My clones are 4 days old and today i found them all wilted, leaves have collapsed and some clones have fallen over. Does this usually happen? Will they recover? I am using peat pellets with flor lights and they are in domes. The temp is 75-80, the pellets were still slightly damp but i added water to them hoping this might help? Any advise will sure be appreciated!:confused:

What kind of rooting formula did you use? You wana make sure you have alot of light on the clones. The clones need to heal real fast from the cut & they need alot of light to have a strong healthy photosynthesis process going so they can have enough energy to recover from the cutting & so they can produce roots to start growing.

No they dont usually wilt and fall over! Mine stay stiff and really dont change appearance.

While some wilting is normal till they get a root system started collapsing certainly isn't normal. I doubt those plants live. I've also noticed a few people having problems using domes because it keeps the humidity too high, which has the same effect as overwatering. Did they have roots before you put them in the peat pellets ? I still like the normal water and airstone method to get clones started rooting, not that your method is wrong, I just don't prefer it.
