I've had clones do that. They can be revived. I think they might haven't developed any new roots and the rockwool is soaked and they are drowning or something. I would see about pulling them out of the system to try and get better foundation. That would be my thought.

:(

EDIT: Just re-read your post. Guess I didn't get all the way to the last line or two. So there are a lot of roots? Now I'm stumped. If it were me I'd still pull them out of the system and put them in whatever ICU kinda set up you might have. How many of them are like that?

I think you are right, I should have paid more attention to the lack of roots. I think they will pull through. I have shut off the water supply and moved the light up. I'm just going to hand water until they look better. The roots on the one I dug up were all the way at the bottom so I should be ok.

They'll be ok. I've had some sad looking plants in my time and I think I've only ever killed one or two plants at all. I honestly think they can tell when we aren't paying enough attention to them and they get back at us a little. With some love they will bounce right back.

I had a revelation about growing today. I have absolutely no idea why I use such a big light. Like really why do I need 1000w? I don't do this for money... so why should I be harvesting so much. To tell you the truth I'm not sure. I think it's because I thought it would be cool. It was and it is... but not sure doing something just because it's cool is a reason to do it. (FUCK... I'm officially old, hahahaha) So yeah... I'm thinking of downgrading.

And I'm also thinking of flipping to 12/12.

And I'm also thinking of flowering under strait MH.

And I'm thinking of popping some seeds soon.

Can you tell I've been thinking. :)

I have flowered under MH with fantastic results. I had a 400w mh that I flowered out WW clones under during my soil grow, there's pics way back in the journal. I agree that 1k is prolly overkill for your lil closet there, maybe grab a 600 so you can use less energy, but still fill your closet. With regards to flipping, and popping seeds, what better time then now. Especially if your not pressed to get the most possible yield fuck it, flower them out and make room for new flavors. Just my 4 cents though.

I'm thinking 600 would still be overkill. Considering I only smoke about half oz per month, wife don't smoke... I don't hang with friends much so no supporting their habits. Especially if I do kinda perpetual I'm thinking a 250 could even work. No decisions being made, just playing around in my head. It's wild in there.

Jig, you should really check out a 400 watt cmh.

you can veg and flower with the same bulb, it runs cooler, and it grows some good herb ;)

What up Ron.

Thanks Dr.

Pretty much the only MH bulbs I have used have been CMH. Had a 400w, but someone I knew blew it out. I still have my 250w. They are good bulbs.

Off to the baby doc this morn. 16 weeks tomorrow.

HHB man hope the doc visit goes well!

Man I couldn't imagine going from a 1k down to a 250, maybe 400. I gotta imagine it won't just be yield that is impacted, but also bud density, and basic penetration as well. Personally I give my light credit for my buds having so much frosting on them.

TC... is that a challenge?! I think I'd be able to get at least 5 oz a harvest with a 250 and as long as the plants were controlled right I don't see why the buds wouldn't be that dense. Doesn't matter too much I guess.

Appt went well... heard babies heart beat. Doc was happy with everything. We get an ultrasound in a little over 2 weeks. Then another appt 2 weeks after that. 16 weeks tomorrow. Only 5 weeks till 21. If we make it to 21 full weeks that would be the furthest along we have made it in 3 tries. Happy Healthy Baby!!!

Thanks for the support guys.
