Don't let her die. Guenni pig it! LmaoThanks Stunger! I'm sure they'll be yellowing later in flower though...it's like my trademark.
It was an experiment at @Regrowth's suggestion to see how long I could keep it alive in the solo cup with no modification. I'd say last time it looked healthy was back around 190 days, so that would be the outside time frame. That said, it does have green on it so maybe I can cut it back to the green and see if it will regrow from there!
Thanks, they're always fun to have a gander at.
Excellent!
I truly have no use for it (as I mentioned above) but your suggestions are all spot on! I do have a mother Candida that I replace about every 6-8 months so I don't have to bother with root-pruning and replanting, though that does work perfectly every time.
Come to think of it, maybe I'll see if I can recover this one with a root prune and fresh FFHF! The next experiment perhaps? I wonder if GDB and stardawg approve...
There's another good suggestion! Though I don't have enough room for another 1 gallon pot at the moment. Too many plants/cuttings on the desk at the moment.
Damn , Shed can you beat that LMAO !Here are mine.
I've not watered them for a couple of days at times.
They have never had dark cups over rhe roots
Starved them
Had very sporadic lighting and darkness periods thanks to loadshedding
Had spider mites ravage them
Had then under poor cfl lighting
I'd say this was a good stress test for genetics. She won't hermie. Great stable genetics to breed with.
I love your confidence!Is gonna work... I have zero doubt.
Thanks Carmen. I hope your Monday is coming in smoothly!Happy Sunday Shed and friends
Har, will do Mark!Don't let her die. Guenni pig it! Lmao
Thank you Nev. The sun is heading down here and the plants are tucked in the tent!You’re just busy busy busy. Happy Sunday and day of rest Shed.
I couldn't even get close.Damn , Shed can you beat that LMAO !
I can't tell you why but 100% sure it won't. Some will though:I got a Q , if you plant those roots will it grow a plant ?
Nah. As CL will tell you (repeatedly in different threads if necessary), cooler water holds more oxygen:Im usually around 68f on feedings and waterings. Should i bump it up the temp to 70f shed?
Ok so I was just really amazed by the difference in O2 between water temps. And I personally experienced root rot from my own lack of info so like my Uncle Shed I wanted to share wealth. lol CLNah. As CL will tell you (repeatedly in different threads if necessary), cooler water holds more oxygen:
"Did you know that water at 68 degrees has 10 times more oxygen molecules than at 73 degrees."

And it got better every time you shared it!Ok so I was just really amazed by the difference in O2 between water temps. And I personally experienced root rot from my own lack of info so like my Uncle Shed I wanted to share wealth. lol CL
So what is the ideal water temp for feeding?Ok so I was just really amazed by the difference in O2 between water temps. And I personally experienced root rot from my own lack of info so like my Uncle Shed I wanted to share wealth. lol CL
Between 68-70 anything over 73 can lead to pathogens (root rot). CLSo what is the ideal water temp for feeding?
(BTW, I'm going to need to borrow someone's temp gun.)
You can always use just a regular thermometer and be old school CL.So what is the ideal water temp for feeding?

And how about rooting in water based cloners, have you found ideal temps there?Between 68-70 anything over 73 can lead to pathogens (root rot). CL
I haven’t had any experience with them but it would seem probable at the same temps seeing that’s the highest O2 temperature. But that’s just speculation as I have no experience with them. CLAnd how about rooting in water based cloners, have you found ideal temps there?
I run an aquarium heater in my cloner 78f plus Z7 and Hydroguard is added to keep the pathogens down . I’ve done clones at 72f also and see none are any quicker than the other at these temperatures. I have a cloner going now top signature and it’s ran 78f the whole time . We found out the little warmer water at 73f makes them explode in growth .And how about rooting in water based cloners, have you found ideal temps there?
Why do you think that the warmer temperatures makes the growth explode? I would’ve thought the more oxygen molecules would be more beneficial and find it interesting it’s not the case.
