i got my cuttings from a mate a week ago and when he bought them to me he had cloned them into soil. now this was a problem to me as i was ready for them in rockwool. anyway i done abit of searching around on here and found out that i could transplant them by washin away as much of the soil as possible, so i did this and for the next 4 days they were just sagging and i thought they were going to die but the next day they perked up abit...anyway i'll be postin pics and any advice would be welcome as this is my first indoor grow......thanks

everything looks good except for day time temp. a good target is 75 f but 80 f should be the hottest you go without co2.

ok nice one im on it now...ive got my termometer senser at plant height so i should just take the light up abit..cheers desertrat......pics will be up soon

Cool! I have Strawberry Cough also. They need about another week of veg then they go under my 600w, at which point I will start my journal. My temps are a little cooler, using Dyna Gro/Bloom in hydroton. Subscribed. Are your stems purple?

just sorted my temps there now 79 at the min...to be honest ive not noticed purple stem but i will be having a look asap. im tryin to upload photos but it aint letting me i'll keep trying

hey rucon, common mistake. you check air temperature at the top of the plant but with the thermometer shielded from direct light. you check radiant heat from the bulb by putting your hand at the top of the plants and lowering the light as low as you can go without burning your hand.

thanks desertrat you are helping me out here..im goin in there now to sort it out

some pics of my set-up and the babies first day in

and 1 week on i think they got by the transplant...well apart from the little one she aint done much really...but its weird because shes the only one that smells???

week 2 update:

after the last post i started lst and they are shootin out everywhere ive never tried it before but i love it..anyway heres a few pics...comments welcome

Sweet, looks like you're getting good results.

looking great so far. just picked up a strawberry cough clone from a club. put it in soil as of right now but I plan on taking clones and putting some in hydro
