Try get a dome over them or increase the humidity in the room. Might get lucky.

I’m new enough at it but I had 100% success with that last few clone runs. I take off whatever cuts I need and put them into water. This is suppose to stops air bubbles inside the stem. After I have all the clones in water I cut 45-degree angle and then put them into a glass with rooting hormone. After they soak in the gel for a while I put them into the cloner with a light mix of grow nutrients. I used AN micro grow bloom at 1ml per litre. Stick the dome on them but leave the vent open. I spray the dome lid with water, not the clones themselves otherwise they get black rot. I put the cloner under a 24w 65k CFL on 24hrs. After a week to 10 days they should all be rooted then I put the cloner under a 300w 65k CFL until I transplant to pots. Use the Great white while transplanting and the roots will explode.
yeah i had a dome over them but humidity wasnt fully up there soi dunno. i sprayed the whole dome and tent to try bring it up. but i think they might be fucked hah. ah ill get the hang of it yet i have to lol

It can take a couple weeks for them to root, give them a chance, then give them another chance or two. I have 80% success with just a propagator and aloe vera as hormone.

Yep, id spray the clones and dome, in the morning and evening, and start checking for roots after about 10 days. Ive heard of people digging a cutting from the bin after a few days and making that work, they want to live!

If you can plan ahead, trim much of the leaves so there's less foliage for clone to support until it gets it's new roots. Next day take your cuttings.

I cut twice... first one to get cutting off plant and asap into water then cut again with the stem underwater which *almost* guarantees no air bubbles in the new clone. If no dome use a bag or something to keep the humidity as high as you can. Mist (drench) the leaves and keep them misted. The clones shouldn't droop with this kind of treatment. Good luck!

Spud I've had clones look dead really droopy they came back my advice would be aero cloner easiest and fastest and u don't have to keep checking them and spraying them and worrying if there media to dry or to damp I paid 100 for cloner and lights best money I've spent for the results I'm getting with it
Peace

Spud the first time I took 4 cuttings, thought I lost them all so put them outside in the greenhouse, few days later I went out to throw them out and 2 had roots, and a third one followed. Then I took cuttings from those 3 after about 2 weeks in flower, 18 in total, 15 rooted, 12 reveged, and 9 ended up being worth keeping. Buy a cheap propogator to keep in your veg tent, but if your tent is on the ground put something under the prop to insulate it, better chance of survival if base is kept warm.

Just my 2 cents,,, if you clones wilt up bad and start to scare ya,,,and you don't have a dome,,, you can blow up a clear plastic bag around each clone and tie it off.. First, spray with some tap water........

Like said I don't do alot reading, and reading a piece here and there can be dangerous. I saw someone talking about cut and they were domeless...... My bad.. Myself I use one of the 24 trubokloner unit. It came with a dome too.. But doing the aeroponics on clones you, as a rule, don't need a dome.. Not that I don't have a setup for doing clones in root riots or other 'plugs' But is cool if some is wanting to take a clone and don't have a setup,, a clear plastic bag blown up around your cut with keep the R?H up there. Thanks about the Pup.. I been doing her 5-6 years now. And she is as stoney as she looks... I'm just fixing to pop a Grassfire OG seed.. My friend gifted me acouple and he did crazy good with his.. Some of the largest 'rails' I ever seen on his leafage.......

Merry Christmas and Keepem Green

the clones never took. i think the humidity just wasnt high enough i think its because of the small sized tent. ive ordered an xtreme 12 site cloner so hopefully ill have more luck with that
