going from the water to soil keep eye on them ,what your seeing is stress ,it might take a couple of weeks to get the roots going and healthy again but can be done,check this out.the pic of the soil container is the soil i build,this is the cucumber plant i took out of the hydro,just for shits planted it,it was nothing but baby leaves for almost 2 weeks in the hydro,after i planted it it stressed for 3 weeks and this happened in just 1 week ,that can has a watermelon seed in it,planted it same day took other out ,so proof in the pudding it will workIm pretty sure it was too much nutrients as well I emptyed the bucket last night and put in way less. But this morning it looked worse so i transplanted the bigger one back into rhe bucket i had with soil.
Im hoping it gets healthyier. The roots were very brittle and white when I put it back in soil.
put a seed or 2 in a shot glass,soak with a very little bit hydrogen peroxide for 30 min,then plant that seed right into your soil see what happens,towel can get stuck to root when i grows a tail and sometime peel and damage the fish bones that come from the tail,what i do is put some ro water in a measuring cup about half full ,put in about 3 drops of em1,let them soak,buy morning if those seeds havent dropped to bottom of cup i dont use them,i make my own seeds and under stand not everyone can do this with high price seeds,but the one that drop to bottom are viable and always a game changer instead of guessing
it should,the air bubbles should be splashing the cube not sitting in it,Aqua man works nights i think ,later im sure he will come around,ive learned the little i do know about the water gig from him
it just ro water with maybe a half teaspoon of peroxide ,helps soften the shell,towels work and have for years,i changed that method when i forgot about some seeds i put on my direct tv box for warmth went 2 days,them damn things had not only tails but full blown fish bones with it,i planted the paper and all after i destroyed one,and thought gotta be a better way,so looked into other methods,same with really old seeds i roll up some sand paper and tape both ends and shake them old seeds all around,scars the shell and they crack better,some folk even bite the seed with there teeth
Wow thats not a bad idea then ill keep my eye out for more and try it out
have a buddy in germany,he does the paper towel methoid,but he puts his in a old debbie does dallas porno case hahaha stands the cd case straight up and leaves by his water heater,every damn time the seeds have tails perfect to poke a hole with finger and straight down intro the soil,tail and bones are just as they would grow in the soil and go straight down from there
Wow sounds like he got the perfect setup lol
Im still trying hydro as of right now so any help would be great. Like how do i put the plant and its roots in the rock wool correctly because I think that was one of my issuses with the larger plant. And do i lower the water levels over time. Sorry iv got lots of questions. I just have to be in a more clear mind set
First off thank you. If needed exactly this like a step by step you know. Sobim going to take the one plant i have in hydro and give it a fresh rock wool block then ill start with lowering the water levels and such. Holy crap thanks though.
Okay thats a pretty good idea. Now when you transfer the 10 day old plant from jiffy pot to rock wool how do you place the roots in it.
