Proper Light
Over-lighting a fresh cutting can easily cause it to droop and stress. We are trying to minimize water transpiration from the leaves once the cutting has been made, so soft light is preferred for this process.
How do you revive wilted clones?
If your clones are wilting and look like they're about to die, improper temperature or humidity is to blame. You must remember that you're mimicking the spring season. Slowly introduce them into their new environment that contains intense lighting and wind from fans.
Some totally wilt over limp and others show signs of low humidity stress (the leaves curl up to a crisp on day 2-3 after transplant) The clones are rooted in rockwool cubes and hardened off gradually from day 5 -10, removing the dome completely for a day or 2.
