roots.jpg So i have these 3 stunted seedlings ( long story..check delicate seedlings post if u must)...anyhow i dont think they are going to snap out of it or start developing a structured root system as its been 2 weeks already...so i'm about to try and chop it and force new roots...is this a good idea? If it was pythium causing the issue will that travel with the plant and will it root being so young??

Thanks

Unless you potted them in lye i think your chances of survivors is better leaving them in the pots. Its harder to successfully clone with cuttings from struggling plants.

Two weeks isnt that long. If youve got a good environment and dont overwater they still might pop.

I said the hell with it and tried it on the one that is 5 inches taller than every one else...now if it does work they should be more even in height and i cld check the root system...so i clipped it and trying to root it..but i checked the root system in the dirt and it had finally started to take off...so now i know the others should be doing the same and snap out of it soon!!
