Cloning: One of mine has rooted! Now what?

Hey RIU,
Hopefully this is in the right part of the forum but one of my clones has rooted and it's in a small rockwool cube. Can I transplant the clone into soil with the rockwool?

Sorry if its a stupid question but I've got no cloning experience whatsoever...i'm happy enough that one of them rooted!

Not a stupid question at all and yes you want to just plant the entire cube and maybe even a bit of the stem if its tall and thin. Not too close at first but get the light on them now and start blowing a fan near enough to move it a bit so it grows a nice strong stem

yeah make sure u cover that cube..if it gets too much light it will mold and switch light to 18/6

Thanks a lot man for the informative post. Appreciate all the info! +rep

Another question - Can I start feeding nutes or is fresh Fox Farm OF enough for now?

Edit: BTW here's some photos. Is the yellowing on the leaves normal? Deficiency of somesort?

Why are you posting newbie questions if this is the "Advanced" section??

Maybe you forgot to read my first post...and since nobody ever said anything I didn't think much of it. Is it really that big a fucking deal?

Yeah this should really be in General Growing or something similar.

The yellowing leaves indicate that the cut is growing and is using it's available resources (N stored in leaves) to sustain itself.

Plant it into soil burying the stem a bit and don't feed any nutes for another week or until it's rooted more. I only see a taproot...

Then start the ol' FF regimine. Grow Big and Big Bloom.
