clones drooping and curling up.....

after my clones show roots there standing up at full attention but once i pot them the either curl up and dry out or droop down.i never have a problem rooting just once i stop using dome this is what happens,any thoughts?

That is odd... you say you have roots and then the clones just croak when you plant them? I always get a bit of yellowing and a bit of curling up on the primary clone leaves (but I sometimes have heat issues).

Anyway, some pics might help with the diagnosis. Failing that, do what I do and ask Skunkushybrid or one of the other mods.

are you watering them right after planting? usually i plant my rooted rockwool cubes in cups then ill lightly spray the soil around the rockwool - usually ill try to wait until the next day so the roots have a day to move into the soil. ive had 1 or 2 droop down but they bounced back after i gave them a tiny bit of water. also, whats the temperature? clones are pretty fragile, it doesnt take much to stress them.

thanks for the input plasma,and it is the primary leaves,the new sprouting leaves seem to look fine just not growing out at this time.thanks again,ill try pics in awhile..........ras

i am watering them lightly around thre rockwool and soil,there under an 400w hps but about 28 inches away,i put thm under flourecents and still.i feel the'll bounce back but just woundering why u know what i mean?also im gonna start taking larger cuttings,i think this might help eliminate this prob couse they were somewhat small cuttings.thank chronicle!

now that you mention that your cuttings were small, i remembered that sometimes when i take small cuttings (3 nodes or so), they droop a lil at first - atleast some of them. infact i have about 3 clones that are really small anjd were drooping earlier today. its always good to take nice and big cuttings, the big ones dont get as stressed as easy.

yeah,thats what im thinking where i went wrong and trying to put a rush on cloning.If these make it good,but im gonna just push the date a lil bit further ahead for flower.i had to actually put it out here to find my fault!,lol....thanks man......peace,ras
