    Why are my plants dieing?

    Temps are about 30/31 celcius but lots of air movement. The roots on the dead plants looked OK to me, what type of fungus do you mean? I will look in the flood trays later when it's lights on. You think I'm Watering them too Much?

    How much longer? Difficult to tell.

    These are clones. So when you put them from seed as 12/12 from flip do you find the flower period to be what is predicted or longer? Thanks for the help. 8-)8-)8-)8-)8-)

    How much longer? Difficult to tell.

    Yeah but what's confusing me is they are 65/70 day strains which must be conservative estimates by the breeders, and if I go by when the flowers first started to form that puts me at 6 weeks, well short of even 65 days. And the fact the trichomes aren't amber also confuses me. If they going to...

    How much longer? Difficult to tell.

    What about when flowering begins? Is it at the flip or when white hairs begin to appear? I flipped clones 8 weeks ago but they definitely took about 2 weeks or so to show the beginning of flowering, so does that put me at 8 weeks now or 6 weeks? This fact combined with the fact I don't see any...

    How much longer? Difficult to tell.

    What do you use to determine harvest time if not trichomes? What on that plant would you say makes you decide its ready to go? I see mostly milky on the pic you said is ready to go, would they turn more Amber as it dried thus ending up as more Amber trichomes anyhow? I've got some plants I feel...

    How clean do Flood and drain clay pebbles need to be?

    The plants have been in the hydroton for about 5 days now, I was putting water around the plug with a turkey baster and then fed the plants once every other day as the plugs were really retaining their feed when surrounded and covered by the clay balls. I also flooded up to about 3 inches of the...

    How clean do Flood and drain clay pebbles need to be?

    I had a few rockwool cubes for clones once and I thought they really held water, like properly saturated unless I took some out. How do you manage the amount of water in them on a flood and drain table? Or is it not a problem? Thanks for your help.

    How clean do Flood and drain clay pebbles need to be?

    Ah right, that's awesome! that could be one way around it, I was also thinking of lower containers, wide and low, and and splitting the flooding and draining into 2 of them so roughly half in each one, that would make me less worried about it breaking. Or water storage containers for a van or a...

    How clean do Flood and drain clay pebbles need to be?

    Thanks very much for the info. I'm a bit concerned about all the water I'd need now, if the tub I'd need can hold it without breaking, I'm in a house in an upstairs room. And the fact that tub the size to hold all the water will raise the flood and drain tray up about 30 cms higher than I have...
