Clones Wilting?

My clones are wilting badly. Have I over watered? This is after seven days from cutting. That looked better a couple of days ago.

do you have them in a humidity dome?

Do not as I have not had this problem before. But it sounds like you recommend it.

well, I don't have one either, but I just put a pastic sandwich bag over the top of them as I start all my plants off in 16oz cups, and just spray some water in the bag and put it over top of the plant and use an elastic band to keep the bottom of the bag closed so the humidity don't escape and take it off for a couple mins. a day to let her get some fresh air and breath and put it back on, just seems like from my experiance this is the best and cheapest way for me to clone. I do the for 2 weeks and by then if they don't have roots, figure they're not going to so I toss them.
To answer your question, I think it's cause you don't have enough humidity, they love it around 80%

You needa dome for cloning, too hard otherwise.

Is the primary reason for this to hold in humidity?

Yup you got it, they need lots of humidity, and also clip the tips of the leafs on all the leafs, except for the most recent top ones, this promotes more energy going to root production, instead to the foilage.

hope this helps

I've heard of people clipping the leaves but not at this early stage. Doesn't stress them huh? I have heard of people clipping the ends of all the leave tips during veg however (I've never done it)

nope just the bottem ones, not the newest ones, just the tips not half the fingers or anything. This is the ONLY!!!! time (can't stress this enough) that you clip your leafs. You want as many leafs as possible, nice big healthy green leafs. They collect the light like a solar pannel and they store the energy and use it when the lights go out for photosynthisis, which inturn makes the plant grow. NEVER CUT OFF FAN LEAFS, unless they are 3/4 dead then the plant is using too much energy on that leaf to keep it alive when you can use that energy else where. Also if you feel that they are in the way or are really shading the buds, don't cut, use a twist tye and move them outta the way.
Hope this helps

What about watering then as there is probably alot of moisture in the bag?

Well what I do.........is, when I take the bag off for about 5-10 mins a day I spray the inside of the bags just before I put them back on them. I also check to see if the soil is dry and if it is, then I set the cup in a tuberwear dish with a few cups of water and let the plant and the soil soak it up from the bottem, this will help the roots want to strech out and seek the water. When the cup feels heavy, and a good amount of water is gone, I take it outta the dish and place back in veg.

For all this info I think I deserve a rep for all this writing.........lol

Great info and your right you've spent a lot of time this morning writing. Much appreciated!
