I gotta lose those waterfalls. HELP!

[Aqua Man]

A question if ya don’t mind. I have a bubble cloner water temps are kept 77-78f. A certain clone has had white bumps for over a week. Normally they burst out into roots within a few days from appearing. Not this one. Any ideas.

Are the rest doing well?

yes,this strain has rooted before in under 10 days.it is a little cooler in the room water temp is the same.

What about dipping in some rooting hormone ?never had to use it before,just plain tap

You can try but I think it just may have been the way the cutting was taken or it's overall health when taken. I take you know what your doing with clones since the rest are fine

Was reading about it. Perhaps too wet. Some have had success just planting with some nutes. Apparently the the nutes kick off the roots. Most of what I’ve read have no real answers. Just a thing I guess.

Tap is fine... Hell some strains will easily root just stuck in a glass of water. I clone in peat pellets. The key is to prevent air pruning so the roots need to stay moist, the root temps ideally to be about 72-74 higher is ok because there is little o2 demand so yours are fine. I use air temps of 80f and humidity at 100%. If that fails then it's likely just the way the cut was taken. You want to drop em in water right away to avoid air getting into the stem... So cut and straight into a temp adjust glass of water until you put them into the cloner. Then ensure the water level is always good.

I mixed my nutes and added my h202 24 hrs before it went into my res.sat uncirculated. Does this count as one day?

Not sure what ya mean

I'll be honest, I've never bothered to put my cuts into a glass of water. I'm not waiting around though, cut and put into the cloner or medium of choice. I mean I always cut from the plant twice the size I am going to cut down, so I cut twice.

Yes cutting twice will make a difference

h202 sitting for 24 hrs before it went in,i have to add back every 72 hrs .I assume the clock starts as soon as i open the jug of h202.

I dipped said clone in gel,white bumps look bigger today.Its 24 days old.was a bottom branch perhaps i shoild have scrape it.

 

[DaFreak]

24 days old I would chuck it.

 

[myke]

24 days old I would chuck it.

With bumps and its still green,no mother anymore so have to wait.

I agree but if it's all hes got might be worth a try.

So a little up date. Still using tons of ph down. More than 1 ml L. 130 ppm. Bubba looks a little lighter green then last go. Tips are starting to show the spots again see pics. Ppm of food so far has been lower then last crop About 200 ppm.ph has been lower also by .3 I’d say.you can see it just on the tips starting.
First pic about 7 nodes. Second pic is tips from about 4 th node down . Third is whole plant.

I want to say this like I know what I’m doing but, this is one of a few grows I’ve done. I have all my ladies in separate buckets and here’s my thoughts and please let me know if I am deadly wrong. I’ve always thought that it is better to lose one plant then all. So if my nutes are mixed to strong or to wrong I would be able to fix it right away on the plant being effected.

ill attach some week by week pictures of my auto ak47 and please let me know if y’all think I should go to a reservoir or just keep doing what I’m doing.

Im using fox farm nutes with a off week light feeding of maxi grow. These plants are five weeks currently. With the fox farm I did have a problem with over feeding because I followed the chart..... wrong move but I flushed and we got back on track
Happy growing


Thanks,

@Nickg1988 please delete your post as this is my journal so to speak. Thx. Please start your own thread. Edit and delete your post. Copy it first though lol.

This seems to be a very common problem for SOME people growing in RDWC the forums are full of it. Have a look at this thread especially the last few pages. I jumped ship with RDWC for exactly the same problem.

Reoccurring problems every grow WOODY J (UK) to the rescue

It may finally be getting through to me! The next few weeks will tell! Every grow I am experiencing Calcium deficiency at around week 3-4 into flower and duly a less than optimum harvest. The cal deficiency escalates so I up my PH to over 6 and add more cal although I am sure they have enough...

Yes Ive been watching your thread thx,my issues are with one strain only.Others have no problems in my system.We have slowed the problems down so far as the plant has been growing better then last time.Ive implemented many things from your thread and from some great advice Ive gotten here.Have you ever grown your strain in coco or soil?I have and find I dont get these problems so its something with the water or the nutes.Im just a hobby grower so getting to the bottom of this issue will be a learning experience . Im confident this will make me a better grower.
