So I'm using the most basic setup... Rockwool cubes water and humidity try/dome. I took the cuts about 7 days ago now, they're all mostly still looking pretty good, but I don't think they've rooted yet, or have just barely started. My cubes are getting a bit dry though and I'm wondering if there's a way I can get them wet again without messing up the clone itself. I've already lost 4 from drying out.

Put a SMALL amount of water in a shallow dish and let the cube leach the water up into itself...g/l

keep cubes damp, and mist every day, keep humidity dome/ propagator in a dimly lit corner and keep temps in the mid 70,s some they usually root in 10-14 days. Walters method above works as well, using capiliary action to keep the cube damp, good luck

I mist mines every day, based on a cloning thread I read in here maybe 5 years ago, seems to work, about 75% of my clones root, but theres always the occasional onw which just dosnt take

fill tote with water and attach axle to hour hand on clock. Friends will think you're a genius now

I personally am not a fan of misting unless necessary...it slows the root development due to the intake of water through the foliar feeding...FYI I use a DIY bubble cloner with no humidity dome

I just built one myself! After you have some roots showing, what do you transplant into? I'm planning on transplanting them into soil

For me rooted clones go into solo cups, then 2 gallon pots and finally 5 gallon fabric pots...about a 6-8 week process...g/l
