So strain and environment/grower dependent. I just wanna chime in and say what one brand of fabric root pruning pots gallon or size amount is can be vastly different from another brand. For instance...around here in my area...the hydro shops sell Smart Pots...Geo Pots..and the cheap grey Aurora...

Not to change the strain subject here but we are talking about strains in general somewhat....I smoked some of that Death Bubba recently and almost certain it was grown by GML himself. A friend from Canada brought it down. Just a little bit. It's not really hyped...but it deserves to be. Wow...

Jesus thats low pH. Even for rockwool. But your results speak for themselves. Goes against everything I thought I knew as well. Your rooted cuts are just silly healthy.

Mother nature also didn't intend for cannabis to be grown indoors under lights and artificial....everything. I've noticed when I usurp what mother nature intended but still pay attention and adhere to her basic "rules"...i get more...better...faster. Don't get me wrong..heavily amended peat...

Do you top them early on or at all? Whats final finish height from top of pot to top of plant? Those pots are nice. I should use mine more. I literally have about a hundred of them stacked inna corner of my basement. They hold close to a gallon of medium I believe. Like 3/4ths of a gallon.

Do you find that those 5 1/2 " square nursery pots (with the tag label holder dealy) are ideal for final pot sea of green growing? I got a ton of those lying around. Nice crop.

If a grower leaves the cuts in the propagator until you get roots like this..you can literally shave days or weeks off your veg times. Alot of times when you take the cuts with just a couple roots poking through the plug to the first pot up..they can go into shut down mode and can take days for...

Ive had vigorous rooting strains do that as well. Using root promoters that are similar to +Life. They grow such a thick mat that it actually pushes the plant and root plug (any root plug too. From rockwool to Root Riots..Oasis..Jiffys. Etc.) up out of the tray insert cell if you leave em in...

This is what its all about. Once you lock into that groove..lookout. Plants love that consistency as well and will reward the grower accordingly. I change up my variables every now (the little ones - out of boredom really) and again but the basics of what I do is always there.

To be honest...I ran out of V+B and recently and just went down to my hydro store down the street and grabbed good ole Canna Coco nutes and another load of Canna bricks. V+B is only sold at one store and its way the hell out of town. Its good but its nothing different and really not all that...

BINGO!!! Good post and truth!!! I foliar spray in veg and early flower every 5 to 7 days religiously. A mix of fulvic acid, kelp, soy protein hydrolysate (amino acids), and yucca for a sticker. This is my rocket fuel. And my secret sauce (not a secret at all) to keep my ladies short..bushy..and...

Make your starting water 0..4 ec. Whether you have to get it there by adding calmag or subtracting with r.o. Then add the base at 1.2. You should have 1.6 ec total. Try that and see what happens. Watch your pH as well. Keep that in the sweet zone as per medium requirements. For coco coir I like...

I never needed to add calmag. Using 0.2 ec (120ppm) tap and 1.2 to 1.5 ec (600 to 750 ppm) of any base nute. Veg+Bloom RO version included. With any medium. I go heavy with the amino acids though. Aminos chelate calcium bigtime.

I thought Veg+Bloom already had calcium magnesium & iron already in the powder?

My tap is 0.2 ec. Ive ran all the hydroponic nutrient brands in coco coir pots..rockwool..and peat mixes and never had to use a calmag supplement. Most of the brands..especailly coco specific nute lines..have a ton of calcium nitrate and magnesium already in them. I did have to bump up my tap to...
