Just finishing a crop in an eco-system vertical grow unit, and i am quite impressed at the final yield, for the first attempt. Still drying, so no figures, but it seems plenty compared to previous crops i've grown.
Thinking of my next crop, and the main thing i think I can improve is the medium. I found the lower plants were sitting in more damp conditions than the upper ones.
I had ordered Cuttilene Maxxima slabs, but the shop sent me Grodan Expert instead, couldn't wait another week, with 120 cuttings ready to transplant - I knew small size was the essence for this system.
Don't know if the Cuttilene slabs make much difference? I am told they are designed for vertical so maybe they wouldn't have the same uneven delivery problems?
However, what I'd like to know here is whether there is a Coco alternative? I read a bit about COGR slabs, but not sure if they would be useful in a vertical system?
The slabs hang lengthways, nutrients are fed from the top, and flow out of hte bottom, so if i get the right flow, I imagine i can get some results?
Anny ideas, advice, suggestions?
Cheers,
Ch.
