my cuttings in propagation.

Hello guys,

I wanted to ask what material would be good to cover my propagation dome during the unrooted cutting period? I have a 300W CFL which I was going to hang high up above the dome, or would this be too much light for this stage, even with some material covering the dome?

Thanks in advance guys

love & light

They usually come with a clear plastic lid. They need very little light. Wiht 300W I would put it about 18-24" above at least. May make more sense to get a few normal 32W CFL for it to be safe.

I've used a piece of paper towel. Don't know how much it helped but I could definitely tell a difference. It doesn't leave that dry out out spot in the middle where the light hits. And I agree with above. I would recommend a 60w CFL or two above it, but work with what ya have..they really need very little light
