Hey All! Been growing in coco for a few years, giving rockwool a try this run. I cloned in the grodan a-ok plugs and placed them into 6" hugos once rooted. I'm using a Teros 12 to read wc/ec. The Hugos read 80% WC after initial soak, which from what I'm reading is the field capacity I was expecting. It's now been a week since transplant and I haven't watered once. The Teros is still reading 80% WC on the side of the block that's on the drain side of my table, which is where Aroya says to place the sensor. Higher in the block is reading 40-45% WC, which makes sense.
The clones look healthy, although I do see some spots on the leaves, maybe a mag def. Dankumhunter's feed chart says the initial drydown should be to 45% WC, which is what I'm waiting to see on the Teros. My question is, is it normal to not water for over a week on initial transplant? My worry is mostly pushing fresh o2 to the root zone through watering. Thanks to any rockwool pros who give advice!
