well my clones are now 5 days old there has been abit of growth on the clone it self but there is still no roots it has 60% humidity and 20-25 degrees in heat. there planted in jiff pelets and used rooting hormone.
you dont NEED 90-95% humidity, and 60% isnt way to low, plenty of people on here take cuttings, drop em right in water bottles and throw them in there grow room.Your humidity is way too low for cloning... go 90-95%-ish.. I will assume you mean Celsius with that temp, 20C is too low for cloning... keeping it 23-25C is about right.
I won't retract my statement, but I will say that if it works for you.. that's great - Jorge's guidance generally doesn't lead people wrong, however.. and he highly recommends 90-95%.you dont NEED 90-95% humidity, and 60% isnt way to low, plenty of people on here take cuttings, drop em right in water bottles and throw them in there grow room.
Although I definitely don't agree that a 90-95% humidity is necessary for cloning as I have almost always had successful cloning from 50-70%, I do agree that 20C is definitely a bit low for cloning I'd actually say 25-28 is more around the appropriate temp depending on the strain. Low temps can cause slow root development.Your humidity is way too low for cloning... go 90-95%-ish..

Humidity may work better for some strains than others, I agree completely.. same with the ability for a plant to repair itself/recover from the one cloning and not being fast enough or skipping a step and causing air embolism.. 90-95% w/heat pad seems to spur growth of the roots more compared to other humidity values I've seen in various strains - is why I mentioned it. Mileage may vary, as always.Although I definitely don't agree that a 90-95% humidity is necessary for cloning as I have almost always had successful cloning from 50-70%, I do agree that 20C is definitely a bit low for cloning I'd actually say 23-28 is more around the appropriate temp depending on the strain.
