stem rot

[rotteninsf]

High every body. I have been having a problem with stem rot while cloning. I have been using a cloning machine where the stems are suspended in air and misted 24/7 w/a mild nute solution. Also I am doing some in rockwool cubes in trays and hand feeding them the same thing. P.H. is around 6.2-6.4 for both. but everyday I lose a couple to stem rot. I think it has something to do with the strain because all the other strains I have been growing never had this prob. any advice would be appreciated thanks.

All the hydro places have it. Also, using 1/8th strength nutes for rooting is enough. Make sure absolutely no light enters the chamber.

Hey guys thanks for the tips. I will definitely look into the anti fungal and have got to check out that hygrozyme a little more thoroughly. I have temporarily went back to trays and rockwool and hand watering. It seems to be working a little bit better. PEACE.:D :D :D

hygrozyme is really good keeps those roots real white

I use vermiculite and have seen this when the root zone temps get low.
I would try an aquarium heater.
It may be obvious by now that I didn't reserch your cloner.If it has an integral heater I apologize for waisting your time.
