Hello all

well, i have been having a few problems with my clones

i have a homemade bubbler/DWC setup and it is working fine, just put into use like 5 days ago and no roots yet

using hygrozyme as recommended by local grow store

also have a domed tray that hold rockwool and holds in humidity well, i used to use this setup, well bought it but never really used as i have not had good success with clones

am i supposed to put them under light right after cutting them?

i dip them all in rootech clone get, and then into rockwool that has been soaking for a few hours

i have just been having bad luck and looking for advice and how and when to put them under lights

i have an 8 bulb t5 6500k that i put them on 18/6 and only using 4 bulbs... just not sure what will have best results as all my cloning stuff is new, and i have just put it all to use this week and dont know what to do

thanks

Cut with a razor two nodes down
dip in gel
put in pre preped rock wool 5.8 ph no nutes just a drop per lt superthrive or b1 mix
spray with tap water no ph needed but ya gotta mist them twice a day
keep em under the hood 24hrs light a day
keep the cubes damp not wet
spray with a b1 mix every 3 days
if ya got a heat mat put em on it It helps big time
in two weeks you should have roots
use a razor it does not crush cell walls

i use a razor, didnt chop 2 nodes down... just one actually
i have been misting, but not enough
have a heat mat under the tray, the bubbler/DWC is temp of the room- 68-74*
i have that going 24/7 should i give them a break??
i am using no nutes, just hygrozyme which is supposed to be a root and growth enhancer... at least local grow store told me that

lol yes, that is the name for it i guess, couldnt think of it for a minute

tried doing a lot of searching and dont know toleave them on 24/7 or give them a break at somepoint to catch some air

patience some strains take longer than others to show roots, some take 5 days some take 10, dont forget to use steril razorblades. i personally use a humidity dome till i have decent root structure.
