Looking good! You are going to be happy with this method. This is what I use and it’s real how much they say it will boost your yield! I have built custom tables for an ebb and flow system that is amazing. Good luck with yours man… I will watch, if you have any questions hit me up.

I would have to say Sativa since they look long and narrow, indica tends to have more of a short plump leaf blade.

What are you keeping your PPM at? The only reason I ask is because I like most others am self educated grower, and used to keep my PPM around 1000 to 1200 during the flower cycle, and another grower who is way past what I am as far as knowledge and experience told me to keep them around 500 to 600, and trust me I was skeptical, and for the shits of it did it anyways. He was %100 my plants are way more healthy, and the progress is evident. You can tell the plants like this way more. I myself use all Technaflora products, he uses different stuff, but the point is that you might benefit much like I have from using this technique. If you do make the attempt like I did let me know how well it works for you.
