Overcrowding Clones

[Kronikal_kiwi]

Hey there everyone.

I tried to search for this but it came back with nothing, so sorry for the stupid question.

I took a whole bunch of clones last night from my Black Domina's. Unfortunately as they were from standard seeds, I had to take ALOT due to the fact that half will end up in the bin.

So my question is...

IS over crowding clones going to be a problem? My temps are 29 degrees C (a little hot bot oh well) and my humidity is an easy 100%

I've got some pics here for ya's

Thanks for any help,

BTW rockwool was soaked for several hours in PH 5.6 water with 4 mils per liter Rhizotonic.

hormonal imbalances can increase with the overlapping, while rooting clones should be spaced out evenly.

Cheers Jaymer.

I can't undo whats been done but I'll make sure in future to space them carefully. Im not used to doing so many clones but a friend wants to do a large scale NFT SOG so he needs heaps!

This is why we imported the BD cause we thought being pure indica it would do well in a tightly packed SOG.

thats gonna be too warm for clones, your would get better success if you could lower your temps slightly...
In my new spot this past summer the temps were very warm, and i got horrible clone success... When the temperatures are kept under control i get 90-100% sucess

I get as crowded cloning , maybe cut big leaf in half like i do , after all it's root's were after , i use weak CFL like 16 watt , to promote root growth .

I clone in little half-solo cups full of coco and I pack up to 12 clones in each cup...I don't have any issues with overcrowding. I've also done up to 10 cup under a single 8w 'lowes' led bulb..worked great also.

mine are growing tall and/or lanky i wish i had of topped a few early on and spread them out (the plants from seed)

NFT SOG, i think sog will make them wanna stretch and you're right the indicas black domina will help with that in a short run.
