Sour Crack Sub-Irrigated (Soilless/Hydro

End of week 2 and the plants are really starting to veg. Will defoliate 2nd set of fan leaves to encourage lateral growth, think that after more stretch towards the end of the week I will start LST. The Octopots are working great so far. I’ll check for hydro roots later in week 3 to see if they actually migrated into the water reservoir. Like I said with the Sour Stomper, having less moving parts in a grow system is ideal. No pumps to circulate water in buckets and to circulate through water chiller. Having the soiless mix to act as a ph buffer grants great reassurance. The instructions for the system also advises keeping a moderate nutrient solution so 1.0 EC is probably where we will sit at until mid bloom. Here’s to hoping for more impressive growth.
