Can DWC compete with Ebb and Flow?

hepobermanstarted grow question 5y ago

I've seen incredible growth with flood and drain systems using giant netcups of hydroton but the upkeep is a burden. Can DWC compete in terms of yield and quality? The simplicity of DWC is very appealing to me. Anyone tried both?

May have too many plants in a small tent. Should I attempt to grow them all, or cull the herd?I've crammed 3 young autoflowers (all different cultivars) into a 2x3 tent, which I now realize is a novice mistake (first grow! 😄). Would you... 1. Keep growing all 3 to maturity, use LST to manage size 2. Sacrifice one plant for the good of the other 2 3. ??? Thanks!

Week 3 Flower, High RH So I held off buying a dehu to see if the mini split in the room would be able to keep up. Resounding no lol I've never had RH this high into flower (~70-75% @ ~3w flower). Should have dehu in a 1w. Am I safe to keep going for another week like this or should take action now.
