"scribed" I'm about to do my first DWC grow in about a week. I'm kinda going off of yours because I have a lot of the same questions. Good Luck on the grow man, I'll definitely be watching.
I was also going to use rockwool, I wonder if I should switch. I didnt know they weren't as good for hydro. Anyways I hope you will have big buds to smoke

Hey leggo heres something i thought id put together for ya just cuz i had 3 seedlings already started in some plugs that today just turned 6 days old.
Germed for about a day and a half in a paper towl inside a cup with a half inch of water in the bottom at all times.
Took my jiffy plugs and squeezed them out in a simple bowl of tap water until soaking wet. Before i put the seedling in i squeeze out any excess water but its still damp.
Then i just drop the germed seed into the whole on top of the plug taproot down.It will seat itself in the plug.Then i put those right on top of my clone bucket under the cfls.
As you will see i should have checked the plugs yesterday cuz they should be in the bubbler by now.
When i transplant these into the bucket im putting them all 3 into a 5 inch net pot with 2 inches of hydroton in the bottom of it. Ill put the plugs in and cover the rest of the way with hydroton.
Next i put this net pot in the bucket with my water level 1/2 below the bottom of the bucket. Then i forget about them! I dont even put nuts in the water till the roots start hitting it!
Get these plugs bro!
Hey ive included a couple pics of some clones in a bucket.They were just like urs for a few days while building root structure. But a week and a half later are getting to big for my clone area and in another week will be going into flower! have patience bro. check out the roots in a week and a half!

Day 29/14:
no roots yet out of the pots.
boo.
However, Jane is no longer droopy, and Fox isn't so much either... however Sway and Franky are still down in the dumps... poor way to spend Franky's 2 week birthday.. with only a couple sets of leaves :-/
I even started Franky after I made the ciritcal changes, HPS, better water/schedule etc...
Jane, while doing good, her first set of true leaves never did survive the initial nute burn from way back... and the both shriveld up and are dry and brown. They came off.
Also.. this may be a weird question, Jane is overall bigger, but fox has 1-2 more sets of leaves.. However, I can smell Fox's great smell (if I put my nose to her) but I can't smell jane... or the rest... is this common??

I recant!!
I have a root out of the pot!!!!!!!!
Fox does have the littlest bit of a pure white tip just at the bottom of the net pot... it will be really fun to track this root progress now
*wipes forehead* I hope the others aren't far behind
sigh of relief
fade to black
