Hi fellow growers, I just came home from an asian holiday and have a mate

willing to give me his babies from outside... Any1 have any thoughts on how

I shoud do this... Should I remove all soil from roots and gently transplant

into a rockwool cube to eliminate any soil/possible bugs ect? or maybe put

soil/root system straight into the hydroton and act as if it is rockwool (I have

2 of them in small strawberry pots)

Thanks for any input you may have, all thoughts welcome

Very easy mate- have a bucket of tepid water handy to gently wash the roots. Couldn't recomend Rockwool at this stage. If you are going Hydroponic, pot them on into clay pebbles washed well in dilute tomato food-they can go in most systems like that. Be patient -they will wilt for a day or two, mist them a little if you like, with a very dilute foliar feed.

Ummmmmm, I think there 3 or 4 weeks from seed, maybe 3" tall, I don't actually have

them yet, I got back from Cambodia today and my mate said I could pick them up if I

wanted them. I think he planted them when I left 3 & a half weeks ago.

Thanks Psyclone, my thoughts were to put em into the 3" cubes and let them root under

my growlux fluros, then put in the balls under 400MH, just for rigidity reasons I guess

(rockwool rooting).

Thanks guys, good to be back and straight into it hahaha fun fun

here you go.. this is what i did 3 days ago.. exactly what u want to do... follow what i did and ur plants will survive... PPM meter and PH tests really help

went soil to hydro test and its doing great!!

they will wilt for maybe 1-2 days.. its because they are trying to grow brand new roots. i have them under this hydro for 3 days and i already see A LOT of brand new roots...

Yeah, maybe cut the side of the cube to get them in? (rather than push them through).

thanks blonddie, I will get em tomorrow and test it out, well done
I will be using a drip system in hydroton, aero sounds good though
I'm all set up..

Yeah that's what I was thinking Psclone

Stick her in the guts from 1 side

Added pics up top, unfortunately my mate had them in a
pot with other plants, and I lost a lot of the root system,
hopefully in 2 cubes and misting they will live? I slit the
sides of the stem with a razor and put clonex on cuts and
roots... is this worth doing or not?
Thanks

Sounds right, keep them warmish and misted for a couple of days I think.

I have a twin lamp grolux 40w a few inches above tops now,
maybe in a few days they can go under 400w MH, its been 5
hours since they were plucked from their mud bucket, haven't
drooped yet, I expected them to be unhappy at this time...
