just make sure it's not like every car within 10 miles is ruined, except mr bad neighbours ha

@ tip top, thats me got hydroton today so im just about to start my dwc bucket mate so expect me to bombard u with questions real soon. first question(s) ive got a two week old clone, just a little one bout 3" high in rockwool in a pot of soil should i use that straight into the hydroton or should i germ a seed and pop it into rockwool and then put it in my net pot? and do i have to add nutes straight away or is it like soil and only need water for first couple of weeks?

right, i've never done owt but clones in rockwool so cannot comment or recommend the seed aproach. not sure about the small plant, worth a go i guess unless you're in need of flowering that one out. as far as i'd be able to tell, pull the thing out of it's tub, and gently gently break off the soil, ideally under running water not hot not cold ph'd water, until it is as clean as is possible, and then depending on the roots, you may be able to get it in a net cup (either by working the roots through, or by cutting the cup into say three thirds, getting roots out at edges and then gaffa tape together (careful that it's a firm tape job else the pot could implode and fall through the hole) else i'd assume you'd need to trim the roots a little and just stuff them in amongst the hydroton. what size pots are you going with?

im not gonna bother up setting my little clone coz its a 'pure gold ' strain and its the only one left within my circle of growers and i would like to let it get big enuff to take more clones from so ive decide to pull a few clones from my well established trainwreck clone( its around 12" to 14" high), ahm gonna take 4 clones from it tonight and just pop them in presoaked rockwool( pre soaked in water/ seedling start) and ill jst put them in my propogator for a week till i see some roots and then move them to dwc and soil. i'l choose the best lookin for my dwc.

I was supposed to go on a date last night, and the girl I was meeting called me this morning, very upset that I didn't show up.
I said, "Sorry about that, I suffer from premature ejaculation."
"Well that's very unfortunate," she replied, "but if you were embarrased about something you could have turned up and explained it to me."

"I wasn't embarrased about it," I explained, "I came in my pants on the way to the restaurant, and suddenly didn't see the point in paying for your dinner."

My wife said to me, "I've just heard some great news, apparently the police know who the local paedophile is and they are going to arrest him tonight."

I said, "That's brilliant news. Let's celebrate by moving to Australia."

anyone know anythin about the little net bag things for seedlings an clones its like a little net bag with soil in it
iv just got 2 clones of whats supposed to be e cheese an there inthese little net bag things with roots burstin out all around iv left them in the nettin an re potted them into coco but am now thinkin maybe i should have taken the nettin off ?
also anyone know a way of telling if its e cheese it is a very strong red coulor on the stems and the majority of leaves have double points which i beleive is a sign of the echeese

 

[tip top toker]

the roots should be able to penetrate through the mesh no trouble, when i took mine off i snapped the root ends off

[ultimate buds]

after readin up on them there suitable for soil coco an rockwool so ima get me some tomorrow for future clones

 

[las fingerez]

if anyones interested in keepin one motherplant but several different strains iv been tryin a few things and iv taken cuttings from my cheese and my strawb thai an then cut clones off my bag seed an taped the cheese an thai cuttings to the bag seed plant an after 2 days there joind to the bag seed and continueing to grow so i know have three strains in one plant an iv markd each join with a coulord twist wrap so i know which part of the plant is which strain iv done it with males as they were gonna get chuckd anyway so i thought id use them for experiments
iv also got sum small rockwool squares sliced into them half way an then put them over the branch i wanted to clone an taped it back together an then waterd the rockwool each day an its rooted whilst still attachd to the plant

They're awesome, we start off just about all our plants in them and they do really well. We've grown some of the same plants, some in and some out of the pellets and the ones in the peat grows way way faster
