Hey beginner, .. and woods I don't mean to hijack... If you want the straight dope on rooting out clones.. then read this thread and follow his advice to a T..
fuck, of course THC farmer is down.... Go there when it is up and read "rooting in the UC or veggin gin the UC undre the UC forum.
Short answer.. minimal nitrogen and low PH for rooting out. Like say 300ppm, mostly p and K and 5.2-5.5 ph.
When the plants start to root and grow you will increase your PPM steadily. 200 or so every week is a good bet. When your plants are around 1 foot by 1 foot you should be around 400PPM in the UC..or at least I am. PH can swing around.
What you really need to do is take readings every day and write them down. Then look at them and see what is happening. When the PPM are about perfect for the plants the PH stays pretty steady. PH up and PPM down.. Good... let them go a little. PH still climbing, PPM getting a little low... add a little nutrients and knock the PH down.
PH falling..... WARNING WARNING WARNING!!
And here is the best grow advice you will ever get... ALWAYS tend to the lower side of the PPM scale. IF you start to see problems, (plants looking a little yellowish, purple veins, maybe some mag deficiency or calcium spots) then bump it up a little.. SOO many people think..oh yeah, they are healthy and HUNGRY!!! Here you go amn, EAT a fuck load and get me high as fuck!!!! It just doesn't work like that. Healthy people don't gorge themselves at buffets full of tons of extra shit they don't need, same goes for plants.
Cheers!.
