I'm working with feminized seeds for the first time and I'm also having a hard time rooting their cuts.
I wonder if it's a feminized thing....
Somtimes even 1 pheno out of the same pack of seeds can be harder to clone than another.
Get them domes off and let them breath
get your self a salad spinner, cheap, you will be surprised how much excess comes out, squeezing the cubes fucks the porosity of said cube, flinging the water works, but after 8o clones you arm falls of. tap water, no roots no eat. use a syringe to feed water when down, even pick each one up and water lightly from bottom, roots will come alooking.I found after half an hour of soaking em before i place the cut into the cube that 5-6 real good shakes gets alot of water out and there pretty light again
sorry mate ,only used tap water straight out of tap, chemicals in water keep pathegens away, everybody plays this game different, but I have success this way. temp and humidity has to be right, I have killed a fewAre you saying don't use tap water? Not sure what you meant by that, my bad.
A part of me says keep it simple and use straight tap with no pH'ing then another side says pH to 5.5 and use RO water since I'm using rockwool.
Nobody seems to know the answer to this and is more behind their preference rather than what is right/wrong. Hmmm.

Most water out of the tap is pH buffered to around 7
Funny thing is I made a cloner just like this, just have yet to buy a pump for it. I thought RW would be easier but it's the very opposite! LOL
I'll be grabbing a pump today and saying fuck it to the RW. A few quick questions on your cloner though:
what's your water consist of? (any additives? RO or tap?)
how many GPH is your pump?
Are you using just air stones in your tub? I constructed a pvc device with 25 360 misters in it to spray water up at the roots. Do I even need this? Or can I just sink my clones right into the top of the water?
