hahahahaha! Good times and good people. Man I love this place. I see what you're getting at though bro. So my plan for the current photoperiod run is hand water(2x a day) which will be the same plan for the this Think Different Auto run as well. I had decided to run veg+bloom with no system just to see how it works out at first. Next run though I'm gonna put my 4 flora flex caps to use and set up a DTW drip system on a timer just like you said. That's the best thing you can do with coco!

Yo I wanna throw some root shots down for interest as well. Check it out fellow blades. The roots on this auto should look just like that.

Day 5(from being dropped in a moist paper towel)

Alright we are smooth sailing so far everyone. She's been getting light drizzles of .2EC of veg+bloom RO formula and pH at 5.8 to maintain the cations in the coco.

lmao!

Posting another root shot because I have to now.

This is the exact pot that the Think Different is in now. It was previously inhabited by my DeadHead OG and here are her pearly whites.

Yes indeed! Smart growers pay attention to all. On the farm we are growing together literally and metaphorically.

Hey @justiceman .

You tried transplanting sooner.
Before the roots become rootbound?

Last round the beast showed me that perfectly timed transplants. where it almost seemed premature. Gave it a growth boost over the one left in a smaller pot longer.

I think the ratio of root volume:soil volume. Needs to lean a little extra on the soil volume side. This makes for a nice bank/buffer of nutrient storage and for ph stability.

While I like seeing your noodles bro.
I'd rather see some giant fruits :)

Im pretty sure he's keeping em smaller because the bloom area is occupied.

Sometimes the store around me changes coco which kinda sucks. In the Flower tent I am using Atami Bcuzz coco as that is all they had at the time. It's working well. It was $19 for 50l. Before I had that I used a hydrated block of Botanicare brick coco. Good stuff and way cheaper than pre fluffed coco, but it's more work. Most of the known brands are good. The only brand I would not recommend is Roots Organics Coco Palms. The batch I got was terribly high in salt content.

Indeed fruits are the end game brotha. I think you are talking about the rootbound solo cup girls? Like incogneato said I'm doing it on purpose to keep them small. They are my Bonsai moms/Experimental plants. I don't really have a purpose for them per say. I just want to see how far I can take it until they run into nutrient problems but so far they are healthy.


I completely agree that one needs a higher volume of soil to roots when growing for the exact reasons you stated, but I'm growing in coco with straight hydro nutrients(veg+bloom 1 part powder). In my experience I've been able to grow the same size plants in almost half the amount of coco compared to soil because of the control I have over nutrition. The plants in my flower tent are only in 2gallon fabric pots except the DeadHead is in a coco hempy for kicks.

Here's that DeadHead OG seedling before I transplanted her into a half gal container:D. Not bad for a solo cup but it's gotta be coco haha.
