First of all, I try to feed what they need, not creating a buffer. When you look at the pic closely, you see leaf tips curling up, meaning that the plant is protecting itself from radiation. This indicates that the plant is evaporating more than roots can supply. Vpd shows the same at the end of the 12hour day cycle.
Less salt salt in your water gives you a higher root pressure. (osmoses) Going down on nutes is also better for flavour.
Second thing, Because I make my own salt mix (A/B) I like to go back to the combo most people like to start with. More N and less P&K in the last week(s). You think I am an idiot haha?
There are enough P&K's in my pots and in my reservoir. By giving less P&K and more N, the plants eat the remaining Phosphor and kalium (potassium) they don't eat much N sow.......
When i harvest plants my medium and reservoir has the perfect nute mix for new cuttings without flushing. I start with new cuttings a few hours after harvest. This gives me more yields/year. I want to plant cuttings>grow 7/8weeks>harvest>plant>grow>harvest boom boom boom boom. Now time for flushing and playing. ;)
Hey Yaacov.
Yes i use 2 pumps with a timer. One in my reservoir and one in the growing area. After 4 runs I switch back from fabric pots, back to crates. nothing else changed.
The room is down now. In week 4 of the 11e run i had to break down. Somebody had a great idea to put a meter in the waterline from the well that supplied the opticlimate (and some other houses) Now they start searching for a waterleak.
Shit happens but life goes on.
