thanks solanero.. I appreciate the two cents worth. feel free to offer more advice!

cannawizard, see my reply before this one.... still learning how to use this forum. You're invited too, Jin.

ok I see that you have the 4x4 or 3x4 rockwool cubes and your clones are as big as mine. you have them all stuffed together. they look vigorous and dark green. I see the tea is great. however, how do you keep your clones from getting water logged? I put mine in the 8" cubes and they just...

jin, already running the bubbler. I like it already. THANK YOU. checked the pH but don't trust either method. high 5s (i think). send me the link for your cool-ass meter when you have a chance.

yes I am a girl <<< see? thanks guys. I would love to scrap the rockwool and do the 3x4 cubes in hydroton pots but now my girls are mostly rooted and I'm just trying to optimize. I will let them dry out but they never do. I have cubes that I saturated but didnt' use and those fuckers are...

I check the pH. It's in the 5s but I need a real pH meter. I'd like to feed them too but they aren't getting it. I spray them with foliar but I really want them to get rooted. I have the flood cycle every 15 min backed by 15 min drain now. trying that. I was trying to let the rockwool dry...

I think the problems have to do with the waterlogging, which is resolving itself. that and I didn't know I needed to presoak the rockwool. if I had it to do over I would skip the rockwool altogether. can you ask sudynim to post a photo of his pots and describe the contents? I'm thinking I'd...

new subscriber here. looking forward to seeing this grow.

i bought a digital pH meter but forgot the calibration fluid. my liquid pH tells me I'm in the 5s. the digital pH meter says 6.4. I trust the liquid test kit even tho its ballpark. I water for one hour 2x day but am backing off to i time per day. I strengthened my nutes but do'nt have a ppm...

I sprayed my babies with both neem and Safer insecticidal soap. it took three sprays over about two days and they were gone and didn't come back. I don't know about spraying buds. worst case you can wash the spray residue off after there are no more signs of mites, can't you?

green and slimy isn't mold, it's algae and it only grows where it can get light. I bet you have the white and fluffy mold. I had it on my rockwool and I went after it with a little diluted chlorox bleach spray just on the affected parts and it went away.

boys boys... calm down I was reading your thread and wanted to throw in my $0.02. I am a newbie grower with the same problem, rockwool/seedlings not growing etc. My problem turned out to be that my rockwool was oversaturated with weak nute water and, without an airstone in my res, there wasn't...

please take a look at my thread and throw in your $0.02 (two cents) my clones are all a month old from two different mothers (diablo and skywalker) I also have a bubba kush that survived my first grow. one sky is 2 feet tall and the others are much less tall and vigorous. some clones are...

I have set them on top of the hydroton to help eliminate the saturation. They should be able to wick up the moisture they need but not be too saturated. I left the wrapping on to keep light away from the roots but now I'm questioning that after LordJin's post... hmmmm this shit is tricky...

thanks for the input Don

the rockwool is heavy and therefore indicates it is full of water and nutes. part of my problem according to lordjin is that my clones were probably waterlogged and therefore unable to absorb nutrients. I've had these clones for about a month and one is 2 ft tall but several are barely 6...
