Never used it but I'd guess they would be fine for a couple days...I'd definitely want to cut the wrapping off & plant em in the MG when they get their second set of leaves but even then they probably won't be rootbound or anything.

hey redtails
thanks for the info, and what do you use for your sedlings/clones??
i have no previous experience with these but for 11 cents each how can you beat it??
i have had to water once and i spray them down all the time so i guess that the watering isnt as accurate as it could be, but it seems to be working out.

I usually use just soil, but for clones this time around I got Rapid Rooter plugs, was like $8 for 50 so I figued why not. After I'm done with them I'll go back to soil though, don't really see any advantage in them besides they hold onto the stem better (once you cut a slit in them because the hole is too big).
Hey just be careful when watering peat pucks, they can turn rather acidic, oh and cut the mesh before transplanting (someone might have said that already). I like the rapid rooters but after my current bag of them are gone I am trying the diy bubble cloner found in one of the stickies.
i will make sure to cut the wrapper off..
and thanks for the info on the acidity of the peat i will be transplanting tomorrow to MG in 20 oz solo cups.. i cant right now though i want to.. i am just waiting for the flowering light to turn on so i can leave.

here are some pics i took after transplanting to MG in 20 oz cups
hope they like it
In approx 7-10 days, repot them in 4-5 gallons pot, they will thrives!!!!
:thumbsup:
OMG.. that is a little more soil than i have right now.. and isnt that a little big of a pot to move them to this early?? also i have a limited amount of floor space to put the plants under light... that would kinda chew through it fast ya feel me??Quote:

In nature, the pot is the earth. Is that a big pot? :P big pot = big pot...Starting to get drwosy with cold and chugged up sinuses...and vodka..
