How different are the needs of new seedlings and fresh cuttings? I.E. would a propogator set up for rooting cutttings be inappropriate (too damp?/too bright?) for seedling growth? Am germing a few more seeds (kinds late I know but 8 out of my 12 first batch of plants were boys )Thinking of taking cuttings too - coudl they share an environment or not? Any guides/ideas/experience of maximising this in minimal space (i.e. one coverred propogator) Set up: 125w blue-spec enviro-light + fan + heated propogator with cover and vents... Seedlingsgoing into soil mix. Was thinkign of trying cloning into soil and possibly coco coir in same propogator... | ||

Seedlings can probably take a little more light than cuttings, but aside from that, it's the same. They both benefit from moderately high humidities, warm root zones, moist media and moderate lighting levels I germinate seeds in my clone-dome with the heat mat on and have been getting a 100 percent success rate thus far.
