Hi guys,

Got a few clones in rockwool and I was wondering what strengh nutes i should be feeding them? ie how many drops of ionic grow to how many leter's of water etc...

Was just throwing them on my fllod and drain tabile, but then i realised......that is bloom nutes I am feeding, will this make a differance?

just come back tonight and it seems that 1 of the leaves ae turning white, hence the question

thumbsup.gif Agreed - recently, once the clones have rooted through a little, I've tended to up the EC to 1.0 - although I guess that's strain dependent to an extent...

Main thing is to err on the low side I reckon...

i made a 1mil to every litre of water solution today..growth ofcourse to see if that improves them,

Forgot to add...

I try to water mine as little as possible before they go into my system. I've found that it's very easy to damage the roots whilst plants are rooting in rockwool... and overwatering can cause such damage.
