Limp clones

Day 7 sour d clones in root riot cubes took the humidity dome off to mist and pour in some cloneX solution w/pH 5.60 water. Within 10 min of leaving the dome off some plants went limp only a handful have visible roots... I am not using a warming matt because with the light and room temp around 83 didn't think I needed it. Do y'all think they will bounce back? Using the HLG v100 led quantum board 100w light

Yes they will you can't take them out of the humidity for long and if you do they have to be acclimated slowly...to "harden" up

I once took a clone i had sitting in water bottle all day and it went limp put it in the dome came back to life...they like it humid...and you don't need a heating mat but it speeds the process up alot...you could use that light at half power too they are delicate...treat them like a new born they throw a fit over nothing

Light is about 24 inches from the top of the dome and I don't have the capabilities of dimming that light so should I raise it up more?

Alternate dome on and off until they stop wilting when theres no dome.
Once they stop wilting...plant them.
Light should be fine or they prob would already be telling you they don't like it.
Best of luck and happy growin' :P

Yea I was going to say if they start crying and you don't know why raise the light lol or put them off to the side so it's not direct light...your plants will speak to you man they let you know

Raise the light. They don't want much. I have 2 of the 100's.

It's better to let them adjust to lower humidity slower, but they should come back fast if you keep the Root Riots moist. I haven't been using domes lately and my humidity is usually around 10%. It is tougher to clone like that, but I also just start in soil anymore.

I have used the Root Riots and dome and had awesome success, but I don't like cleaning the stuff after, lol. Also the Root Riots don't quite break down like they say.

So far day 7 they are still deep green and looked fresh granted I was misting them with organic kelp.
