ironf1stanswered grow question 2 years ago High there, my fellow growers,
of course I have taken into consideration all of your help, from each single one.
Yes, I have elevated the pots and indeed, they are not touchin the water at all.
I was curious about the white puffy stuff, but actually thats just Mycorrhiza!
I got scared first, but it is the fungi, that was inside the advanced nutrients piranha solution, that I have used in the beginning of the grow.
It's in symbiosis with the roots of the plant and actually strenghtens them.
Of course, the roots, which have been air pruned, do not show the signs of the fungi, since it's dead matter.
I have compared the pictures on the net, with me looking through the microscope. It's the same stuff.
Alas, please do not involve me in your little beefs here haha
I enjoy all of your comments and advice, take them in and apply the tips in the best way I can, of course it won't be 100% copycat, that's why you people thought, that the roots were still sticking into the water.
The pots are too big for the driptray and thus, are elevated on top of the tray, instead of sitting in. Maybe it's a designchoice by the manufacturer, because these weren't cheap, but I had to buy some quick, There is 5 to 6cm of space, between the edge of the pot and the bottom of the dray, on top of the one that is provided by the air pot. Next time I will still put the bottom part 1 row upward.
Thank you for you kind help and consideration.
Happy growing and get back to rolling joints here!
