The tower now has an extra floor made of pool stick
I topped two big buds that reached their 5th node
Just changed the water and i m going out for two weeks
I added some bloom nutrient into the mix as i'm probably going into flowering 12/12 next week as some girls are too tall
All the purple punch died they are fragile
I liked them tho since the girl seemed so compact and small with many buds
I will try and plant another bunch of purple punch later
How do I optimize root space ?
I have a custom hydroponic tower system
It works by dripping/spraying water directly on top of wool cubes
It s my second grow and i notice that once the roots reach the bottom they will spread outwards then stop growing because of the lack of room
A general rule of thumb in botany (which gets complicated somewhat outside of soil) is that the plant's mass above the ground is proportional to the mass below the ground. Pots/buckets have finite space. You can only keep the solution clean and have nutrients/oxygen available to the roots. At some point there will be no more room to grow without choking out other roots. Optimizing root space? Good luck. The plants will find a way to get to where they want to be, sometimes to your detriment.
