Am currently working on a batch of clones... Not my first attempt but definitely my cheepest. I dont know why but my first 2 out of the tray wilted and are trying to go crispy.
Am wondering how that happened an how to fix it... Anyone have an idea?

looks like the soil is much to wet. is that white container the pots are in filled with runoff? let the medium go almost completely dry before you water again and they should bounce back

So far they keep going downhill.... Will allow them to keep going in hopes that they will come back but at this point i think its time to make a fresh batch..... Whats the chances of this happening because of my over heating issue in the cloner tray? Would like to avoid any further issues.... Nvr had a problem with this part before...

Cut off the shade leafs. They are ruined at this point, and sapping energy from any new leafs, plus, heir dead weight is pulling on the main stem

Due to excessive watering you probably have root rot

Nothing to lose by trying to save them, but probably need to start fresh ones

IMHO, it's best to root clones in a simple DIY bubbler. Search my threads for how to

Put a humidity dome on them, will keep them from wilting. Mine do this sometimes when the roots just havnt gotten big and strong enough to start sucking water out of the dirt yet. I put them back under my dome in the solo cups and they spring back. I'll test them for a few minutes out of the dome daily till I know they can handle being without it. They love the humidity when they are wee little
