![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | am i looking to keep a fair amount of rH in the dome untill roots appear? or should i let it decipate slowly and let the rH ware-off? and once they have roots showing on bottom of rockwool , is it okay to remove dome and put rockwool in soil ?

Definitely if you see a root take them off the dome, they will need food soon. Transplant them and even if they wilt a bit don't worry, if they got roots they will perk up. | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Well here are some of my good news too. My Afghan kush clones rooted in record time, 6 days today in the dome. One of them has very healthy roots already out of the sack, tomorrow they will be going for transplant and under the lights. This is the fastest strain to root so far for me out of six that I grew the past two years and I'm very happy cause it will be perfect for perpetual runs. Here is a pick of the plant that I took the top from and the top it self. | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | pic 1- Yvette pic 2 - so i do not stress about what i can't see. collapsed them early with too much air, lost 2, but picking up pics 3 and 4 - our girls Lou, doing us proud. grow different indoors than outdoors. Learning to leave clones alone; it's hard.. lol nigel

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Now you have to wait for them to do their thing clay. Keep the RH and temp in check, and roots should be coming out the next few days. Open the lid daily, few min more each day until they don't wilt no more. | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | True confession time...my coco in pots did not work out well. I got stem rot in about 1/2 the clones and they did not make it...if there were a clone (child) protective services I would be in cuffs right now. Thought I had the water squeezed out of the coco but obviously I did not. For now it is going to be the Lou method with Rapid Rooters for YS. I have no clue why I take something that works perfectly and mess with it until it doesn't...character flaw perhaps ![]() Wonder what would happen if I left the dome off using the coco pots...hmmmmmmm? | ||
