I got a few critical + cuttings in root riots. Were very healthy when I got them, all rooted. I have no growing media till monday apart from rockwell blocks, and sugar cubes but no pots! so just trying to keep them alive. Never grown with cuttings before. They're getting worse and worse, leaves are curling look dry.

Fed them 300 ppm rhizo and vega for soil when I first got them

Put them in a cheap propagater

Originally under 400w MH, thought maybe heat light stress\ so now under 100w Cree Cobs 3590 3500k

Been spraying with 300 ppm rhizo often

Now moved them just lying flat in a Tupperware box with a blackbag covering the roots, see pics

This is painful just watching them die slowly infront of me.

Plain water?Less water?more\less nutes\?spraymore\less? Take me back to seeds!

Think these pics might end up massive sorry

Any advice, thank you?!

Greetings, looks like heat stress and they want some food.. Rhizo I'm pretty sure is for root zone only. Kelp mist would be/been better. Plastic bag is no air in root zone, bad. Sorry if out of scope.

Also
rhizo-

BOTANY
  1. relating to a root or roots.

Thanks for reply mate. I agree they were light stressed and heat stressed. Brought out the LEDs and dimmed them right down, temps are almost a bit too cool now and maybe need a heater in there.

I think you were right about the black blags, I was only really covering the roots from light though I did leave some space for a little circulation. I think I managed to salvage them, got some rockwool blocks to transplant so looks like they'll be a hydro grow, not sure they would have lasted the weekend otherwise. However, this pheno is a robust monster, had 5 inch roots on a couple which were cut only a week ago! 5 of 8 look healthy.

Just realised none of my pictures uploaded, so I'll include a couple below before and after, also my Chocolope seeds for kicks as they're looking happy. Not sure I'm out of hot water yet with the cuttings, my seedlings are usually healthy start to finish, couple of the cuttings still need a little TLC. Only need 4 to survive anyway, one is pretty much dead, :( . I got them for free after a mate killed my incredible bulk seeds drunk 2 weeks ago anyway

Dont have any calmag but have some soil canna terra vega which has a litle magnesium, I think my tap water should have enough calcium for the moment. I might start feeding tomorrow with some rhizo, just getting tap water atm. Not showing any deficiency yet

Still have some tacos. But still alive after the transplant and not deteriorating since yesterday.
