Hello all I am just looking for some helpful hints in regards to a few clones I have. I am going to cut and paste some of my grow journal so that hopefully the description and pictures of the 3 clones can help someone formulate a course of action, as it is right now I plan on adopting a wait and see attitude.
"-Clone 1's stem has changed colours for the worst. It is a dark black / purple / red. These are the colours it seemed to sort of hit as it changed. When checking bottom of mesh basket no visible roots are showing outside of the basket. General foliage looks to be in poor shape. I will leave this plant for another week maximum to see if it recovers, very little hope of it making it.
-Clone 2 as with clone 1 has experienced a rather disheartening change of colours in its stem. However when checking the bottom of the basket clone 2 is exhibiting a fairly healthy root network. Roots are growing outside of the basket quite a bit, I will be giving this plant a little longer than clone 1 for recovery. Still not overly optimistic for recovery due to horrible foliage and stem colours.
-Clone 3, This clone spent the least amount of time with a poor watering schedule, and poor water. Although the stem has begun to show signs of colour change there is still much more of it that is green. Clone 3 roots appears to be growing well. Roots are pushing out the bottom and new ones are forming on the top also, root network appears a little less extensive than clone2 this plant probably has the highest possibility of survival. Foliage is still green, stem is still mostly green, and roots are growing. Some foliage is looking poor but in general plant looks alive."
Pic 1 = clone 1
Pic 2 = clone 2
pic 3 = clone 2 root system
Pic 4 = Clone 3
So ya basically I have been killing these plants until just recently what are some thoughts on the stem discolouration?
