Hi first time grower doing a DWC indoor 25l pot and air pump im using autoflower barneys farm wedding cake auto.
Sprouted the seed in a rockwell cube with hydroten pebbles using a glass bowl to create condensation. The seed sprouted fine however its been 14 days and no signs of roots.
I bought a cheap PH meter so I'm guessing I could have incorrectly balanced the hydroten pebbles but I did notice the rockwell cube itself was absolutely soaking wet.
Nutrients - base mix is general hydroponics trio (gro, micro, bloom)
additives - shogun katana root simulator and cal mag , I'm running a sterile system using silver bullet roots.
Any information on nutes dosage for general hydroponics would be appreciated , I've seen alot on forums discussing that autoflowers are quite different and dosage should never be full strength. So starting off small and build its way up to half of its dose throughout its cycle and I'd only need the to use gro and bloom with a cal mag substance then there's the lucas forumla... , I'm a first time grower so I understand it's going to be a lot off trial and error and I'll need to be actively monitoring PH and PPM levels
The solution I used for the seedling is silver bullet roots at half strength of its dosage and the root simulator at full. I've attached a photo of the seedling how do you think it looks ?
Has anyone taken longer than 2 weeks or how long can it survive like this.
Thanks
