ok still dealing with root problem here. i posted new pics of roots. Ok so this is what i did. I have a small clone going of the haze#3 and afghani i started last night seeings how they where big enough. So i got to thinking today and i think my roots are getting clumped together and rotting becaue they did not grow through the rockwool and where from soil not hydro. So after thinking about it I pulled the big afghani (bought some florashield for rooot health) cleaned roots again with florashield . Seperated roots best i could since she had lots of them, put hydroton in net pot about an inch or so and tried to spread those roots out all over top the hydroton. Then put more hysdroton on top of roots as they were now spread out morebut really not going out the bottom cause they would just clump together if they went straight down and i don't think they where gettin anough air on them makeing them rot. So basically fanned her roots out on top of hydroton and buried with more. Inserted feed tube in side of pot so it was washing onto roots. Hopefully this will help promote the roots to grow more. As for the haze the roots looked terrible hardly any at all. So i decided to bite the bullet cut them off and try to clone it again in rockwool this time nest to the other little clones i got going . So then this really got me thinking. Thats why my alaskin ice is messin around caue the roots where from soil and started rotting and lost most of them. So i cut the roots of of the alaskan ice and also put some take root on it and put it in the clone dome home made outa big blank cd holder. Got a couple cfls going above it and I am misting all for clones several times a day keeping them moist. How long till i see roots for these guys u think? And does any of what i said make sense? hopefully i can get some healthy plants here the afghani #1 did not yellow at all overnight put was not very perky i suspect roots where too clumped . The haze #3 since the roots where so small started yellowing on me . So basically right now i have the afghani going and 4 clones hopefully gonna take root in rockwool and then i think my root problems will go away. Oh yea new pics of the roots i cut off, the bigger of the 2 root systems was on the alaskan ice the real samll roots where on the haze they just looked terible to me. https://www.rollitup.org/members/xxstelxx-albums-new-girlies.html
