    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Well I weighed them dry to start then weighed them again wet, they hold masses of water them big cubes. Any way I figured out how much water they were holding and spun them out in my salad spinner until they were holding half the water they could (dunno if this is dry enough, it was my guess...

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    I've got my other rockwool cubes soaking, I have flushed them 4 times now, the PH keeps rising but I think they are starting to stabalise.

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Anyone any idea please - should I think about taking the top of the propagator now or does it need to stay on for a bit more? its day 10 i think. The lil starter leaves are yellowing and looking like their gonna fall off but this is part of th eprocess, no? GG

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Thanks Lask The only problem with blowing a fan over them is they are in a propagator with a lid on so the fan wont blow on the plants. Do you suggest that I remove the lid now? is high humidity not such an issue now? As for nutes this root-regenerator says its supposed to be used from start...

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Thanks for the further advice guys, to be honest I'm finding it useful to weigh at the moment and I can see the amount of water needed is going up eack day, I'm at about 9 days now and their taking about 10Ml of water mixed with root-regen each day. They seem to be growing ok, ones a bit on the...

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Thanks Lask The roots ain't coing out yet and it'll be prob next weekend until I have the time to move them anyway by which time I guess there'll be plenty of root. As for weighing well when I transfer up to the damp larger cube (which are soaking now just in case I suddenly need them) I...

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    Another question too I have my cubes in a heated propagator with a 125w cfl directly above the cover, the temp in there with the propagator switched on is about 90-95 degrees, with the propagator off its around 78-80, should I leave it on or off? is 90-95 a bit hot? Thanks

    Young seedling/plants falling over

    I do appreciate all your advice but how long do you think it takes me to pop a couple of cube on the scales to keep an eye, 30 seconds maybe. Plenty of time for me to get on with my life, which at the moment if full to the frickin brim

    Right, no one replied and I had to make a decision sharp as I gotta get on with the rest of my life so. I pulled the 1 cube apart and it looks like the root had grown up ou of the plug then back down and was about 1 inch long. I was as gentle as poss and did no visible damage. I poked a hole...
