first time grow see pics!!

aeroponics and a fogger on the roots are always great...and its kool to be able to check out the massive root system..
this is a pic a week ago..and wish i had a camara cuz they have doubled in size.. best thing is i never have to transplant or worry if my soil is too dry to moist,ph.blah,blah...as long as the ph in the water is good..ur good and growing..nice plants tho man...

I might try a ebb and flow one day. Thats kinda close to hydro.

hay golden roots need air no matter how you grow them in soil or hydro. thats another reason people add perlite to soil mixes not just for drainage but for airation. please stop saying your schooling me cuzz your not. to my knolidge ebb and flow is a form of hyrdoponics. peace

I can't school ya if you don't learn.

Air provides two essential ingredients for the living plant: oxygen and carbon dioxide. The plant uses oxygen for respiration in the same way we do.
Plants don't have lungs to move the air. The passage of gases, whether oxygen or carbon dioxide, is primarily a passive process. The gases diffuse through microscopic pores called stomata, found in Cannabis on the undersides of the leaves.

This is why we use perlite~ Oxygen is the most important root requirement because the roots need oxygen to convert sugar to energy. The more oxygen available to the roots, the more energy they can transfer to the plant.
Air is for the leaves, let your roots stay exposed to air (soil) and see what happens.
Schools out.

Class (Smoking Baby) today is Roots and Air.
Ok this is straight from the growers bible so please pay attention ~
Air Pruning Roots
When roots grow to the end of the container and are exposed to air, they stop growing. The air naturally prunes roots. They can not grow out the end of the pot, because the climate with little moisture and lots of air is too inhospitable.
Hmmm thats why hydro works so well with air. Its a realationship.

Don't confuse noobs . I would hate to see a new gardener get frustrated by listening to non educated advice.

Light damages roots so does air. You want to transplant them before they come in contact with either.

some of this is true... the part about light is. oxygen doesnt damage roots at all they need it to live. your way wrong on that again! and yes you use the fact that the roots are commin out the bottom has a guage on when to transplant.

I'm going to give you a C- for at least pretending to know what the hell your talking about smoking baby. Maybe after awhile I can school you more. Bring your grade up to a C
To be honest with you smoking baby, I just don't think your smart enough to even realize what you even posted. You say the stupidest stuff then pretend it's someone else? Have you not read your posts about how good air is for roots? Have you not payed attention in class when you where schooled on how bad air is for roots (soil). I even took the time to tell you that roots need oxygen.
I'm gonna sit back and watch others tell you to leave RIU like I have read so many times. Yeah I read alot of your postings where you call people horrible names and talk about there wifes, not to mention the names you have called me. Your a piece of work, but not mine!
Namaste~

those some good ass plants might as well transport them into bigger container to get more buds

lol soo i take it your not up to the challenge? dude your a joke. keep reading your book. if air isnt good for roots in soil try and grow some bud in some heavy compact ass soil, and compare it with a plant in the same enviorment but except with more lighter airey soil. wich one do you think will do better? i already know wich one. yeah im an asshole!!!! i know. but i know what im talking about. you kinda do.........just kinda.....ooo how many SUCCESFUL grows do you have under your belt? this will be my 16-17 successfull indoor harvest. not counting outside...wich i have had problems with the deer. coyote piss aint work to well always. later noobie. anytime you wanna do it on live chat i will be happy to make you look stupider then you already do in your own post
