Got this clone on Friday from the local shop and has been looking rough hours after I put her in my tent. I’ve had a dome over her the majority of the time as there aren’t any roots coming through the rock wool. Temps around 70, RH 40%. Light is turned up to about 1/3 of full power
With scissors, remove about 1/2 of the mature leaves and leave the smaller ones alone. Until roots develop, plant will uptake water through leaves but not enough for capillary action to ‘inflate’ the leaves. Keep the dome on, temps around 80F and run your lights 24/0. It’s very common for clones to look pretty bad before bouncing back.
Looking better after doming for almost 2 weeks. Dome has been off all day today and she’s holding her own. I did get the temps and RH up as well in the tent
This one on the other hand is not. Friday will make 4 weeks since I got her from a local shop. There still aren’t any roots growing out of the rockwool and if I leave her undomed for more than a few hours she starts to look worse.
Here is the thing with clones. Unless she stops growth totally they can recover and bush. I have had 1 green leaf turn into big plants. Patience. Keep environment right. If it totally dies then move on but clones can be very very slow at times. If at least 1 clone makes it then grab more when she is big enough.
