Newbie. Looking for any tips!

"Been 8 days no roots. Have in warm area dome off misting 2x a day and watering so rockwool is not ry."
--- I would recommend stop misting.
In fact, I never mist the cuttings directly. I only ever mist the dome when replacing it to revive a clone that wilts after dome removal.

I see cloning as a time to train the clones to try to drink water up their stem.

I use soil, not rockwool, but I just put them straight into wet soil, and dome them for 4 days. Done.
Your medium drying out is the enemy, but ya - only letting liquid water touch the medium (and the stem) is best, I think.

Very weak light is my other secret weapon to cloning.
Weak light, and giving leaves humidity only, never directly liquid water.

Cfl lights are not more efficient than hid lighting and they are actually one of the most inefficient grow lights there is. Any claim on the box otherwise is a marketing lie

Very true the more light the more Photosynthesis which means higher amounts of resperation. Cuttings cant pull in enough with no roots to keep up with the resperation.

Just as a cultural lingo thing - the growing community dismisses that 'equivalent' of incandescant rating.
We try to speak in the actual wattage - they are probably about 20w, and it should say on the box too

about lighting it's not about how bright it is. What you need to pay attention to is PAR energy. That the measurement of usable light by the plant for photosynthesis. Watts is an electrical term. Not a plant term ect!

IME anyone with experience would have ditched fox farms years ago. Go with Pro mix bx and whatever line of nutrients you prefer or if you want organic go with Coast of Maine Platinum mix and just add water the entire grow. That's real advice!
