This is what they looked like earlier, the two that have slumped over have been thrown out.......

The 4 that were good have been recut, redipped in clonex, and placed in rapid rooter plugs. The room the clone tray was in was hot, figure thats what killed them the temps were to much for the dome. ALSO noticed the rockwool was holding alot of water from the humidity, the rockwool was soaked with water and I think thats what also helped the stems rot out. The rapid rooter plugs hold them alot better and doesnt hold as much moisture...

That hole in the middle of the rapid rooter is to put the cuttings in. then you rip a small chunk off the side or the rr and stuff that in the hole also making a snug fit for the cutting.

Id also give them 3 weeks to root before worrying.

Here are the same clones 18 days later:

The two funny looking ones in the front-right (second picture) are males that are still producing nutsacks although one of them has actually started to grow it's leaves too.

The two in the back left are a different strain from the others that is known to root more slowly.

Note that the second picture was taken with the tray rotated 180 compared to the first.

These cuts were taken two weeks into flower.

Ph your water to 6.0 soak your cubes for 24 hours and take decent cuts 45deg angle straight to water if your making multiple cuts of the same plant then transfer to your jell i like to let them set in the jell for about 10 min by i put them in my cubes. i dont get 100% but real close takes about 10 days for full roots
