Sounds weird. I've never used one of those, so your guess is as good as mine.

Get a soil meter. They're cheap and guesswork is stressful. Indulge yourself.

I had a clone that I pulled from a plant that was about 1.5 weeks into bloom, and the leaves looked just like the second-to-last photo. That's why I asked if these clones had a similar origin. Mine eventually settled into a normal pattern of growth, so idk.

Sounds horrifying. There's probably a sea of larvae as well that you're not noticing because they're tiny and green. If you have a magnifying glass and want to be grossed out, try taking a look. If you can use diatomaceous earth to dust the leaves and stems around the affected areas, I'm pretty...

Might want to consider buying a little roll of medical tape. The white stuff that holds up pretty good when it's wet. I take a length of it and cinch the tops of the cubes a little, so they hug the stem. I think it helps them root a little easier. I think your cuttings are nutrient deprived...

I'm not sure. They survive on living sap, so they would die off eventually. How extensive is the infestation?

That's scale, and it's probably the nastiest insect infestation to be rid of. DE kills them, but not when they're in scale form. I'm not sure how I would proceed if they appeared during late flower, but harvesting earlier sounds like a reasonable alternative to losing it.

You could also try pruning away some of the lower nodes. The plant is just a nutrient pipeline to the top, and those lower branches are pulling resources that might be better used higher up.

CO2 is heavier than the other elements of air, so if you can figure out a way to keep a pocket of it hanging around the air intakes of your tent, you'll increase its presence in your grow environment. You wouldn't even need a full floor to ceiling vapor barrier, just a container that is taller...

Did you pull those clones from a flowering plant?

I dropped a seedling that's in my current grow. Dirt upended, leaves bent, root ball falling apart. Scooped her up and replanted her as best I could, very gently spreading the roots into the new soil. She's a monster today. These are scrappy plants. Don't despair, even when it looks bad. The...

Buy some diatomaceous earth and throw it around like confetti. Now excuse me while I forget I ever saw those photos.

I'm pretty sure I had them in the bottom. I usually have them along the sides as well, tiny holes made with a sewing needle to allow airflow, but I don't think I did that step in this case. Honestly, I was a little bit reckless with those clones. I had a bunch.

If you're trying to root a cutting, you probably shouldn't let it dry out. And so long as your cutting hasn't dried out, it's only a matter of time for it to take root. I wouldn't worry about this one until I stuck it back into soil. And just follow the other posters' advice about cautious...

I had a clone that was similarly short, the smallest solo cup here. It was potted so that its lowest node was pretty much flush with the soil. It didn't go very well, seemed to drown and rot away. Yours looks low to the ground like that, so I'd be worried about something similar.

I've heard peppermint essential oil is like tear gas for rodents. Maybe worth trying if this is a persistent problem with that storage space.

Mine only started looking like buds after three weeks. Before then it was a week of aggressive vegetative growth and a couple of weeks of flowering clover-like blossoms.

If you want to throw some electricity at your germinating seeds, consider getting a heating mat. The warmth matters more to a cannabis seed than the light.

It should be fine. Just don't over water and transplant it when it has grown out 1-2 sets of leaves that overhang the edges of its container.

To the people who don't use light after they sprout: haven't you noticed your seedlings are suspiciously less green?
