Last seeds I didn't presoak, just droppped them into the root riot plug. I wouldn't put them into the DWC until they have roots sticking out of the cube and then I would put them in. I wouild keep them under a CFL until they have a few sets of leaves, the LEDs can be a little much for them. Most LED companies recommend 36 inches above seedlings and clones to get them acclimated to the light.Stevehman,
What are your thoughts on the following?
1. Germ seeds in 24hr water soak, then paper towel until root tap, place into root riot. When they break through, place root riot cubes into my DWC tubs with feeder tubes OFF until 1st leaves.
2. Place root riot directly into my system, feeder tubes off, place the pre soaked (or not soaked?) seed into root riot. snip a corner off root riot to cover the hole ever so slightly (my led is still on 24/7 for the one plant afterall).
3. Germ and drop in root riot and not place into dwc till the 1st leaves begin (They would be under cfls till then) .
upon further looking at the wool, I think it came down to over watering with the drizzle. combined with the 1/4 nutes suggestion from the lucas formula. I thought I had the tubes turned down low but maybe not low enough.
The one plant remaining has a nice little root coming 2" or so out of the bottom of the planter though and nearly to the water level. Once that root is well established into the water level I'll look at that feeder tube and see just how low it was on flow.
