Well, the washing of the roots to do a hydro grow was a disaster!
So instead of watching them just die, I took the 5 plants and turned then into cutting and clones.

Just hoping that all turns out well.

Now any suggestions would be more than helpful.
Not sure what went wrong with hydro grow, but shit was not a good experience.
going to get as many clones going to do a soil grow as possible.
Help would be nice.

Sunni, that is the old growth, did not cut it all back.
Went from nice looking young plants to totally fucked.
I am going to need help on this one, so any suggestions and recommendations welcome.
And yes the plants yellowed big time.

You tried soil to hydro? Just so I get that right before I comment further.

So what type of hydro were you striving for?

And what are your cuttings in? It looks like rapid rooters in a bed of vermiculite.

Ok details

Got 5 clones from a friend earlier this month.
Grew then till I had my hydro set in place.
All was well till I washed the roots and put them in hydro, 11 gallon tub, rain water to start with no nutes or additives.
Ladies took a dump, so I removed them and they had root rot bad, tried to wash, no success so I cut the roots back to clean growth. replaced clay pellets, washed everything good and with clorox. I got some new growth and root coming out of the baskets.
When to hydro store and told the guy where I was and how I was growing. He said oh yeah you need this. well followed his instructions. a few days later smell, slime, nasty and ladies looking like shit.
Called the manufacture of the product the hydro guy sold me.
The manuf. guys said you cant do it that way it will slime and smell. Well I took the plants out and it was nasty. You can see pics in other post.
Again I took all apart and started over, cleaning using light nutes and rooting stuff, also added Superthrive.
Yesterday, plants look bad but no slime, so thought I would give them more time.
Today the looked like shit, so then took the cutting, and using rooting solution and Rapid Root cubes I started over.
What more info do you need
