So, my seedling ended up with root rot. I germinated in rockwool, which went fine, until being proactive about not over-watering i ended up letting it dry out, and the seedling did as well. So after this episode I had planted her rockwool and all in soil and got her in a humid environment (Thanks Mr.Natural), which did wonders she was back on track the next day.
After mixing up a batch of soil id felt id be a little happier with, one not so nute rich, i went to transplant her into it, the cube felt soaked, i begin to slowly pull away the rockwool from the seedling, after a good 10 mins of doing this really slowly i found the root, little less than an inch below the first set of leaves, a tiny section of the root had basically rotted away completely pretty much separating root from stem. using sterile thread scissors i removed the root away just above the rotted area, leaving only less than an inch of stem left.
As of now this is what she looks likeView attachment 1678847
Has anyone else dealt with this issue, did you save your seedling?
We taking bets on if shes going to survive or not?
Should i be germing another bean or just wait? (i dont know how well these things survive after losing the root at an early age, im sure one of you has a better idea)
