If you don't try, you won't succeed.... if you throw it out, it will not grow.... which do you think you should do?!
Good luck!

I never put seeds in paper towel. Too risky.

Chances of survival are slim when the taproot is damaged, but still it wouldn't hurt to try.

Root rot DWC?Is this the onset of root rot or just normal staining? The tank doesn't smell bad but I haven't used any temperature controls in this bucket. I am intentionally not giving this bucket ice to see what I can get away with going forward. If root rot, 24 hrs of H2O2 and H20? ThanksRoots. Other

Is this root rot? Can it be fixed?Over the past week I’ve noticed Plant 6 seems to have been stunted in its growth. It also doesn’t seem to be taking up water. All my other plants dry out fairly quickly. This one remains wet for days and days and doesn’t seem to dry out.
Can I fix this? Will it kill the plant?Week 6

Cloning issues; inconsistency, wiltingCloning newb here. I'm trying to root in soil, with a dome and misting intermittently. Some of the clones are doing okay, some are doing not so well (drooping, etc) and a couple are wilting and dying. Any idea what may be causing the inconsistency/failures?Roots. Other

Outdoor ideasQuick question to any guerrilla growers: I have found an ideal location that’s good for light and hidden. But when I dig the soil down about 1ft water starts to appear, any ideas because I really don't want to have to give up the location because of it...
