Hi All,
I need some help as I am a neophyte to the grow game. I have a hydroponics system and using BC Nor Lights Producer at the moment. It took me forever, about three weeks, to get the first batch of pups, different breeds, but all mostly in the Indy family, looking healthy. Now they are finally starting look like plants and have good growth, I burned the hell out of them with Safer, cause I didn't know what I was doing!, but alas I am past that trauma. My quest--ion is about seedlings however since I decided tht is the chaeaper way of going. I have germinated several seeds successfully using the paper towel method, but after they sprout and grow in rockwool to about two inches high they start keeling over! I decided to try to move the light down in my clone dome w/40watt FS flour and tht seems to help this last batch, but I've gone through a couple hundred dollars and several seeds experimenting and now want results? I'm keeping the temp at about 75 with a mild breeze via fan blowing. When do I wean thiese pups fropm the clone dome and put them i nto the 125W FS of the BC Producer? Would pics help to explain better? Thanks for your wisdom. Most of the sprouts now have a four leaf tip.:pimp:

Confused makes two of us...:wtf:

Are you saying your clones die after you put them into the system? I don't really know what a BC Producer is, but do you wait until you see roots until you put them in there? What's your pH? Are you feeding them right off the bat? You'd probably get more help in Plant Problems and some pics would be sweet. :jointsmile:

In the mean time I'm going to look up this Producer thing.

No, Even when they are in the clone dome they are keeling over? I have some that stay really healthy, and other that just say sayonara before they grow roots? I'm enclosing pics:thumbsup:

Do a test run with bagseed.
Domes keep humidity high enough for pythium rot.
Try removing the dome as soon as leaves first emerge from the medium.
You will need to clean the inside of your system carefully.
Listen to Rhizome.
