i recently transplanted a 2 week old seedling. it is in rockwool, but as I had ran out of large rockwool cubes I decided to plant the rockwool cube into canna coco pro.

anyways, after a week the seedlings growth appears to have stopped.

The question is: shall i risk removing the seedling (in rockwool) out of the canna coco and into a large rockwool cube?

I got a bottle of rhizotonic ready, just waiting on some help!!

many thanks in advance

I'm gonna wait until the lights come on and see how dry the soil is then give them a little boost of rhizotonic.

Does that sound like a good idea mate?

I havent used rhizotonic yet, I only just started using coco. It cant hurt if u dont over do it. I love coco pro+ and so do the plants lol, ull have some lovely strong root action in no time, keep an eye on the drainage holes for signs in a week or so lol.

so you wouldnt advice transplanting the rock wool into a larger rockwool cube?

its probably too late for that now. I feel a bt dumb having had to transplant a rockwool cube into canna coco.

btw -the seedlings in peat pellets and canna pro are absolutey having a great time!!
