Pennywise Does SOG Pheno Hunts Fall 2018

@Kingjoe83 I soak my jiffy pellets in warm water let them fluff up and squeeze out the excess moisture push a 1/2” into the top with a pencil or pinky finger, place seed, cover over with some loose peat. Make sure it stays moist until the seed pops and watch for tap roots. Once you see roots transplant over to your first pot !
 
Rockwool can hold too much water but I have never had an issue with it. Going forward with trying out DWC I can't really see too many other options than the rooters.
You could use coco. Line the net pot with some fabric so the coco can't fall out into the res and treat it like you would normally with clay pebbles :)
 
Do you pop a tap root before placing in your rapid rooters? Then just mist *until seed pops?
I always just put the seed straight into rooters. Seems like it could be tricky trying to put a sprouted seedling into a plug without damaging it :)

That’s what I thought! I am going to try rapid rooters this time round. My friend gave me a couple to try so figured I should give it a whirl. He swears by them and he’s a converted jiffy puck user!

Thanks buddy

Will let ya know If I end up using them or not . Thanks
 
I've started in rooters and soil then moved to the DWC
Last run I had 15 net pots in a tub, ended up with all sprouted

Started in rapid rooters, after paper towels germ, once they popped I put em in the netpots and hydrotron, worked real well

I am getting ready to give DWC a whirl so we will see what happens.

How much air were you throwing at your DWC bucket? I have the same kit you started with but the pump seems way under powered and I don't think that one air stone is enough.

The Chem is 31 days old, I have Sunday off so I'll take my cuttings and maybe flip then. The girls got nitrogen deficient so I upped the feed yesterday. These plants are gobbling utes like crazy.

Chem #1 and #7 are doing great though.
Oh so sweet!!
Looks aweome!
Flip the switch and watch the magic begin. :goodjob:
