TGA Subcool Pennywise (selfmedicators second grow)

Water temp was 69. I replaced it with ph'ed tap today. Hopefully they will recover. Guess I only need one to make it. I should have only tried to root one first. Live n learn

have you got a way to give them some heat. a heating pad or something of that nature. i think they may be to cold. you can still save them don`t give up yet.

Ya I have a heat pad. Just put it under the res?

yea! put it on low or see if you can keep in the mid 80`s.

Will do as soon as I get off work.

cool!

Got the temp up to 78 in just a couple hours

good deal, hopefully they will rebound. they want respond as quickly as a rooted plant, but you should be able to see some improvement kinda quick.

couple of them are showing some life. PH was up to 6.2. Couple drops of down and it was back in range. Temp is holding right at 80.

now you can trim away the dead or sick parts. if it has green to it keep it.

Ph keeps rising to about 6.7. Got everything trimmed up but I think ill be down to 3 clones. Not much green left on the tall one. My RH was only high 30s low 40s so I put the dome back on. Should help hold the heat in as well.

the ph may be the meter and the higher temp. instead of fighting it at the moment, just monitor it. here a link to help explain how the higher temp can affect readings. http://www.all-about-ph.com/ph-versus-temperature.html ..... even with a little green it`ll be slow but you can still get root. on my last run i had a pump go down for a few days before i caught it, my cuts looked as bad or worst and most pulled thru and rooted. as long as you have green you have a shot, it may take some longer but don`t give up on till the lose the green.

All I need is one healthy one. I got some 5 gallon smart pots coming for the next run. Should I elevate them on some sort of mesh grate or something? My airpots the bottom is actually an inch off the floor for drainage.

i wouldn`t think so, but i never used the smart pots so i can`t say for sure.

I just thought maybe the bottom would stay wet if it was flat on the floor.

don`t these pots dry out pretty fast? if they do stay wetter and the plant doesn`t like it the leaves will tell ya. i see people using a saucer under them. i would think a inch off the floor would add to the air pruning effect, and thats what your after with those pots.

I didn't know if it would get some disease with the bottom staying wet.

week 5 of flower.

with them up like you have it seems to be working well. try and drop it and see what happens.

the girl is frosting up nicely.

Not sure what to do with the clones. Water temps around 85. Air temp 82. RH 30s. PH 5.8 give or take. I might try and take a few clones when I harvest to see if I can root them.
