first: i bought 6 clones from a mm club? (guy delivers only) they were in rockwool, problem is they were not in individual cubes. they wer in a block of three. they have been in veg about two weeks 5 look great one is yellow i adjusted nute ph is good im wondering could i have damaged the roots when i seperated them? i had to cut them apart.

second: i have my palnts in a cfl grow in my closet i am working on a fridge right now i wanted to flower them in the fridge just found out that i may be moving in the next few weeks will it be easier to just run the closet grow and when should i move them they are still 24/24 veg about 16 days. everything in my closet is portable nothing affixed permanant except a few eye hooks. i think they would be out of their environment to long if i had to set up fridge again. any thoughts with moving.

oh yeah they house that i may be moving to is an exact replica of the one i am in now.

Do you remember damaging the roots?

They'll have to be moved when they have to be moved. Just try and make it when they are in dark cycle. If they are still in veg' just give them a 6 hour dark cycle for that day you move. To transport make sure the plants are covered with bin liners or something that will block out the light.

hard to tell but there were a lot of roots so probably. it is the only other reason i can come up with for the yellowing. the other 5 clones are quite nice.
thanks for the move advice i will try to fit them all in the closet and start the fridge after i move in.

Didnt they used to make you take the handles off of those things cause kids would get locked in and suffocate?? Doesnt sound like the best air enriched environment to me? Am I misunderstanding that you want to grow your plants in a fridge?

that's true. it will be hard to vent. The only way I'd use a fridge to grow is to drill holes in the bottom and turn the thing into a pot. Give her a couple of months veg' then flower the bitch.

ive seen a number of refrigerator grows and they work great. the venting is the biggest issue but i'm pretty sure i have it worked out. its perfect for sog and has seperate veg and flower rooms. it has built in reflection and very stealthy. two locks and hasps on the outside keep it secure from kids.can even accomodate hydro. what about my clone turning yellow? any thoughts

root damage is definately a possibility...Maybe just the shock of being moved? Watch over them the next couple of days and see if they dont perk right up. I just transplanted several plants and got a bit of sad droop but theys perking right on up now!

been watchin the yellow girl. shes getting new growth at the bottom as well as the top i'll just grow her out and see what comes. another week or so of veg and well see what happens. anyone else got ideas for venting fridge? im using fans in and out because passive intake does not pull enough air to cool14 cfls. the ballast heat is retained in the box but you can still put them close to the plants.
