Clone help!

[yota]

So i had to leave for a while and i knew my clones would dry out, so i left the lid on to keep them all moist. So when i get back today, they are very moist still and alive. But.....the roots on some that are sticking out are fuzzy. I'm assuming this is mold. So my question is, are the clones ruined? Can i rinse off the mold and consider them usable? I don't know what to do with them. Will the mold be in the plants system and cause problems later? Anyone with experience or advice is welcome. Thanks

what color is the "mold".

 

white little hairs are ok!

i'd say wash em off and give em a go, can only see what happens i guess. should be ok but. maybe take a little while for em to come right. and while they are coming right, take some more cuttings and get em rooted as back up. you could get some triforine, a general use rose spray for killing powdery mildew, black spot and rust on plants just incase you have it come back. also you can use a solution of watered down milk to treat mould and mildew too, see the thread on that to be sure but.

new roots do have some sort of a fuzzy look to them... have a smell.. does it smell musky?

 

like sunny said.. just wash the roots off.. they will most probably be ok.. its a strange place to get mold... a pic would be great

hey,

It sounds like its just moldy cubes best way to rid is as others have said by washing with water or using a spray bottle set to jet stream and just blast the mold off.. depends how far the mold is into the cube thou...

ill get a pic up later today. To the second poster, it looks like white fuzz on the roots themselves. Not on the cube as i can tell.

The mold won't get into the plants system. I think you'll find that spraying a 50/50 soultion of 10vol hydrogen peroxide and water will do the trick fast. Keep the dome off, and wash it good before you use it again.

Pic update! - With a watchful eye you can look around and see what im talking about in these pics. White Fuzz around the roots. Should i start over?

No prob there mate. Those are just fine roots not mold.
