Transplanting in rock wool
Kianjackstarted grow question 3 years ago
The roots have come through the 3” so iv sat them slightly into the 6”. if flooded to half way will the water still reach the roots at the 3” or should I too feed for a bit? how long will it take for roots to show in the 6” and how will I know the roots have taken successfully?

I’d probably top feed for a bit personally- I use rockwool quite a bit but never used the 6” . I usually just use for propagation.
If you’re gonna do the flood half way up the 6”- I’d think that would be totally enough to wick up the entire rockwool cube but thinlizy has a good point about flushing salts.

Looks like you cut into the 6". You didn't need to do that. All you have to do is sit the 3" on the top. You can flood and drain a 6" cube if you stack them you should feed from the top. You might get away with the flood and drain. Your roots will take and will be good for the full grow. If it was me i would feed from the top drain to waste. That way you are always flushing excess salts.

Tipped, Squashed Plant, Wobbly Trunk - Will it Survive?Plant fell over and squashed against itself.
The base of the trunk is wobbly but still attached deep down.
I've packed soil around the base of the trunk to reinforce.
I'm about 2 weeks from chop and want to know if it's worth harvesting now or if plant/yield will be fine?

Roots at the base of stock above soilJust noticed what appears to be roots at the base of the stock after watering. Should these be covered back up from the light? Does it matter? They seem like strong roots that branched off just below the soil. First time I have noticed this. Thanks for any help or info. 👊

I've always gone from root cube directly to 3-gallon pots. I can't compare the difference with transplanting from solo cups because I don't have any experience. Have any of you found a significant advantage to adding an extra transplant? I figure 3-gallon pots aren't THAT big.Roots. Other

Snapped Plant, should it stay or should it go?Two questions.
1. Is my auto that I snapped salvagable? It's the one on the right side of this week's photo.
2. Should I bother with LST starting out? I'm scared now that I ruined one plant, but I also go through an oz a week due to medical reasons and want to increase yields.Week 1

Soil heaterGot a soil heater today, wrapped it around the bottom of my fabric pots. Is that the way I’m supposed to do it? There weren’t any instructions on the package & I’m not big on YouTube tutorials. Ive also been playing music for them during day light. Do any of you do this?

TransplantingI just transplanted yesterday into 5gallon pots, do they look ok ? I dropped Runtz onto itself. The others seemed okay even though soil went everywhere. Not sure what to do to make sure all the roots & plant are healthy still. Any suggestions?
