need to leave my fresh clones for a couple days

[crftymofo]

I need to leave for the weekend and I have some unrooted clones in oasis cubes. I have them in a humidity dome, and they need to be sprayed multiple times a day. I don't really have cash to buy anything, and as they have been in the cubes for some time I can't build a simple aerocloner and transplant again. Anyone have any ideas?

ween them off the humidity dome before you leave. better yet, dont use a humidity dome at all when you do cuttings

Like Krunchbubble says....

Carefully Get Em' off the Humidity Life Support System.... And they will be fine...

In the future, You might want want to consider using that Aero... I makes cloning easier than tying your shoe.... Okay not that easy.... But it would sustain your clones for days if needed

do you really think they can go 3 days?

3 days without spraying or humidity dome? oh yes! when i cut my clones, i cut and forget them for 4 days, till the cubes need a little bit more water. ive never sprayed or used a humidity dome and have 100% success rate.

put a cup of water inside of the humidity dome, put an airstone inside of the cup and the tubing up and out one of the vent holes thats cracked (sorta need a vent using this method)

plug in air pump.

voila

constant popping bubbles create humidity inside of the dome.

Thanks for all the input. Tried without the hood and they where droopin in no time. ourcee you got me thinking and I ended up using a mister hooked up to a pump and had it come on a few times a day. worked wonders.

Cloning is Voodoo. What saves me may kill you dead. That said, I clone dome free in RH as low as 15%. I believe the main reason I can is due to keeping cuts short and leaves trimmed. The only water my cuts get are in the bubbler res. If the cuts want water, they know where to find it.

ive left clones for only 32 hours and they had died under a humidity dome this is my experiance and i sprayed the heck out of my plants and dome before i left the plants actually bounced back and rooted but they got some kind of rot or something because all my leaves are turing yellow and bending off and now all my plants are doing this so this must be a mold issue or disease

Alright these are Fing WEEDS! Haven't we all brought them back from dead? I've found the real issue for me with cloning is Rapid Rooter they are 1000% better than Rock Wool. If you want to leave for a few days go ahead and water your tray with enough 5.5ph H2O as necessary for your trip and forget about it.

It is really supposed to be hard for our ladies to die.

Peace,

I am hoping that this is my last time cloning "the old fashion way". Planing on ordering my tissue culture kit soon.
