celtic stone clones

[pipeman]

recently got a gift of 4 celtic stone clones in the mail. when they arrived there were sopping wet, both the cubes and the plants themselves. I think a little mold or some sort of infection took hold, they were definitely in shock anyway and drooped badly.

 

here's a pic an hour or so after they were unpacked

 

I put them under a couple of fluros. the box was well ventilated and the room it was in was airconditioned. I gave them canna nutes at 1.0 ec, ph 5.8, with some oxyplus and superthrive and just hoped they recovered...

 

 

here is a closeup of one of some sick leaves:

I just kept the cubes moist and the ventilation up, after about a week they started to show new healthy growth and I bumped the ec up to 1.2, was letting the dish dry out and the cubes lose a bit of moisture before watering again.

 

 

 

and here are a couple of pics of them today, ready to go in the main chamber (which hopefully I will have finished today)

 

 

and finally, a little root porn, for bongon

Niiiiice recovery there. Coulda been a lot worse with another day in the box....

 

Keep the disinfectant/fungicides up to em, you might find latent infections come up later....
