Just 5 ml per gallon. I haven't had any fungal issues inside or outside in my veggie garden since I started using it and the cool thing is besides being a great foliar antifungal agent, it's a plant growth promoting rhizobacteria that solubilizes nutrients, generally helps plants grow better, and can even induce SAR. I'd just get the small $7.99 bottle to start with to test it out.
I was very surprised. Hope it’s a indication of a good year lol
I pulled it after they all popped anymore stretching and I would’ve definitely pulled it right away
I actually tried rockwool cubes and same result. Cubes I got are 4 grams bone dry and 40 grams soaking wet. I let it get down to 20-25 grams and the bottoms of the roots turned brown and soggy. Are seedlings supposed to get all their water from the air? Am I wrong to try to add water my seedlings?
Trust me this situation is making me want to never grow anything ever again but these plants have been my main source of income for the last 2 years. I was getting 5 harvests a year almost 6 if I was more on top of my cycles. I've always had minor problems with the seedling stage but never anywhere close to this extent. Everything that's worked for me before with seedlings doesn't work anymore it's like I'm doing this for the first time again. At this point the only thing I can point to is the medium. I'll update when I try starting something in a 100% sterile medium.
I soak my cubes and squeeze a lil water out the first time, rest of the time I just water them with no worries, sounds like you have a root rot problem in your cloner...
No I'm just dipping them in water every other day. They last 2 days before going dry. When I started them to begin with I soaked the pellets to expand them then I squeezed as much water out as I possibly could so they look moist but there's really not much water in there. The pic I took I just dipped them in water before I took the pic and I only dipped the bottom part in water but the top still got wet so fingers crossed they don't die. My shopping list rn is that root tone powder and southern ag.
I'm doing coco/perlite drain to waste hydro. I've always had bad luck adding seeds straight to coco.
All I can think of is airborne fungus' or the grow medium but I've tried rockwool with no success so it's gotta be airborne fungus I guess. While I wait for this root powder and fungicide to get here I want to try watering my seedlings with peroxide. Has anyone tried this? My fully grown plants can take 1-2ml of 35% peroxide per gallon. If I can give my seedlings a strong but not too strong dose of peroxide with every watering then it should be almost physically impossible to get damp off.
I had a friend start some seeds that I have now that are doing good and also got some rooted clones from a friend. I’m pretty sure I had my lights too close because I had some seedlings grow fine in the shade outdoors but they grew really slow and it was hard getting them used to direct sunlight in the summer sun.
