Thanks! I did go ahead and tape shut the strips I left open, last night - it just wasn't retaining moisture the way I wanted it to. Not like the lid is airtight anyway. That did the trick, checked them this morning and viola - happy, humid clones! They are perkier even then they were last night, I'm thinkin that has to be a good thing, yes? My hubby is hovering around them like a mother - rooster ? lol You would think they were his babies instead of mine!

Glad you taped it up... It will work a treat... They love the greenhouse effect... Well done...

Clones recover from droopiness in about a day with or without a dome. Glad to see you took the leap and made some clones up. Now that they have recovered from the initial droop, as long as they stay warm and moist, not wet, in the rootzone (dome is optional) they should have roots in about 10 days or so. Good luck!
I always just kept it "moist" in there. Not so much where water is dripping, but just condensing on the dome. When I do aero-cloning, I will only spray for the first few days. Not sure if it's the same in soil.

Nope never heard of a mother Rooster ...Mother Goose however is another tale...lol
Hey Doe,
Just thought I would mention something, cuttings will look fine for weeks but not root if they dont get air to the roots. Its like cutting a flower and sticking it in water. I usually water every other day.
What you want to see it the leaf getting yellow, that tells you the plant is taking the stored nutrients and making roots. Keep root temps between 70 and 85° dont go over 85° or they die. I mist them the first couple days then ween them off the dome.

You do what you think your plants needs... I love to mist them and cover them, as I like to foliar feed with Rhizotonic during the cloning, but that's the only reason... I find I get explosive root growth.. Its the one product I constantly rave over. I also mist the dome as it creates my 100% humidity that I like, but remember its what you like, there really is no right or wrong, just dont over or underwater...

Alright, for some reason, I've been thinking these guys were a week further on all week. Wondered why the buds weren't bigger. lol Anywho!
Here we are, at the end of six weeks. The Lemon Skunk look none the worse for having bits of them cut off (kinda made me feel like a child molester, lol) - especially the bushiest monster, who I took five of the ten clones from! I'm really impressed with this strain - they are the biggest, after six weeks, of any strain I've grown thus far.
The older girls have packed on weight this week, and now I've realized they are only six weeks along (duh), I'm much happier with the size. Trich production is amazing at this point - the widow's and rhino's are starting to get that "white" appearance. The Sour Cream, that tall lanky bitch, still looks as if she has a long way to go. I'm really debating, how much I wanna run a light for a single plant, if all the rest mature well before her. May wind up harvesting her early.
I checked out the trichs under the scope last night, most of the them are cloudy now - probably about 90%. Thinkin the White Rhino may be first to finish, we'll see. Based on overall appearance though, along with the trichs, I think they'll all (except the SC) be finished by eight weeks.
I got some before light's on pics, and some "yellow" closeups. Enjoy!

Yea, I thought so. I was at Seed Botigue last night and looking for some. Seems they are sold out cause it isnt even listed anymore. I picked up there White Rhino and Dutch passions Blueberry figured I would toss in Nirvanas Master Kush. It was cheap. yea, all fem.
That should hold me for a while.

Sounds like a grow! I've heard the stories about the Blueberry, tending towards hermie and not a huge yielder - but I still wanna try it one of these days. Heard it does better topped, though. I've got the GHS rhino in there now - got a nice sweet, fruity fragrance to 'em.
