Clones!?!

[la marea]

hey, anyways, I got these grapefruit clones almost a week ago, and they were transplanted into 3 gallon pots of sunsoil #4 w/ worm castings and perlite. They're on very very diluted Advanced Nutrients Micro,Bloom,Grow. Anyways, they all seem fine, except one which has wilted and probably will die, but they haven't really seemed to have grown at all. They look a bitt stiffer and maybe as if they're starting to adjust, but they did have a couple of days when the chamber was in the mid 80's but that was fixed quickly. Anyways, my guess is that they're just shocked like any plants and could take maybe up to another week before I notice any changes, but if anyone else has anny comments... I'd be much obliged. Thanks

haha oh yeah, the heating problem was the 1000 HPS but its all good now, we've managed its heat.

The soil should have a few weeks of fertilizer in it, even longer for a lil clone, you might be over feeding it, even with a diluted fert. along with whats allready in the soil my be extreemly too much for the small clone.

I'm not sure about the Advanced Nutrients products, but I wouldn't give your plant anything for flowering so early in the veg. state, your grow room in the mid 80's shouldn't be a problem, mine is anywhere from 78-85 and my plants are doing fine, just keep up the air circulation. GL, post pics!

I agree w/ Bongo though, don't give your plants any sort of nutrients yet, that could very possibly be the reason your clones haven't experienced any growth yet, also, this isn't too big of a deal, but you should start your clones out in some smaller pots (keg cups or even 1 gal. containers) and transplant them to larger ones. Just FYI :thumbsup:

so is flushing a good idea? Or should I just water and wait a bit?

[Dan K.]

just don't give it any more nutes. Water it as usual and it should recover fine.
