Just bought some clones...a few Q's

[Madda Fakka]

Hi I just bought 3 clones that are about 7/8 weeks old. They have established roots.
Could someone tell me how to deal with them...they seem to be in a type of rockwool, so can i put them straight into soil or do I try and get them out of the rockwool. Obviously I sould get the plastic surround off first.
Also can I put them into pots straight away or should I let them settle into there new surroundings first?

TIA

#1) Inspect them for mites, etc! It's easier now than it will EVER be. I personally dunk ALL clones in neem after getting them from the dispensary once before. 2) Give them a nice home. Unwrap roots and straight into the dirt. Make sure you moisten the soil as you put it in the pot so you have no dry spots since you won't be watering much for the first couple weeks to allow for root growth. 3) Put them in their happy home and don't love them to death. Too much of anything can be bad. Looks like they're big enough to handle 1/4-1/2 strength nutes.

Hi thanks for your advice...so I DO take the rock wool off?

No. Just the plastic wrapping. You want to do and touch as little as possoble of the roots. They will continue to grow and the rockwool will just help it anchor the plant.

If there are not too many roots I carefully take the chunks of the rock wool with no roots off before replanting. If I am going into the soil I just leave the rockwool. It does not decompose though and you should remove it at the end of the season.
