Hi VV thanks for the help. I was told by a couple of people to use a weak solution of nutes to soak them, hopefully your right and 420ppm wont hurt and the water was ph'ed to 5.4 - it was 5.5 but adding the nutes seemed to lower it (is this something that happens all the time?)
I was also told to just keep an eye on the cubes and when they get a little bit dry to dip them into a weak nutrient solution again to moisten them, is it spray watering that you recommend?
Could you recommend a root enhancer? Could I use rooting hormone which I have purchased to use with cuttings?
Thanks
