Need Help,
1. 250W MH/250W HPS combo with relector
(Veg Cycle)20hrs on/4hr off

2.Hydro Set-up, growing in rockwool(Tray, pump, airater, etc)

3. 3ftx4ftx8ft grow space/closet,vented + fan

4. 80 Degrees lights on/67 Degrees lights off.

5. FloraNova + Floralicious nutes

I have roots that are growing upward on biggest clone 2-3 weeks old elongating on middle and slow growth on the runt...any ideas of a fix?

Leaves are yellowing with burnt tips but nutes are good and light is about 20-24" away!?!?!

Again Thanks for any help. . .
 
Are these clones ? if yes its better to have them in a propagator for about 2/3 weeks because clones like it very humid also if they are clones its best to also cut with scissors right through half the leaf this lets it swet, each time you lift the lid when you have to spray them to keep them hot and humid, still have your light on them 18/6 then when they look strong just have your light above them out in the open, they might droop for a day or so but will then pick up, mind dont have it to hot above 80f is to hot, when they are out in the open start with a gentle breeze with your fan, if you have to keep them upright with some support then thats ok until they get strong, then take away the support, best of luck happy to answer any more Q'S ok,
 
A good indicator of overfeeding nutrients is that the whole plant is generally a dark green.

Are you using Nutes that a clone would be able to cope with?
Clones cant usually handle the same nutrients as a normal plant.

Wait a few weeks till they get a good root system and start to grow a bit before putting them on "propper" plant nutes.



Hope this helps.
 
Yes they are clones... cut about 2 weeks ago and with me for a little over a week can anyone tell me why the roots on my healthiest plant is growing to the top of the rockwool cubes instead of down into the solution?!?!?!?
p.s. the solution is recomended for clone growth about 1/4 strength i think the plants are just a little shocked. . .and 80F is my peak average is about 76F.
 
How many times and for how long are the flood times? Look like over watering.Keep the ph at 5.5-5.8 max.Whats the nutrient ppm and is it fluxing and by how many ppms per day? How close are the lights also.This young they wont need much flooding. I dont see and hydroton or anything around the rockwool cubes which can be a problem as roots develope as light on the roots can kill the plant or stunt its growth.Get the answers and we will see from there.
 
What should my flood times be? or should I utilized a NFT Technique and just keep the water flowing at all times? Ill get back to you when I measure the ppm but pH is good so far. . . thanks for the info
 
one thing for sure, your light is wayyyyy too far away. i keep 1000 watts 14-18" away. sometimes it's even closer. you're plants are stretching bad.
 
My lights are about 12-14" away right now. . . its (1) 250mh and (1) 250hps about how far can I get before Im getting dangerous? the lights generate heat but are not really that hot themselves they are only 250watts each not 400 or 600. . . i did that because its a small space and heat was an issue the two smaller bulbs produced less heat than a 600 mh for veg and 600hps for flower plus its a combo so i get both spectrums. . .let me kno what you think
