard that your body is numb and your laughing at the fact that you were able to light your lighter to take another hit. I believe the term pothead would be used in someone who would smoke a 6ft tall male down to the soil just to get high. about your clones that really looks like a phosphorus or magnesium problem.get some chromium picolinate tablets and grind them up then sprinkle about a 3rd tsp around the base and put a plastic humidity dome around the plants and they should be just fine. The leaves that are yellow now will stay yellow and most likely die but there will be new growth and it might be yellow at first but will turn light green to dark green within a day or 2. I am relating this to a simular problem I had with clones in a small drip system so it might work for you as well.
