My clones have been in a soiless mix for about 2 weeks, they look like they are suffering from nutrient disorders (yellowing leaves, red stems) All I do is mist them haven't given them any nutrients. I haven't watered the soil either as it stays very moist in there. What should I do?

well you have to be more descriptive. have they rooted yet? Was it 2 weeks from cut?

And clones will turn yellow and have violet stems for a lil untill they gain a good amount of roots..

promotes faster root growth any way
pluss he would have a better success rate if he used root hormone

One possibility is that you should put some sort of plastic covering over it. Before the clones are rooted they absorb water through their leaves. So if you spray them and then the water is evaporated by the light the plant wont get it. Put a plastic covering over the top and mist the plant and the inside of the covering and place it on. Hopefully this will help!

So no nutrients then?, I used a powdered rooting hormone, I heard gel was better but whatever, I'm also told you don't need anything at all it just makes rooting faster. There is no evidence of roots at this time. I do have the plastic cover for humidity as well as the heating pad for the tray. The only thin I could possebly think of is this: I put like six plants on a 12/12 shcedule to weed out the males (only one female unfortunately). After that I put the plant back on an 18/6 schedule and waited a couple weeks. Also the cuts I made were 3 nodes down as opposed to four as I gathered from Mr Cervantes.

make sure that after you cut your clone from the plant that you take a razorblade and make a nice clean angled slice at the tip of the cut and keep the baby covered and humid. you should have root in 3-5 days.
