Transplanting Clones

Im transplanting clones for the 1st time, I read a ton but does anyone have any tips, advice? Im going into coco. 6 Skywalker & 6 Louie 13

ZS,
Just make sure that the coco is prepared properly. Hard to change anything once the plant is in place. Nice job on the clones...they look healthy.

I don't think you need any advice. You're doing an awesome job. kiss-ass

hahahha thanks! Sadly enough I didnt clone them. Im lucky to have friends that do this stuff but arent always available. I think I have it under control though. Im preparing the coco tonight. thanks

Nice looking babies.

Welcome to RIU.

Nice looking plants, but don't wait so long next time to transplant. As soon as the roots emerge, then move them. Better for the plant. Peace

Water then with 5.8 ph with slight nutes. Coco has no nutes so the plant relies on u feeding it every day

should I flush the coco with nutes or just transplant and water with nutes

transplant and water with nutes.

Make sure you ph it.... That is very essential..

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]I transplanted last night. Everything went well. I cant seem to keep the humidity up in there though. I have a humidifier in there too. Still stuck around 30% My outtake fan might be too strong? CFM 240. I got a fan speed controller for the fan but it didnt work with the fan very well. Im thinking it was more the cheap fan then it was the controller. My friend suggested I hook up a humidistat to the outtake fan. Right now I dont have the oscillating fan going cause its not too hot and its probably taking the humidity down by pushing the inside air to the outake fan. [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Should I mist the plants down? They went from 70-75% humidity in the dome to 30% in the tent. I for sure thought it would have raised overnight with the humidifier going.

Humidity isn't a issue for me. I'm at 15% and I'm vegging. No humidifier or anything....I don't see harm to the plants so I leave it

They only need high humidity/a dome when they are fresh, unrooted cuttings. As they continue to transpire (loose water from their pores/stomata), but they have no root system with which to take in adequate water and maintain their turgor, or the water pressure inside their cells which keeps them rigid and the plant erect.

Once they start to form nodules and roots, they don't require high humidity. Typically you can start fresh air exchanges with fresh cuttings after a few days, until the vents are fully open or dome off by 7-10 days.

Right now I have it stabilized at 63% humidity - 82 degrees for the past 4 hours. The temp will probably go down a few degrees tonight.
I have the exhaust fan turned off and the oscillating fan circulating air inside.

When I turn on the exhaust fan it lowers the temp about 4 - 6 degrees but drops the humidity to 30%. Alot of things Im reading is saying 60% humidity is ideal for this stage for the plants. My question now is, is it bad I have the exhaust fan off? I might need to get 4" fan with a lower rate so its not so intense. It creates a huge vacuum in the tent.

Would it be better to have the exhaust fan on and less humidity and a few degrees lower (78 degrees - 30% humidity), or it off and oscillating fan on and higher humidity (82 degrees - 60% humidity).
