Yeah I figured they were toast. I usually let them crack in water then into rock wool and haven't had any problems yet. The propagation unit got hit open and they dried right out. They were near the corner that had the gap. Of course it was near the youngest ones. Thanks for the help...

Well this goes without saying, but it's definitely my fault. Now that I've finished giving myself sh*t, I'm hoping someone has been able to come back from this :$ A corner of my propagation unit wasn't sitting properly and 2 of my feelings have dried right out. I watered them as soon as I saw...

Solid! I appreciate the help

I was told that distilled water has 0 ppm which affects the plant uptake. I don't know the exact reason, but that's why I haven't used it yet. Any truth to That?

In the long and short of things: If I normally water with RO and nutes added. I cannot get jugs of RO until tomorrow and my system is down. Could I use the garden hose to water them without being punished severely? A heat wave has dried things out and no better time for things to malfunction...

Yeah true. My plants were younger too when I did mine.

I used miracle grow for a little while and had some similar problems, but when my plants were young. My local hydro store guy said that miracle grow potting soil was bad for the plants. I picked up some sunshine #4 and switched them over. Within a few days I was seeing improvements. Surely it...

Newb question incoming... I currently am running 1 (soon to be 3) 1000w magnetic ballasts (120v) with PlantMax MH 1000w lamps. The single lamp that I have currently if run by a single digital timer just plugged into a wall socket. I don't currently have a 240v wired into my breaker currently in...
