Remember when I asked you why you wanted to use the RW so badddly, if I remember right when we were talking about cloning? This is one of the reasons why. I do hope that it all works out. That wilt is a real thorn in the side and it will stop nute uptake like you wouldn't believe. There is a poroxide wash you can do if I remember right that may help them recover a little, I will try to do some research, I don't remember off hand exactly and I hate giving bad advice.

Yeah if you do your meant to use the dull side. But your better of using mylar it's cheap or use flat white paint.

I havn't herd of any people having any problems with those oasis cubes, but I am not sure about the size. Over on IC mag alot of people use them it seems like so you may want to ask over there. I know Big Toke uses them on his clones before they go into the Bio Buckets which I want to try some day.

Hi BlueBear think am going to get rapid rooters and chop them up an put them in a net pot with a clone in one rooter intact sat in the chopped up bits to try and limit the salt retention the rockwool gets loaded with the salt from the nutrients.I might give the bio buckets a go myself read a lot about them and bittoke seems to have amazing success with them.

Take it easy Blue. :thumbsup:

What kind of hydro system do you have, and how often does your medium receive water? Also, what kind of nutes are you using?

Am using NFT with ionic nutrients and the water pump is on 24/7.

I think that the RW is probably having problems with constent moisture retintion. I would try to think about using hydro ton or clay pellots to save you some headaches. My friend who was here yesterday said that he was pulling 3 OZ's per plant in a NFT. Just my thoughts. I hate to see fellow growers having multable problems. You want your grow to go as smooth as possible it is so much more enjoyable and saves money and time in the long run.

Hi BlueBear, am going to use a rapid rooter in hydroton should run smoother.
This is my first grow so still lots for me to learn i got some superthrive for when am taking cuttings.So hopefully i wont stress the plant to much and give me more growth to take clones from.

Take it easy Blue.:thumbsup:
