First time grower looking for guidance

hey everyone. This is my first time doing things outside 100% on my own and would like some input along the way. I have 5 clones in small pots freshly placed outside trying to adapt to the sun. Living in Cali I have a pretty optimum temp but have been bringing them in over night. Fox farm soil mixed with natural and been misting frequently. My baby girls are all wilting but only one plant has started to yellow. Any advice so far?

Post pics and tell us all of your secret.
Like feed schedule, temps, humidity etc.

Leave no stone unturned

I usually start mine in the shade, then minimal sun.
Over about a week they are good to go

Slightly better over night. morning sun from 6-11 has them looking better than yesterday . Only misting waster every few hours 2489FA34-1E7E-4568-BC8C-E3CA6F36F0F9.jpeg

You could pick up 100w cfl 6500k. I get them from home depot. There like 7 bucks for a pack of 4. You can keep the lights on them longer and the soft light won't stress them. I would return them outside once they're perked up again. They look good man but are in a sensitive state. How fresh are the cuttings?

??? Care to explain.
Yes .... Basically if you top a plant....and take that top and set the stem inside a water bottle filled with water ....it will root for you ..... I took all my tops and tried it last year .... Every single top rooted for me. I planted one and it did well .... I grow in green houses. I play around indoors during the off season. I was basically just trying it out after hearing about it. Every top I set into a bottle rooted really nice after about 7 to 10 days. I literally just set the cut in a bottle. The tiny hole on the top of the bottle kept the cut from falling in .... I set the bottles on my patio and they all rooted nicely.


GL ....looks like they'll pull through fine. Remember to harden them off like Charface explained above.

Cool cool I’ll have to test it out sometime soon. Also thanks for the feedback guys. Thinking about these give me high blood pressure and grey hairs till I read something reassuring on here.

Any suggestions as to introducing them to natural light. Like a basic schedule to follow other than morning sun while slowly extending the time exposed?
