Just wondering.
Clones arn't for another 2 weeks for me.
I heard if you take bark or young shoots from a willow tree and soak it in water it can substitute as rooting compound.

I did this whole project from scrap. No money was spent. Except for the seeds of course but if I grow, I grow with elegance.
I move around at night, under moonlight, to get my materials. It sounds funny but I did have to smeegul ninja my way into getting soil and pots. The lights are lamps I found in a mini-scrapyard and the bulbs I got from family members. All equipment is sterilized not just for the plant's sake. I even manipulated my mother into getting my ph testers haha. "First college project on acid rain maa". I would spend money but I'm unemployed as I spend my time going to school and tripping out. What else would you guys expect from a 19 year old?

the very last line of the first paragraph. very low levels. levels that are not high enough to effect your plants

you honestly can just take a cutting and place it in a cup of water and it will root. the sucess rate isnt very high but it is possible and there are people here who do it all the time. clonez only use water also but spray it in a 1 micron mist

I just came back from flushing all 4 plants. The runoff ph was acidic in the ranges of 5.0-6.5. Bad for soil? The top layer watering was baking soda water with a ph of about 7.0-8.0. I also added new topsoil as the old was getting crusty and stale.
h202 was used to give the roots some air and prevent any possible buildup. I am a clean freak.
I'll get back as soon as improvement is seen or if crazy shit happens

That's just for the one that was too acidic. I tested the runoff after the baking soda water and it was still slightly acidic.

i agree most tap water in my area has so much clorine and high ph that plants will show signs of stress almost instantly in hydro. just some growing pains i discovered in my youth

i tried cloning tops always roted i think to much stem to support and they rooted at stems right above rockwool hope you have better luck reggearican

Okay so about 24 hours after flush everything looks a little more green. I've noticed the chlorophyl smell has gotten stronger, if that's what it is. The few big main fan leaves on my biggest plant are drooping as if the stem cannot support their weight. It looks like their may be taco curling too
Is is possible for a ballpark range for the yield of a 15'' plant with about 8-10 nodes? The description for the strand was 500g/sq meter.

I found a camera that works. I had a big bowl to celebrate.
At about 8:00 the lights come on and the babies will be woken up.
I will be able to show any readers the problem and hopefully they can diagnose it.
