you don't need much light at all for cloning, a single 13watt CFL provides enough to root cuts.
...here's a shot of my clone box where i originally had a bulb above the cloners that proved to be too hot, fortunately for me, reflected light from the bulbs down below provide all the light the clones need to root.
peace, SOG
thanks man, when i built it the plan was to passively capture the heat from those lower bulbs to warm the cloners, ...i actually got lucky the reflected light was sufficient because otherwise i'd have had to do a major overhaul, ...that shelf wasn't built to move, lol.
...and yes Seedlin, 138watts is too much, ...the droop on the other hand COULD be normal, i've had that happen too and they almost always recover.
...turn all those lights off but one, ...you're not trying to GROW something, you're trying to ROOT something.
peace, SOG
When I root cuts in a non-hydro way, I'll put the plants in a spot that's warm with room-light only. For about a week.
After that they go under fluoros, MH or HPS, whatever my veg lamp happens to be at the time. 3-4' away for HID lamps, 1.5' for fluoros..... lights move down over the next few days. Not too close... not until they root.
Stay Safe!

Cool so no misting when flowering but not a bad thing to do while in veg..Thanks man. Like I've said before, this is my trial run. Doing this and that to my bag seed plants just to see. I bought some Klonike Gold beans thur a bud just the other day. Anybody ever heard of the strain? Ive got some other beans ordered thru Attitude but there seems to be a problem with my m/o getting to them. Sent a second letter and it made it thru...Hmmm.
No i didn't say not to do it in veg....and I didn't say not to to do it during flower. I'm saying that I don't spray after they've been in bloom for a few weeks. We do use it during veg but honestly haven't seen much of any kind of difference between the plants that we do mist & the one's we don't. Once we switched our feeding from Maxibloom (KISS method) to Jack's Pro, our plants haven't looked better. No deficiencies or lockout problems, which I don't think had much if anything to do with spraying them. We were spraying them to give them a boost, but I really haven't seen much of a bonus behind it.

I was foliar feeding with the technaflora thrive alive b1. But stopped about one week into flower. I noticed it works well on cuttings too.

hey dub, is this the right Jack's Pro? ...at Amazon they're callin' it a foliar feed, 27-15-12. ...25lbs for $39.49 + $11.00 shipping.
is this the one part you've replaced MaxiBloom with?
thanks in advance bro, ...that is one heck of a price difference, even with the shipping.
