Move your holes to within 1/2 inch of the pots. The spray needs to reach the clones.

I hope you have neoprene sleeves?

11 clones dropped in. Already messed up nutrients weeee! ASAP I will put fresh nutrients in and I'll post some picks. Yes I have nets and neoprene sleeves. 2x super silver haze, 6x red dragon, 3x train wreck.

Three strains at the same time in one screen? I hope their flower times sync for you otherwise harvesting may be quite the challenge. I'm aboard for the ride and I got my corn.

Ya, I hear I will be fine but who knows. This is my first grow. So i'll prob fail. Never the less all pull up a chair and watch me failboat my way down the river.

Away we go!

I like the position of the sprayers relative to the netpots now. Looks like we will have liftoff.

No failing around here; too many pro growers around to offer you advice

ok PH is level at 5.9, fresh nutrients from technaflora. ph was off last night with wrong nutrient. But all is well now, humidy at 53% ouch. Should I just put a few trays of water in the room to get it higher? with 1000 watt on room is 76 deg. nutrient temp is 67 deg. well hopefully the roots get bigger and stronger in the next week and the wilting stops. Well see later tonight and tomorrow.

I see no issue with that RH. Go take a puff and relax for a bit. Many challenges await in the future, but should make for a most rewarding grow.

Johnny.. a few questions/comments:

1. What PPM are you running right now? You don't need nutes until they pop roots. I ran 200 PPM on my run and will run 0 PPM until roots show on this run. (Just saves a little on nutes).

2. Your RH of 53% isnt that bad. When you flower you actually WANT it between 45-55%. I've never read that you're required to veg in 80% RH. I have vegged in 50% RH before and my plants were fine.

3. Make sure your clones are pushed far enough down into the pipes that the stream of water from the jet is actually hitting the clone. (I'm sure it is but I'm anal, sorry)

4. Mine looked "tired" like yours for a short period as well. When they are first starting the clones will look tired/ droopy like that. It's perfectly normal as they try to kick off... but as the roots grow...they will really start reaching for the light. They look fine.

5. What timer cycle are you running right now?

6. Mine popped roots on the 6th day. Something for you to note and use as a guideline.

Good luck!

Agreed in that no nutes are needed if you have no roots to absorb them. If you want to add something, a vitamin B-1 solution for plants can help encourage root development. Also, pH is important when you have nutrients flowing, but if you just use plain water, it won't matter much. Wet, dark, and warm are the ideal conditions for root stimulation and development. You may want to consider not running any nutrient chillers until you have some good roots going first. What do you think 420fied?
