I would stick with plain water until runoff is about 0.2 to 0.4 EC and then introduce a very light feed of about 0.4 ec.
    Yeah for sure to buy one tomorrow morning too check the ec on run off. So you think just water alone may help them perk up abit and be abit stronger. Could they be getting lack of water with suck small roots in the cube still? The cube could be drying before everything else or would the roots naturally search for water Evan if they was tiny ?

    If healthy the roots search for water. Without knowing EC of runoff it is impossible to be sure of anything. Based on the info given I would think plain water is your best bet. At the same time, I would listen to Monsters advice. He definitely knows more than me.

    What kind of light are you using? What size is your grow area?

    Hey thanks everyone for their advice, I used monsters advice I've done the propagator with some bottle it's been humid/wet inside for few days now not much difference, maybe the leaves got up a little. So for few days now I've been feeding it plain water with phdown with cheap meter that shows yellow when I add it which on chart says is 6, what should I aim for with coco. Ph and ec pens are on way. After my post first I fed them couple of times I had about a 1liter of drain, now half that, I think the old nutes are gone need ec pen for that right? I've done some tweaks with the air flow and the vents I'm gettin at the moment 40% rh with 28 Celsius. I got a niceWhat else I took some propagator things off today and left two on that looked smaller that the rest. Also there was no sign of roots when we got them and put them in little pots on first week And gave them week 1 feed that. With no roots. This gave them toxic shock maybe?

    using the dome ''70%+ humidity'' means your plants can absorb water threw the leaves, is why it's so important to keep rh down in flower
    ph for hydro 5.8

    you never feed non-rooted/rooting clones, it's water only
    is why the propagator makes life so easy
