its hard to take pictures with the macro mode and no tripod my room isnt bright enough and my hands arent as steady as they used to be. but im giessing it was just too wet, or something the little baby seedling i started in a tiny bit of rockwool i squeezed some of the water out and then put more rocks between it and the res so its either gonna be too dry and die now, or the roots will grow out from the rockwool and reach the water before it dies. i took the other one out of the little piece of cup that was holding the rootball in dirt. the roots have completely colonized that bit of soil and i was able to just wrap it in some mesh cloth to keep any bits of dirt out of the res, and i removed the rockwool that i had lining that cup. it seems the GH brand of rockwool stays way wetter than the grodan i had been using previously for years. we shall see what happens.
before i took it out of the netpot and the dirt sleeve.
after i removed it and wrapped the dirtball in mesh. so far it seems to be working, we have a root reaching the bottom of the netpot and it hasnt withered and died yet.
nothing on the other one in rockwool thought. waiting. im thinking its gonna dry out and die if i dont top water it till the roots come out.
