    my next question is i have a sadhu and a Nirvana NL that are a few weeks old and they are soil. i am starting a 6 plant DWC i built hopefully this weekend. would it be easier to start from seeds or to use clones. i know the two plants i have are female because i sexed them already. if cloning is the best way to go what would be the easiest way to do it? i was thinkin fill up some plastic cups with water and poke a hole through some construction paper and stick the clones in and throwem under the 400 watter. would that work? or could i just cutem and stickem in the rockwool?

    400w is too much for them. they like very low light when they are developing roots. try using flourescents or filtered (not direct) sunlight through a window. after they have roots they can go back under the HPS. rockwool should work well. if you want to try the water cloning method I'd use some styrofoam plates and poke holes in them to hold the clones and then float the plate in a cooking pot of water. that way when the water evaporates and lowers the plate will lower the clones down too :] i've been wanting to try that myself. I've seen people have good success with just that, but I'm worried about there not being enough oxygen in the water that way. so maybe changing the water daily or using a smaller fish tank bubbler in there would help
