White Fire Drooping 3 Days After Planting

What's up with this WiFi clone?


BEFORE: (top-left)


Three days ago, it went into a #3 Smart Pot containing a 50/50 mix of hydroton and Sushine #4. The SS4 was soaked and the cuts watered in with a 350ppm solution of No Shock (5ml/gal). It looked great at the start of Veg Day 1.


AFTER: (~72 hours later)


Here at the end of Veg Day 3, it's quite droopy. I notice now in this photo the lowest node is still pointing straight up and all the others are thriving, so what's going on with the upper growth?!

Looks like the plant is focusing more on the top end rather than the rooting! I would half trim those fan leaves. Also the 350ppm still might be too much for the clones. I would focus on getting the root structure to take. So try some beneficial mycos... or something to improve root uptake and growth...
Again those tops are too big.

ya looks like it just isnt properly rooted yet....i think it should still be in a dome and i would of used some fast rooting soil instead but thats preference

get a soda bottle, cut it in half and cover the plants with the bottom half. as stated earlier the root system hasn't established itself well enough. keep the bottles on them and slowly acclimated them until root system becomes established enough where you don't need the bottles any more.

Nope.

These clones are/were super healthy (good look, Harborside). Here's an 'extra' I'm about to plant in a few minutes (miscalculated my medium requirements and had to wait on the source):



You can see there's just a hint of browning because they're ready to get into a bigger medium. It's easy to imagine that three days earlier, these were pristine.

So the roots are there en masse and they are quite healthy. Next possible answer?


I'd love to hear from someone who actually has experience with something like this and knows you can't solve a puzzle like this by guessing at an answer or making assumptions.

we do have experience...how bout this, id like all the info you have on the situation up front so that the most likely answers can be ruled out if you already know them to not be the proper answer. with what you gave us to work with our answers made perfect sense. you just wasted my time, time, which is the most precious recource in the universe and i gave you some of mine the least you can do is not be a dick while im just trying to be helpful...obviously everyone thinks it looks like a lack of roots from the info you gave, or lack there of.....your final comment was unwarranted and pretencious...i guess we all should have just not given an answer and instead circled choice e. not enough info

I see hydroton and some kind of peat mixture in a pot. Don't mix the two. Use perlite for aeration and don't mess with hydroton in non hydroponics setups. They look like they were up-potted before they had the root system to support the size of the clones. Too much plant mass above the surface. Next time take smaller clones. They will be healthier.

maybe the roots have a bad connection.

hey medical mary dont u see he already denied the obvious answer that looks right and proceeded to be a douche....or are you just trying to push his little buttons??

I actually didn't read anything he said in the thing I quoted. All i needed was to look at the picture for .15th of a second to see what the problem was. As far as I'm concerned this problem is solved. Look at the size of that clone and the itty bitty cube it is in. If ya gonna take clones that big you need a root system that can support them or put some kind of humidity dome on them when you transplant.

ya i agree thats why he hasnt come back since i called him out...he nos he has no skills and is a dbagger

Mixing 2 mediums. The cube was prob wetter than the new medium. NO MENTION OF PH. IS THIS NOT IMPORTANT ? RH? INFO WOULD HELP.

So, b4 u get smart with some lovely helpful growers, why don't u at least ask urself why ur so incompetent in providing the basic information.
