How will this method support a full size plant heavy with buds...

Most common method is replace, but if your growing organic then using all natural hemp string tied into a trellace. Basically hang tue seedling in the trellace amd train it into it. I prefer weaving new shoots into the net for added support

Hey Alaric

Yes that piece of wire is bothering me too. I'm still looking for an organic alternative.

Sure. Almost done with the crapganics run (considering the amount of worm and bat shit that term seems fitting). Not going back to my tubes yet though, first going to do a round of soil with mineral nutes. It's not really a test but it's so easy on my tubes that it's nearly impossible to select out the weaker ones.
Your generosity of knowledge has persuaded me to let these sorry chaps in on another green thumb avant-garde technique.

DWS. (Deep water soil)

All it requires is a 50gal pot full of dirt with 12-6" air stones buried deep in the soil powered by a large air pump.

Grow plant normally, but with no oxygen defeciencies first day of watering. Makes for 16 extra days of unhindered growth on an 8 week flower (if u figure u water bi-weekly)

Also be sure to defoliate everything but brand new growth throughout the entire grow process.

The fan leaf is natures biggest joke, am I right?

I will keep a few tricks to myself but make sure when using synthetic fertilizers you go with HMRI listed organic soil for dat flava

bags are 5.5 pounds
do i really need to show you the deep freezer it's cold outside, but i will for the naysayer's... if you....nay...
Hey! Nice amount of work! Are those bags made by FoodSaver and come on a roll? Looks just like the ones I use ! :)

Just to show to power of hydroless, already getting frosty:

It's always good to try new things. Otherwise personally I'd still be growing in soil and not hydro.

Looks like it is working which makes it a proven method but lets face it, if that clone was in an aeroponic propagator it would look a lot healthier and not have a purple stem and would have more vigorous roots. Still a good effort though.

I personally think everyone will be doing true air-o-ponics in 5 years, when the price goes down enough.

I've started my own air-o-ponic test and so far it's been outperforming dwc. The leaves are coming in twice as fast!

The best part is you don't even have to flush!

Yah, but those new Lanthanide-doped LEDs required for the root lighting are not easy to come by. Also, I heard one needs to use this technique in the basement because of the need for Radon gas in the process (for maximum yield).
It has something to do with absorbing the vaporized calcium.

Have you ever heard of anyone trying the spray method from clone to harvest? What I am asking is you know anyone who has tried DWC along
with adding a spray system/method like the cloners use.
