We need advice on our clones!

[1MARV31]

We got a clone on 4/20. We transplanted it in soil.... We had messed up the soil by not putting alot of soil. When we went to put more soil.. Our clone had no roots. Like nothing. Wt does that mean?

Could be many things but basically it was deprived of conditions needed for growth... I would assume oxygen from overwatering as a blind shot in the dark.

Have some pictures and description of environment, media etc and everything you had tried?

Did it have roots when you transplanted? Soil?
lighting? Environment? Photos!

lol. Not to echo the AMan.

When we tested the ppm of the run off.. It was way to high.. 2000+. We manage to flush it. Now its at 247. We stopped flushing. Environment is good. We are afraid that it is a goner. But we will upload pics tomorrow.

Who is we , somehow it sounds scary .........

 

[Mr.GreenthumbOG]

Obviously a team effort. Can’t feed and flush that hard single handed. It takes a village.

Here is our babies!. We r new parents and are trying hard. WE NEED YOUR HELP. And we have another one on the way. These 3 are adopted (CLONES). THE SMALL ONE IN THE BAG IS 4 WEEKS OLD. BUT NO ROOTS OR ANYTHING SINCE WE GOR HER. THE OTHER THREE ARE 3 WEEKS. WE BROUGHT THE PPM DWN TO 200. BUT WE DONT KNOW WTS GOING ON. AND HOW DO WE FEED. IM USING GENERAL HYDROPONICS. GRO MICRO AND BLOOM.

THEPIC WITH THE PLANT IN THE MILK CARTON HAS NO ROOTS. WE TRANSFERRED IT INTO THT NEW ONE LAST NIGHT

First pic underwatering and to much light.

The other overwatering and to much light.

Fill the containers to the top or you are going to have a large saturation zone that makes it very difficult not to over water. Small plants are easier in a taller narrower pot.

 

[1MARV31]

Yea. We had to flush them cause ppm was over 2000. Now its at 200. We are using general hydroponics. 3 series. After we make solution do we just add it to the plants?

Coco, soil etc. Like fox farm ocean forest.

 

[1MARV31]

Oo. Lol..Fox farm soil

 

[Aqua Man]

Oo. Lol..Fox farm soil

Ok then don't add any nutrients because that soil has enough for about a month of decent growth.

 

[Aqua Man]

Only water.

 

[1MARV31]

Okay most def will. Thanks a lot for the help

No problem have a read here... this may help you understand why I say fill the containers to the top and narrower will be better for younger plants.

Also give you an idea of how and why plants get overwatered. Of you have any questions on it just ask

Marijuana Watering, how media, pot size/shape and environment affect it

Ok lots of posts on how to water plants. So I thought I would put together a thread on how different factors contribute to different results that ppl see. This will be a long read based on my personal knowledge, opinions, research and others work to consolidate information for our members. I'm...

When we have a clone, that's usually considered a cutting that has roots already. Usually clones are started in a small amount of media (Rockwool, rapid rooter plugs, or with aerocloners or DWC, etc)
If these were just cuttings, (clipped off a plant and stuck in the dirt), I think you're gonna have a hard time getting them rooted in your setup. If the moisture in the soil wasn't perfect, the end of the cutting will dry up and basically seal off, and then it's a lot harder to get them to root.
Did your "clones" come to you with roots showing through whatever they were grown in, or did you just get a cutting and stick it in the dirt?

Either way, keep the soil moist and don't tug on it to see if it's rooted. Just keep watering, with no nutes and they may take.
