5 week MP aero + fog. next time, going to start with larger clippings. looks ok though, but new foliage growth has slowed. dipped roots in tarantula + great white today and going to do a res change. shouldn't they be a little bigger at 5 weeks?

Is it 5 week from cut, or 5 week from initial rooting?

They don't look THAT far behind and they have some nice
thick root structure developing, but there does look to be a
slight browning going on to some of the roots. What are your
reservoir temps at? Many people complain about those fog
units heating up their reservoir way too much and if it's the
earlier stages of root rot that could explain your slowing growth.

Just a theory still need more details :)

from cutting. roots emerged about 5-7 days for all of 'em. the ones in the baskets are seedlings about 2wk old.

res between 62-70F. cycling triple fogger on for 50sec, off for 100sec. using small fountain pump and 4.5amp water cooler for chiller.

browning is probably residual from the bacteria/fungus solution dip i did today. looked pretty white up until now. instead of adding that stuff to the res, i just dip the roots themselves every couple of weeks. a few days after, i do a res change and hit it with H2O2 (which probably kills off the beneficials) and hygrozyme. too much beneficial dipping too early made the roots way too crowded and stunted growth a little, i think. so waited until now to hit it again.
