Lol I just cut some clones. The old fashion way. Retiring my cloner. They may be fastest but they are not "cut, stick, done" as claimed.

EDIT: congrats on the roots!

Thanks everyone, now let's hope all 30 advance to the next level. If they do, I'm going to be swamped with pineapple.

The 5 KC Brains Mango seeds that I planted in seed starter soil have not emerged, just like the 5 I tried in STG cubes, they seem to be doa from EDIT. KC Brains seeds are now 1/15 for me.

The 6 Nirvana New York Power Diesel seeds all germinated. Now in rapid rooters, 5 have sprouted. I removed little piece of rooter to view 6th seed and it's Radicle is still alive and I suspect the seed is just a little slow...

In less than 24 hours, I was able to soak and germinate a G13 Sour Candy seed. It is now in a Waterfarm, placed directly on the hydroton. I did use a 2" net pot in case the seed fell down to far and I needed to rescue it. It didn't. :)

Looks like rapid rooters worked a lot better for ya. I love em there like the perfect starter. I am usin them instead of my cloner. Its an all natural media that gets em off too a good start and I know when I start in em I don't have to feed for like 3 weeks vs 2 when I don't use em. They got all kinds of goodies in there

The cuttings are still looking great. One has developed a rut spot on the leaf, and I think 2 of them have stem rot or something going on. The chlorine tester showed that it was time to add bleach, so I added a 1/4 tsp of bleach to the 6 gallon reservoir this morning. The ph is at 5.6 and has been pretty stable the last two days.

ROOTS:

The roots are much more pronounced. We will be 5 days in once 5 pm gets here. I'll snap a pic then and we'll see where we are. I need to finish my 4" net pot DWC totes. I was hesitant, because my nursery gets up to 85 degrees in the summer, but with the results I'm getting with chlorine, I'm going to give it a try. That will take care of 15 clones. The microgarden will do another 8

I love the coffee flavor... it is by far my fave. I wonder why they charge double for marijuana flavor?

that leaf yellowing is a good sign ime. it means they are trying to push roots by reallocating resources to the new growth.
