You are growing in coco?? You are watering with too high a ph. Treat coco as a soiless medium and ph 5.8-6.0 Water it at 6 and should bounce back

its not all coco it is soil to it just has some coco coir fibers to help retain moisture. so i dont think that i would water it with soiless ph measurments.

no its called black gold coco blend. here is a link for the info on it.
http://www.pasadenahydroponics.com/black-gold--waterhold-cocoblend-soil/

and i was thinkin they might be root bound to. but then i thought wait because they were vegged in a 2.6 liter pot and then put into a 5 gallon bucket for flower, and this problem started about a week an ahalf ago. wich would mean they got root bound in less then three weeks. the owner at the grow shop in my city says thers no way it is bound. but i really dont know if it is or not

So im doing my homework on raising a mother from seed to be a source of many many clones and this is some good reading material for the curious minds. got a few questions for anyone in know about cuttings {mainly}. Read up its worthy.:bigjoint:

http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=31919

Its gettin late so i wont ramble. My first ? is. Is trimming the tap roots a good practice. The tutorial says "The tap roots are not wanted at all" or something of that manner. Lots of feeder roots are ideal.

So in a situation like mine where im bubble cloning to grow in a hydro set up, Does the same apply?. Curious? I love the science part of this hobby. very intruiging. Peace 1BMM:idea:

great read dude...i usually cut thru roots when i get rootbound either thru neglagence or lack of space but the idea of pruning roots when repotting is very intresting..ive seen workers at the garden center rip flower roots apart when seperating but ive always been kinda weary about choppin off ganja roots but i will give it a try with a couple bagseeds

I dont know much about trimming roots on clones but my idea is i want more roots on my clones. You gonna push them so hard as it is. All I know is just what works for me and the more roots the better healthier the clones are

Nevermind what i just wrote i just now saw the thread and I dont know much about keeping mother plants. I wish I had an extra room to keep some mothers because im cloning the same plants 10 times then they start fading out and not producing.

i have a question! when im tryin 2 clone from a plant that shows preflower & is female, do i want 2 leave it in veg when cloning or bloom?:joint:

Its always best to take them in veg. I took some one time that was 3 weeks into flower and they took a month to get any root action. They was in the humidity dome so long they ate all their leaves off and even topped its own self. Yea take them in veg always

Hey guys, I have a question. These four clones are my first ever. If it matters, they were done in soil. I had to tie the tall one down last night, and I noticed, the upper portion of the stems on all four is soft - as in super flexible - I mean like, you can almost pose them, they are so soft!:shock: They don't have the rigidity I've come to expect from a plant grown from seed. Is this normal for a clone, or did I fuck up somehow?

Hey DoeEyed, Well they look mighty happy to me. Upward pointing leaves, etc.

According to the clone article posted by 1BMM above, soft tips are better for cloning as they have better growth potential. So you could assume that a soft tip on an already rooted clone has the same thing - plenty growth potential.....

I agree With DST Ms Doeyed. Them clones look mighty happy to me. How long have they been in soil, Or a better way of puttin it. How old are the clones. If you just cut them they are going to be flimsy and droopy till they root. It appears to me they have and your well on your way to some happy plants. Good Job :clap: 1BMM

So i was just reading about these new pots called air pots. Heres the link.

http://www.superoots.com/air_intro.htm

These look like the ultimate mother pots. May have to give it a try. Also if your worried about getting root bound in a long flower period these could be the answer. check it out folks. Peace 1BMM:bigjoint:

Yo 1BMM, Don G and T and Las Fingerez and the UK boys are using these already. I am trying to order them from NL but having a mare, so will probably revert to a UK site.

Did you not like the lassies accent on the video, good ole Scottish girl, and a Scottish made product as well!!!!! Who said the Jocks canny grow?

Hey McPurps I checked out that link you posted for your soil. I dunno man I think you sshould still treat it as a soil less medium. It says it contains peat moss and coconut. Im not sure how good those 2 combine together because peat moss is very very acidic like a 4.0 ph and the coco is a neutral 7.0 I use peat moss for my grow medium and I add dolomite lime into my soil. Imnot sure if you wanna put dolomite into coco?? but from what i was reading if it was my plant I would adjust the ph lower to 6.0
