    My first batch of clones are working out perfect. I just cut four more clones and they are wilting. Can someone tell me why?

    A pic would help. Are you using a humidity dome and misting?

    Stress. If the clones are not taken from the oldest/woodiest growth then this can happen, but they should straighten back up within a few days.

    I would love to post pictures on here, but I am very paranoid with doing that. Yeah I did take them from the top where the new growth is. Do you suggest on giving clones a little nuts or just use all water?

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^This!

    Basically GRRAYT is saying to take clones from older growth, not new growth.

    How do you cut 'em? How many nodes on your cuttings? Do you keep a journal so you can repeat good techniques?

    Nutrients really are not necessary at this point but I always had the very tiniest amount (like 50x diluted at least) when I let 'em root. Maybe give 'em supper weak nutrients after roots show. But honestly, I have been out of practice for close to a year now so you best be looking this shit up yourself.

    When I take my cuttings off the mother plant I always put the stem in a cup of water immediately. If you don't, and air bubble can form in the stem and block water from going up to the leaves. spray the leaves with water after planting the cut branch.

    Did you cut the leaves so the clone retains water? Did you trim everything off to make it a Y? Are you spraying em every 4 hours? When I put the humidity dome on I always blow in the air vents before closing it. Make sure the temp is right.
