Not a bad idea. Just be careful. Dont want them to fall over. If I were there with my tape you wouldn't have to worry nothing moves after I'm done giving it a tape job.

I wouldn't even attempt it without having a professional on hand! I'll go with big stones and little stones or something equally as stone aged.

Clone day 3! 99% humidity in the box this morning so I left the lid off for about 15 minutes and it got down to 95% at the bottom. Temps in the low to mid 70s in there so I'm hoping that's all good. I do want the soil to dry out a bit so I can get Great White in there without drowning them so I'll be venting the lid whenever I'm home.
Here's this morning's pic before I sprayed them and covered them for the day.
I tried tipping them to get the leaves off the ceiling but I would have had to go so far over the roots would have gotten confused as to where to grow so I left them as is.
Planning ahead:
1. Should I take off the flowering bits?
2. Do roots show first or new growth?
3. I'm guessing clones continue with alternating nodes so how will I recognize new growth? Will the small shoots just take off or does it come straight out of the top?
4. How do you top a plant with alternating nodes? It's not like two will grow if you cut it, will it?
5. And last, when I up-pot can I bury more of the stem? I need these to start off shorter than they are now.
Thanks all! Hope your week has been good so far

You'll get roots first then growth, the tops should show growth first. I wouldnt worry about topping for awhile.

Seeds? When you planning on germing them? We are chasing each other around the same 420 strains!

Day 4 in Clone World and everything is green down in the box. One leaf is curling a bit but I'm sure that's to be expected if all the moisture is being sucked in through the leaves rather than up through the roots. Some leaves are just less able to absorb moisture.
RH is still at 99% and the temp was 71° this morning (coolest time of day).

Saturday and it's day 5. Everything is still alive which I consider a very nice thing! It was getting a little chilly in the box (68º) so I put a heating pad underneath to warm it up. It goes off after an hour so I have to remember to keep checking! RH is pegged at 99% and I'm wary to let it dry out at all since it seems to be doing ok up there.
Should I just leave it at 99% until I see roots?

Poke a couple holes for a vent? I would suggest 70 to 90%. Too high and mold will form really fast and fungi love warm wet area. Just my 2 cents but shoot they look awesome shed! Keep it up bud
Just remember the only source of water they have right now is through their leaves.
Yeah screw it. They look happy as can be. It's like a tropical paradise in that tub
. Just keep the h202 handy if you notice any white fuzzy gerbil on the soil give it a little watered down spray . Otherwise I think your good until you see roots. In that environment I'm guessing as soon as next week for sure bud.

I left the top vented for an hour or so and it got down to 85%, but...
...so I sprayed them and put the lid back on. I'm sure it will go back up to 99% within an hour!

I checked the soil and so far so good with the mold. I have H2O2 handy just in case!

Take a clone off that DH and stick it in a cardboard box at the bottom of a closet with the lowest watt CFL you can find!

Slows down and/or stops transpiration in the little clone bastards, giving them a chance to hold on to more of their precious water while they root. That and, it makes it easier to cram like 100000 clones into a humidity dome without to much overlap of the leaves too. :3

When you top them generally go for the highest node on the biggest cola when the plants are so young .
New growth should start coming from everywhere you see bud sites, however reveging can take like 20 days before roots sometimes
so you will have to be super patient.- Thread starter

Patience I have. I've got the rest of fall and winter to veg these indoors and out so that's no problem. I am worried about rotting the stem before the roots have a chance because the RH in the box is pegged at 99% so the soil never gets the a chance to be anything but soaked. I'm wondering if a day with a plastic bag over the leaves but with the soil open would help.
Clones day 6. Smelling a little mildew in the box so I'm going to wipe down the plastic with rubbing alcohol. What dilution of 3% H2O2 can I use on the leaves if they smell too? Or none at all?

Quick update. I cleaned the box with 3% H2O2 (easiest thing to reach) as well and the bowls and the outside of the pots. Then I flipped the box upside down and raised the box off the lid to let dry air get at the soil while the leaves stay wet (I hope).
Can I clean the leaves with something at this point or should I just let them smell a bit?
