UPDATE....:thumbs:

View attachment 148016So sorry if i screw up the odd post here n there ,this is the 1st forum ive ever joined as well ,bare with me though...i will work out how to multi quote ect asap!.​

Ok here is the dinafem amnesia auto in the bucket...View attachment 148017 i soaked her on the 24/10/12 she popped out of cube on the 27/10/12 & went into the cab/bucket on 30/10/12 so if i say thats day1 then she is 16 days old today View attachment 148018 View attachment 148019 View attachment 148020 View attachment 148021she started on PH 5.6(as it always rises a bit & was 5.8 the next day) & an EC of 0.5.... my background water is 0.2 (100 ppm)so she started on a true EC of 0.3 ,which was 10ml of rhizo & 10ml of formulex ... prob a bit tight but ive burned a few by now!... i set the water level about an inch above the base of the net pot and the top of the cube was just bellow the top of the net pot... i think this may have been to high ??.So i sat.....& i waited....& waited ,not a lot happened,hardly any growth at all & after a few days no tap root in res ??. :hot:Ok ,theres another 1 f**ked up again i thought pulled her out of the bucket & shoved her ,net pot n all under my propagator cfl & sprayed with some rhizo & left it.Kept giving a spray every day (mostly around the sides ect)while the blue mammoths x3 & 1 dinafem cheese soaked in some rhizotonic &got put in more cubes ... Afew days ago a checked the amnesia thinking id ditch her & wait for the new girls to show & what do ya know....theres the tiny little tap root JUST showing through the bottom of the net pot lol lol lol.
At this point the mammoths & cheese had not popped so i made a res of rhizo,formulex,a tiny bit of silica,& a tiny bit of cal/mg giving me an EC of 0.7 & put her back in the bucket....At this point she just had her 3 fingered leaves starting(1 is mutated!) & you can see how much shes grown from there in the last few days.....not a lot but she is growing & the roots are looking healthy if a little thin & punny!. Thing is since i put that 0.7 or 350ppm of nutes a few days ago ,its risen to 1.1 or 550 ppm but only a litre of water ish has been drank ??? wtf is that about ?? . the EC has risen 4 points in as many days ?.guess that 0.7 was to strong or maybe something else is going on ?. i dont know .. any advice here would be great... There was some slim when she 1st went into the bucket but i cleaned it good ant sorted the light leaks while she was back in the propagating cupbored & im sure theres none now ? If it was just her drinking and to much nutes then surely her res should be 30% empty to raise the EC 30% ish ???. Maybe im missing something here​

So what do you guys think?. I recon to much as gone wrong already & i should start over so you can all see whats going on from the very beginning & take it from there ?. i said last night about the blue mammoths & how they got stuck in the cube due to me shoving to much stuff on there heads but 2 did make it (if a bit crooked !)& 1 is in the cab now in an airpot ,while the other is in a net pot with pebbles in the propagator with some rhizo (4ml/ltr) & formulex (1ml/ltr) View attachment 148040 View attachment 148041View attachment 148042my DWC vegger lol(i am thinking this idea could be worth expanding on though!)​

heres the other mammoth in dirt in the cab ... plus 2 bagseed that i put in the other airpot as 1 of the mammoths didn't make it & another might be for DWC ,View attachment 148020 View attachment 148055

The blue mammoths are about 48hrs above ground now & i recon i should put 1 in the DWC bucket & murder another innocent virgin auto(the amnesia) what do you good people at AFN think ?

I'll be back later after iv had a good tidy & made my cab look nice & decide then :peace::smokebuds:​
