Holy frickin' crap!
My jaw dropped when I opened up both tents! It seems that the plants doubled if not tripled in size over the last 10 days! I mean, just by looking at the hydro plants, if this change in size doesn't make you want to try a hydro setup then I don't know what will!
The plants are huge, the fan leaves are monstrous! It looks like the CO2 played a big part in it, the biggest leaves are bigger than my palm, and they're beautiful!
6 plants in hydro drank around 45-50 litres of water, they almost emptied both reservoirs which I didn't expect.
In the time that I was away, some side branches got so thick that they started to "consume" the bendy plastic things that I've put on them to make them bend sideways! Hopefully I'll be able to remove all of them without making any additional damage.
Aaand that's the end of good news. The plants in fabric pots didn't have that much luck (?), because the irrigation system kept them alive but it did not work as expected and this is probably due to the residue from the organic fertilizers. I'm still trying to figure out what happened here exactly but I'll probably won't be able to know for sure, but from what I can see, there was a leakage while I was away. I'll try to revive and bring the plants up to a healthier state!
I also need to defoliate HEAVILY because the amount of foliage is bonkers!
Let's see what I can do!
XOXO

@GreenBuzzNutrients, hi Mia, thanks for the heads up. I've tried to use the fertilizers in my hydro setup on this grow for a week or two but even if I added additional pumps to make the water circulate in the res, the result was that the small roots were full of the organic residue which made it hard for the roots to absorb nutrients from the solution. I've ran this test side by side for a week or two and I had to change the nutrients in the reservoir to synthetic ones when I saw that the the small plants in coco+perlite exploded with all the great products of yours. I'm currently in the fourth week or so and have a lot of updates to make :) But all in all you were right, organic nutrients don't work quite well in hydro but from what I can see, the nutrients work excellent in coco and soil and the plants really dig the fertilizers and additional products :) 🤟🏻😎🤟🏻
Green, yellow, purple, and orange -- You've got the full rainbow! Beautiful looking plant and a wonderful contrast on your photos/editing. Love it! Enjoy 😁
