    does supercropping increase yield

    I don't super crop for bigger buds. I do it for canopy management. When you SC the main shoots, the smaller shoots which would normally be starved of light have a chance to push through whilst the SC'd branch repairs. So whilst it don't give bigger buds it does give you more of the nice top colas.

    Flood table question??

    A lid on yr tanks is a must in my eyes, keeps the humidity high which keeps ya roots happy between floods and direct light away so your roots are happy to come out and play.

    Flood table question??

    them I don't know about your grows but my plants are locked down after about 2 weeks, roots have their hooks in and any attempt to move them does damage to the roots, not kill em. All I can say about the hydroton outside the pots to cover your roots, try it without, treble the root mass. Roots...

Over a period of time your mate johnny might get a better yield per grow but vegging for a month, for every 2...

    Flood table question??

    Sorry dude, I was wankered last night and the first thing that goes when I had too much to drink is my ability to comprehend the written word. I think i thought you were saying to contain the roots in ya pots, still sounds like that actually. OP.... don't use coco mats or hydroton outside your...

    Flood table question??

    Sorry mate, got to disagree. Bigger and better your roots, bigger and better your bud. Drill holes in your pots, encourage your roots to spread. Keep your roots covered, they dont need pitch darkness but no direct light. It's all about the roots.

    Question. If MJ roots love Oxygen so much why not..............?

    There are sterile chemical grows and there are organic bacterial grows......... never the 2 shall meet. It's not impossible but neither is an honest politician.

    couple flood and drain questions

    Didn't see that bit. If 3.5" is total depth then I agree..... to shallow. Ideally you want the freedom to go 4-5 inch if needed. With regards to dimensions of bed, it depends if your doing big fella's, scrog or sog and what lighting / wattage / shades yr using.

    Introducing the aerotunnel...

    u might wonna consider switching ducting. If you hold that cheap stuff up to the light you will see thousands of pin holes which if you are venting them lights straight out will be polluted with dirty smelly air. Have you tried accoustic ducting, thicker and excellent noise reduction.

    2nd grow yield :)

    I don't disbelieve you my friend. And I am not insulting your results. My beef is with GPW, it is a false measurement. It does not take into account the 1000W x 18hrs x 60 days. That is the equivalent of 1.5 full sog grows whilst you are vegging. your 1000w light has been burning 12 hrs a day...
