so just put some clones in 5 gal grow bags under a 1000. heat is not a prob. but from the stem out is turning yellow. plus the leafs are floppy curled down. do you think its just shock? PH? NUTS? there in a green house.
1000 watts of what? HPS, MH? Fluorescents?well i misted them with rain water last night then again this morning. after that i added 1/2 a cup wood ash plus two tsp of house and garden root exten. they didnt look better this morning so i was hoping that will perk them up. i also raised the light half a foot.
You don't say how many clones you are growing. I'm assuming they are all under 3 inches, yes?its a 1000 hps and i cant lower the watts thats all i have to use. but i only run it for a few hours in the morning then a few at night inless its rainy outside of heavy forcast. there in a greenhouse.
Really! Research is your friend here.you need to do some more research before you try cloning again....... did you cut them yourself or did you get them already rooted..?
clones don't need a lot of light,,it sounds like yours have had too much of both light and heat.... I keep my fresh clones in a incubator so I can keep the humidity high.....until I can see loads of roots growing through the medium,,,then I transplant them and put them under cfls for a few weeks before they go anywhere near a hps...... ............every one has there own style with cloning but there are some great threads on the site...check them out...........good luck with that
If the temperature is not going below 60, don't bother with heat. If anything, that may hinder growth moreso than help.why would a green house not work this way??? the clones are from oaksterdam they had a good amount of roots on the bottem. i added a lil firts today and didnt emprove much. the light thing maybe that could be moved up im going to raise me light a foot or two more so it would be almost 5 feet away from the tops. it gets some what cold in there during night so i have a heater in there?????
ah ok that confirms what i was thinking because even with proper ventilation which it sounds like you have, you can still get the lights too close. needless to say i can put my 400 watter closer than your 1000. here's a chart i found really helpful =D right now i have my light approximately 6 inches from the tops of the plants and they're growing 1/2"-1" a day!put some pics up. go look. but the babys look alot better since raising the light some.
