bonsaiTALK Community - View Single Post - Is there any hope for these?

Thanks for all the advice guy's. So I won't give up just yet.

My room is quite hot as I have a south facing window, although I have plenty of places with shade, I might try the humidity tent idea. Perhaps fabricate a tent out of cling film and straws or something to go over the top without touching the cuttings?

What do you think of using a CD spindle lid to cover instead?

Also, as bonsaikc mentioned my soil looking wet. I had just watered them in the hope that they were just a bit dry. I only have 2 types of soil at the moment, Potting and Cutting compost which I thought would be the ideal option going by the name of it, or Akadema. Should I perhaps make up a mix of the two, or just use some akadema to put the cuttings into?

Thanks again, if i get a response quick enough I will try tonight, if i need any additional material it will have to wait until tomorrow.
