East Taylormade, not been on for a while. Hows the girls, looks like you got some real plants again!!

Right ppl. I'm gonna be takin clones this time round. Is there any need for cloning powder or that. If so which is the best to buy? I'm gonna buy a propogator n use rockwool cubes . Is there anything that need to be done to prepare the cubes etc?

 

[miwa]

must prepare the rockwool before you plant. Begin by saturating and conditioning it to lower the pH. Start by soaking the cubes or slabs overnight in nutrient solution with a pH of 4.5. To lower the pH of the nutrient solution, use dilute solutions of calcium nitrate, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, or phosphoric acid. After soaking, the pH of the nutrient solution should be around 5.5. When using new rockwool, the pH of the nutrient solution may rise for the first few weeks, so keep a close eye on it. If it rises above 7, saturate the rockwool in a dilute phosphoric acid solution with a pH of 4.0 for 30 minutes, then flush. This will help neutralize the alkalinity and stabilize the rockwool. For best results, run the system and make adjustments until the pH is stable before you start the garden. When it’s ready, drop a seed down into the premade holes provided in the cubes or slabs.

I don't agree with him on that 1st part..planting seed...the best way is soak your seeds overnight...then put it in dirt...takes 24 hrs to pop...

Its not to bd in the tent got a 5 inch fan pulling air out n a 4 inch bringin air in had the two of them taking air out n temps were sitting around 82•f now they're around 75 wit the cold air coming in. Was using tap water to feed n ended up wit a little burn so gonna go back to bottled water see if that helps get it healthy again
