Dr Mengele's Desert Grow

Discussion in 'Do It Yourself' started by Dr M, Dec 11, 2016.

  1. Cloning in our low humidity was the most challenging thing I did related to growing the herb.
    Anything bigger then 3 fingers of stem and a cut down fan leaf withered and died.

    The carriers keep the cubes up off the floor of the tray allowing me to keep the tray flooded without the curbs picking up more water. Keeps it 100% humidity under the dome.

    Dome off for the photo. About 3 weeks to get most of the cubes rooted.
    My 2 cents.

  5. Grrrrrr Planted 16 seeds almost a week ago and got 1 sprout. Son of a.
    I'll get another set in the dirt today and use a different group of seeds.
    Time to take clones off the TTS seedlings and get them in the ground.

  6. YOW! i know that feelin all too well
     
  7. I have been having bad crack rates also, but most of the seeds that I have been trying are 5-6 years old.
    Sucks though that is a lot of money down the drain.
