Is that using synthetics though? Or is it purely water? ‘“When you water from the top, it creates pore channels in the soil. Since with capillary mats the nutrients are at the bottom within the mat, it wicks the nutrients from there up the medium as needed,” he explains.’ (Par 5 S1)

With many cannabis production operations in non-traditional spaces such as warehouses, cultural guidelines can be constantly in flux. Even in greenhouse operations, cannabis cultivation requires the careful attention and detail that all indoor growing crops require. For many cultivators...gpnmag.com

Both perhaps? Feed-Water-Feed or maybe just a continuous low EC feed like when using blumats and coco. It would depend on the substrate.

Weekly Flowering Update
F14 of first round.
plus some new friends under another 150W fixture
Long Valley Royal Kush x Diesel
Tangieland x Sour 78
Did some light defoliation of lowers this week and took fans that were overlapping/ not getting good light. Did some more bending / bonsai of the tallest tops and manage to snap one off. RIP.
The new ones are Glue Suede Shoes BX ((Elvis x GG4) X Elvis). These were a little small to start in flower but going to roll the dice a little. The Elvis can get tall and am working in a short vertical height atm. Once they get bigger I will take some clones before week 3.

Top dressed the planters with Dr Earth Flower Girl (3-9-4) Looks like some good root action on the surface, and worms to boot!
Did some more tying down, and some defoliation for airflow. Flipped them to flower Friday. Let the good times roll

You left the plant in the solo cup it appears,why?

It’s a “instatransplant” cup. Two solos, one on inside has 2” slits cut out of the sides. Outer holds it together. Less transplant stress for an autoflower...

Just curious, do I need to have EM 1 in my reservoir? And should the reservoir always be full or should you let it get low?

I think the important thing is to not let the reservoir go dry. Not sure about the EM1, I would just run water in the reservoir, and top dress/water in anything else.

No. Don’t add anything to the res. I’ve been topping mine up ea day as they drink a lot.My tap water has chlorine so I add straight from the tap. In hopes it keeps things clean.

needs more CowMag lol. noticed this on one of the Tangieland Sour78 when I woke up this am.
didn't have time to address it so tonight at lights on I did a little top water in of some ewc/kelp/coconut. got some nice roots going up top. notice on the sides especially where the dry nutes are.
will see how this tea does, I may need to top dress some more dry nutes I guess. these SIPs don't play.

can you show us example of how the cups work? been trying to figure this out myself. I think I understand what you are saying but pics would be sweet. I was thinking if the inner cup was clear it would make simple to check root growth too.
