yellow

[drmota]

just put some clones in rock wool in 16 oz cups of soil leaves are starting to turn yellow other wise very healthy looking albeit they were not a deep green to begin with any suggestions?

does the soil has NPK?

It could be root rot, RW stays very wet and takes alot of time to dissipate moisture, too long for starting seeds as alot of time root rot has time to appear and turn the tap root to mush.
Start seedling in vermiculite or a 1/2 and 1/2 mix of soiless and perlite next time.

if they are UNrooted, make sure there is not much light, i notice my clones will yellow fast with too much light...

these are well rooted and i got them in rockwool i am transplanting to dirt. should i fert at this time?

 

[Guest]

ok...well I am not in the place to give you advice on ferting, because I use ocean forrest mix, and I just plant into that when they are rooted, and I don't feed for a month or so, the OF takes care of it for me... I would though give my opinion, and I say yes, give them a very light feeding...

were would i get this ocean forrest i hear so much about?

you can get it at damn near ANY hydro store in your area... they don't sell it at nurseries or anything, and if your not in cali, xpect to pay $20+ a bag... you can also order it from the fox farm website...
