I got a clone beginning of June. She really has sprouted. I used some cheap soil and manure from wal-mart. (I didn't know anything about soil) These pics are about a week old. I have 6 growing, so far only a few pics... Any advice is appreciated!

The big one is a purple strand. The smallest, is from Jack Herer. As you can see, the other two Blue Dream and Grandaddy Purple are doing really bad. Actually worse as of now, no recent pics. I took the sponge looking thing off the bottom of the clones after they started to look like this. Please let me know what I've done wrong!

Did the sponge looking thing look like this?

Yes, at first I put it in with the soil. Put it in the shade outside and it started wilting badly. So i put it inside, then today I took those sponge looking things off.

Bad idea taking the "rockwool" off man, more like terrible. Were there roots growing through it?

No, none. The roots were like an inch or two long. First time growing, I appreciate any knowledge that you can pass my way. I want to start an indoor set up

Did you rip any roots off during the process? And by the way next time leave the rockwool alone, it was not the reason for your plants wilting

No roots were ripped, I did it very carefully.

Okay than luckily you might be alright. But please do not ever do that again, you will do nothing more than hurt the plant.

Still likely hurt them. Carefully removing rockwool sounds like a lengthy process which I'm guessing meant u had ur roots exposed to light and bare elements for a while.. Hope they bounce back man

word of advise.............never screw around with the root or meium that you grow in unless you are re-potting and even then dont separate the roots from the medium cos the shock to the plant will either turn the plant hermi or worse still kill it!

the wilting clones were experiencing shock as a result of the dry air. get something to put over the plant to create a humidity dome if it isn't already dead. I use 44oz cups to help my clones transition out from under the dome.

never take off the rockwool you crazy over-zealous stoner
