No bu it helps to keep them alive longer if necessary i dont look at them after i put them in there anly at 5 ,7 days i open the lid a bit and open complete 2 days before transplant just a 5w led bulp thats it in winter a heatpad helps if you have them on the floor

Hello my friends!

I aborted my clay pebbles grow and put the best plants in the cloning closet and a couple of days later, guess what?

It wasn’t the medium that caused the problems, because i also couldn’t get my plants going on rock-wool. I am still trying to figure out what causes the problems, but i think i am real close now to solving it.

Hello my friends, i am fine and how are you all?

I figured out what went wrong with the hydroton after all and the issue was too much light in the beginning.

I want to make this my bloom room which will remain on 12/12 for the whole time. And i am working on a room for veg. In this room the plants will increase root growth until they are strong enough to go to the bloom room.

In the bloom room there is a lamp that consists of eight Samsung led strips that i dimmed to 220 watts. I will increase the wattage to what the plants can handle. The point of 12/12 is near, which will remain that way as mentioned.

they look very happy! best of luck!!

I’ve downloaded an app called Photone on my phone and used to get a general idea how much light my seedlings were getting calculated in DLI. I found it useful, maybe it can be of assistance to you.

Looks like we had the same issue… as @ifish stated a sec ago to me… anaerobic soil… seems like I get a buildup if light isn’t intense enough… but if I flush totally ruins everything… it’s hard to know what is the initial culprit sometimes… but it seems like waterlogged is the root of issue in my grow :thinking:

Sorry to hear that bro, my problems didn’t come from soil since the plants are one clay pebbles. It took me several months before i figured out that the lights were just too intense.

I don’t know what ppfd but i dimmed the Samsung strips to 210 watts and it was still too much. Not until i hung up two tci strips from a total of 80 watts the plants started to catch on.
