Ummmmm,........




Roots need air to survive. Cuttings will last for some time in a cup of water,.... kept one about 3 weeks like that before the cup ran dry and it wilted.

What I'm seeing there looks like a half cocked DWC method and probably isn't gonna work at all, but I might be wrong. (probably am since I'm not a Hydro guy)

I guess if theres a hell of a lot of aeration that I'm not seeing in the pics it might be viable. :wtf:



Leaf damage looks like multiple problems,... Fill out the Hydro trouble shooting form and get back to us ;)
