i pull a lb every grow,sometimes a fall a few oz short but never far of per plant per 600,hydro i get them going in coco 50/50 clay balls but all ways get them started in soil then hand feed the trays in veg room auto pot set up but i hand feed the trays ,i like to get the root mass nice and large in soil before putting them into coco,it has not let me down once since,i have been doing it this way,so i see no need to change somthing that aint broke,i put them on the tank once there in the flower room,and just keep tucking the tops under the netting for first few week 3/4 then just let them do there own thing they love it,
