Help with my clones

Well here is my situation:

I've got my hands on some clones from a reputable acquaintance of mine. They're about a week old and i just got them last night. Some are yellowed a bit, I have no idea how he was storing them other than 24/7 hours of light. Here's a pic:


Now the lights are 1 Fluoro desk lamp about 1 foot away maybe a little less. Also 1 100Watt bulb about 2 feet away maybe a little more. The temp inside is about a touch under 30 degree celcius. The cubes a just slightly moist and they're getting misted everyday. They're beginning to root...

Now i was told that once their roots are beginning to peak out of the cubes it's time to put them in some "promix" in beer cups or little pots. Do they stay on 24/7? Do i need more light?

Right now they're in an aquarium, pictured here:




Anyays i'm just looking for some suggestions here as i go.
I'd appreciate any information from anyone who knows that they're doing.

Thanks,

 

Ok, well i've moved them into my cloest now and taken the incendescent bulb away.
I was wondering does the container that the clones are in need to be closed for more humidity? Like in this pic?


Or is it better without the top?

They've got 80watts of cool white fluoro on them now for now, 24/7.

 

Thanks for the tips. Lol someone was telling me to have the cubes with the clones in them swimming in water on the halfway mark on the cubes. Which i thought was rediculous as you said, you want the roots to be searching for water (growing).

Some of them are rooting quite quickly so i went out and bought some Promix.
Specifically this:


Put them in little plastic cups with some small holes on the bottom. The promix is just a little moist and not drenched. Aswell i moved the light down directly over everything.

 

Thanks, Yeah those potted ones are the worst of the bunch. Since they had some roots peaking out i thought i should try them in soil and see if they pull through.

We'll just have to wait and see how they look in the morning, and if there's any change in their health.

 

Well I thought I would update everyone regarding my ladies. Most of them have been doing very well. I've moved most of them into their own little cups with promix. They've been doing very well aside from a few that I planted to early.

Weird though, some of them have come so close to death. Completely yellowed and wilted, yet I can see some new green developement on them. They continue to amaze me and do a complete 180 from death and thrive everyday I check on them.

Still the 2 in the first pic on the left seem to be complete losses. I expected them to go they were in a sad state originally and I had planted them to early.

I noticed a sort of green moss like substance but not moss maybe just a lot of green in the top soil of 2 of them? Anyone know if it's something I should be worried about. Also I have some little flies I notice 1 every few days around, is this something I should be worried about? If so how do I get rid of this problem? A fan?

 

Well, they seem to be coming along pretty well. Not sure when I should be planting them in bigger containers. Most of them will be going outside, but some will stay indoors.

 

Still on 24/7 fluoro cool.

I believe they'll need to be either put into larger pots, and/or moved outdoors. In my case it's both, some will stay in and some will go out.

I'm looking at this site for info on how or when to tell if they're female or male? I'll continue searching it up on here. But it someone happens to know I would appreciate your reply or comments on my grow.

Thanks people,

 

Ok, so the time has come. I'm starting to move my plants from indoors to outdoors (balcony)
.
They were under lights for 24 hours a day, and I moved them out just now at 1:30pm in the afternoon.

Should I have switched to 12/12 before doing the move? They were clones off a Fem.

Any tips for this would be most appreciated.

 

Thanks for the reassurance, i guess i should also be looking for some sprays or something to ward off the pests that will try to infest.

Last time i tried growing on my balcony with one plant it got invested with these pod cocoons like things near the bottom of the stem. I'd like to prevent that from happening again.

 

I'm not even sure how much light they're going to be getting. I'm basically taking a gamble with these first 4 moving them outside. We'll see what happens and once I see how they do, I'll get an idea of what I should do differently if anything with the rest of them.
