Hydroponic problem?


Question:I"m growing a strain of Ice under a 400w metal halide lamp 24hrs light, Tank ph is 6.48 and have an EC reading of 0.8-1.0 Am feeding with Bio Power + root stim. After 2wks there is no visible signs of growth in cuttings. Air circulation and temp is good.What am I doing wrong?

Answers:
Is your acidity to high? this would be caused by the nitrogen in the fertilizer. the first number try someting with a lower number. like 6-10-10! I'm not sure what you are growing, but if you are using rockwool do not ever let it get dry! Also it's toughto get cuttings to take off in rockwool! Soil always works the best and requires less chemmicals. p.s. If your growing someting that you want to consume I would switch to water 2-3 weeks prior to harvest!


I don't know anything about hydroponics
ther was probably not enough established growth on the cutting
Cuttings wrongly separated? I don't know what you are rooting but you may have to mind the number of nodes you leave on the stem, for the cuttings to root...
