come on people help us out im runnin out ov time my tap roots have come through when i put them in to the rockwool cubes do i give them light straight away im puttin the cubes in my prop do i have the prop lid on or off ???? help !!!!
make sure ur rockwool cubes have been soaked in ph 6.5 water for 24 hours, make a small hole just bigger than the seedling in each cube, place each seedling, taproot down into the hole and pull a few strands of rockwool over the top so they are covered. keep the rockwool cubes in a propogator or on a plate inside a plastic bag and keep them warm and moist until you see the 1st set of leaves appear. then put them into your wilma and under the light, but keep the light at least a meter away and gradually lower it over a week. hope this helps mate
oh and keep the prop lid on until they you transfel them to the wilma
