Will these clones take?

this is my first grow in a longtime and my first indoor grow ever, so while I did put tons of effort into researching, there have been oversights…originally up until yesterday I planned on doing a 4 site DWC, thank god I stumbled across some poor bastard who lost everything cause he didn’t account for reservoir temp when the season changed. I realized that I like him, can’t and shouldn’t afford 4 separate chillers, I don’t want to convert to RDWC, and I’d still need to spend more than I want to on a chiller anyway. So I’m pivoting to coco in 5 gallon pots I think, researching that now. Any tips on how to take aeroponic clones into a 70/30 coco mix? And also how much of that mix will I need for 4 5 gallon pots?

Just gently transfer them into the new media. The roots will naturally grab right away after the first watering. And rather fast. Just be sensitive while dealing with the exposed roots

Ok so I wasn’t really watching my PH I checked it on the way into the cloner, and it was good…I just checked it on a whim today and it was 7.7. Yikes! So I ph downed to 5.8, but it was most likely up there for a couple days…how bad is that? They still look alive, no roots yet though

It is only bad cause you keep changing things slowing rooting

Last question…should I foliar feed the clones? Or just let them rock out in the aero cloner as is and pretend they aren’t there

Nothing will make your clones root faster than leaving them the fuck alone. Seriously, if they aren’t wilted and extremely sad looking by now do not touch them, don’t lift the lid up, don’t foliar, etc. The less variables the better. Leave them alone and wait till Saturday or Sunday to lift the lid and check them.

Your already far past the level of complications. Can you cook a steak? Do you keep flipping it or let it set? Don’t touch it. Clip dip and sit. Iv even just cooper cuts and stabbed directly into rockwool with nothing done to treat. Just leave it all alone.

exactly what I do.
First 3 days 80-90% humidity
Next 2 days 70-80%
Next 2days 60-70% and remove dome for 15-20min. Place back on.
next 2. By that last day. I’m able to completely remove domes and allow them to harden. Roots pop out of rockwool around this time. Then when I place em in my media.I adjust ph to the according media. Coco, soil, peat etc…. But that first 8-10 days. I don’t bother AT ALL. I hope that helps
