Clone into hydro problems

got the clones on Tuesday , i let them hangout the room under the low light for two days.

Their in 1inch rockwool with maybe half inch to an inch roots that some got a little dry root tips in the transfer....

In this time i sprayed them with a very dilute food , h202, and sm90 to clean the clones coming into the house.

I put them into my hydro setup two days ago with lots of air, and they only seem to be getting worse.

Ive currently got my air pump going into my feed line with the venturi adapter.

Water 19c
Air temp 22c
Humidity 60%
Ppm350. Start tap water is 150 from a spring.
General hydroponic 3 part with very low dose of rapid start and armour si silica.

Any ideas ?

Was it the h202?

Should i only turn my pumps on only once a day until they get way more roots?

I sprayed while the lights were on but their very low light...

Do they just need time?

Thanks folks

Overwatered.

I run a ebb and flow system with clones from a ez clones right into hydroton. I first thought there was no way I could over water. I was wrong. I drained and flooded every 4 hours and they dropped like yours. Cut it back to every 8 hours and didn’t have an issue.

Your main issue is that it looks like you have that rockwool cube submerged in the water. I don’t know the in and out of your system but I’m positive that’s your issue right now with over waterintbb

Ok yeah their not submerged but they hang about 6 inches over my 2x4 tables in their little netpots , with clay balls.

Ok noted. Il cut mt watering way back until they get lots of roots

il try one in the morning , one at night for now think thats ok?

I put the pump on for one min at 7am and 1 min at 7pm

This may lead to a stagnant resevoir and root rot. You think ?

I could hook the air stones back up

Over watered and/or too much light. If you can turn it down or raise them as high as you can

Rig a waterfall. Works better, less issues.

Hope their fine . I wont flower until their back to perfect. About 10 inches. If not il just veg longer to fillout the canopy

If some are fucked il put the good ones in one table or two and just get another set of clones and stagger my harvests mo big deal ive been thinking of doing it for a while

You just need to chill and aerate (read up on the different methods and pick what works best for you) your water. I’ve kept my reservoir at 68 Deg with a bubbler for 3 months straight and never had anything grow in it.

Is the actual cube getting soaked? If so I’d try that and see how they react

Yeah the waters dumping on them. And the cube was getting soaked all day.

I cut it back to one min in the morning one in the evening . Well see .

Anyone think i should turn on the fans to make them drink a bit maybe ?

..... Currently no fans running except the a.c.

....... Its 60rh. But thier soaked so.

Or is that too much abuse right now ?

So when i mixed my 29% h202 i put 100ml into 1litre to clean with. Then i diluted that by 1/3 to soak the cube and then dikuted that mix by half again for the foliage spray i was trying to go extra light but kill incoming shit if any..

Looks like it may have been strong

I sprayed maybe 4 times over the last 4 days .



Here is my new disolved oxygen solution / stirring.

-note. When i put a 90degree fitting on the end it makes alot more bubbles.

Il juest ooen the valve to open the feed line once or twice a day manually for a sec until they get lots of roots
