    Couple updated pics. The middle pics are from the mother I put in 2 weeks ahead of the rest. Frosty but the tops are pretty small and she looks close to done at 6 weeks. Not really looking near as good as the 5 gal bucket grows I've done. Frosty adn sweet smell but the tops are no where near...

    Getting some pretty good root growth in some of the reservoirs.

    Already figured out that once you start aeration that you shouldn't stop aeration. One sip that had the reservoir full of roots started to brown a little. Added another pump and all 9 now have airstones. I lowered the pH to 6 with nutrients and upped the levels to half strength. Fingers...

    Much better parking lot at the new place and I like the layout. GC3 that is.

    New location? When was this? Haven't been to genotype in a few months. EDIT: never mind, that is the new location that I've been going to.

    You'd be better off at genotype. You'd have to go there and talk to some cg's and have them bring something for you at GC3. Every time I've been there no one has had clones for sale. Every time I've been to genotype they've had clones but you have to get there early for the most sought after...

    I'm not sorry I'm a member! Edit: oops my card ran out, looks like I have to go up today and renew. Now this explanation was well and above the fake news comment. Thank you! Not everyone is out to get you.

    I read that GC3 got a letter to cease and desist?

    You quoted me and asked a question from one of my posts and it went on from there. Look up in the thread and you should be able to follow it. Or maybe I was overmedicated adn confused one of the posts. :)

    You can overwater if the roots haven't spread enough in any container. The soil gets too moist, reduces air and drowns" or suffocates the roots. If you leave a top off or don't mulch over your sip the wicking action leaves the top 2-3 inches dry. In my sip you can top water and the excess...

    Not if there is enough moisture or humidity in the res. running totally dry and letting the media dry would be detrimental. Roots can stay alive in air with the right amount of humidity. It'd be risky and i wouldn't do it if that's what your goal is. Everyone has different goals.

    Perforated, mesh whatever. I use the same box. And i've top watered while htere was water in the res. your roots must not have been spread enough or you are using a top to keep it moist up to the top of the soil.

    Ya, depending if they are growing thru the mesh or all coming out of the columns. If they are touching water they should be able to keep the part in the air alive. If they are thru the column and just lay on the bottom they should be good if you let it get down to 1/4" or less. Not really...

    The whole reason YOU use sips. They are pretty versatile. They can be used any way you can use them if you just want to be able to leave for an extended period. You don't even have to use the reservior unless you are leaving town, You can use them just like a 5 gal bucket and never fill the...

    Then you overfertilized. You can flush by letting the res dry out and watering thru the top to drip into the res and siphon the water out of the res daily and water the top daily for a week or so if you fertilize that much. Use an airstone so a lot of the roots are in the res. Then you can...

    Planet natural? Doesn't seem like a good source to me.

    They don't "reduce vigor" in plants. That's just false. They feed off dead matter and turn it into fertilizer. Where'd you hear they reduce vigor of plants?
