The title to this thread and your actual question are 2 different questions.if i take a cutting and put it in those little spongey block things vs to soil, which would root first?
Keep using Tap water.oic, so im better off just sticking cut part of the clone straight into some water with bubbles?
one more question..... i have one clone that shows 3 roots at the bottom of the rockwool. i stuck it in the net pot with hydrotons and about an inch of water hitting it with bubbles too. now would it be ok to put some miracle grow all purpose plant food in the water? i plan on feeding the clone a little bit at first and ill gradually move it up ah notch.
iight, well if i do use the MG will it kill my plant?Keep using Tap water.
Tap water (My tap water) usually has at least 300ppm's of nutrient already in the water.
Which is all I use when I'm cloning for the first week.
Then I'll add about 200ppm's of Olivias cloning solution.
Once I can't count how many ladder roots there are, which should look a huge ball of roots.
I'll up the nutrient to 600.
Watch your Ph, I keep it about 5.6 - 5.8.
Water temp should be a tad lower than the ambient temp.
As far as MG for nutrient, I'm not that thrifty when it comes to growing.
If you wanna skimp on costs for nutrient.
I would at least go with botanicare's products.
I dont know what it is with people using MG fertilizer.iight, well if i do use the MG will it kill my plant?
o iight. im ah noob when it comes to hydro, so all i really got right now is MG which i use for my soil.I dont know what it is with people using MG fertilizer.
Get some jacks classic if anything.
No, it wont kill'em, but your not giving them a "breakfast of champions"..(use very little)
I'll tell you that much. Good luck man
You don't need a reason from me, I'm not gonna steer you wrong.noone really gives me the reason to use it and how exactly to use it.
i mean like, why do i use it (for flowering or Veg), how much do i use and when.You don't need a reason from me, I'm not gonna steer you wrong.
Obviously you need much more education in horticulture.
Buy a book.
On the back of the bottle, it shows exactly how much to mix.i mean like, why do i use it (for flowering or Veg), how much do i use and when.
i need to know like the schedule for these nutes, know what i mean?
