Dude......what are you doing to the healthy growth vs the wilty stuff? How do the roots look on everything? Have the clones rooted well? Got a few overwated babies but overall they look ok.

@WeedHound - all the clones are in the same resv. I haven't treated any of them differently..its all about equal oppertunity around these parts =p But, I've never tried checking the roots with my grows cause they are burried in geolite, am I suppose to?

So those seedlings are just being overwatered? I'll definately let them dry out then. I've been watering them once in the morning and once at night...I used to use a spray bottle but I started just with these by dipping them in a glass that has the water in it. Maybe thats why they are getting overwatered..

No no, water the rockwool , not the plant. And don't soak it, just wet/not soaked. Then wait until it gets pretty dry before watering again.....I don't use rockwool myself....hopefully someone else can chime in with a good seedling watering schedule for rockwool.

good luck.

PS If the next watering makes more plants wilt I would stop the experiment and go back to what your were doing before. With water at 300+ I'd love to know exactly what IS in there.

Talk to me about what happens when things start to go bad and give me the more detail the better.

@WeedHound - yea I've decided to skip a watering for tommorow morning. And I'm going to use a spray bottle and just get them wet this time as well. Going to just water them with 300+ water and 1/4tsp grow nutes. I may just cut the nutes out until they get more true leaves. Hopefully they won't do too bad by tommorow morning.

We use well water and had trouble holding ph. You apparently do not have the same issue!!! lucky you!!


What's the ppm of your tap without the filter? If it's 200 or under, lose the filter and add a couple mls/gal of Cal Mag. That would the very first thing I would try.

Good luck.

PS......looks Loc Nar beat me to it. I won't forget that loc nar. :D

I'm trying to get up to speed on this thread. LOL. My bro has well water and the brita only brings it down about 20 ppm's. My best guess is his water tastes of iron and must need the cal/mag. I got him to not use the filter but he says it helps so I let what works for him work.
