When they first start, the nutrient level goes up about a 1/4" from the bottom of the netpot, so the bottom of the netpot actually sits in the nutrient solution. As the roots grow down, the water level is eventually adjusted to about 1-2" below the bottom of the netpot. I like it that way because there is no media to get salt buildups in, so I don't have to worry about flushing the system.

If you're considering going hydro, I'd highly recommend it. It's just as easy as soil, but different. Whichever you decide, make sure it's tailored to your application because each has pros and cons in different areas.

Blue Apollo - Flowering Picture Log The idea of this thread is a grow log of sorts, except instead of all those numbers and words and other phooey, it will be primarily pictures! There is another post in here (Pictures) that has the same strain in vegetative, but this thread is all flower. All pictures will be sized to 1024x768 (or 768x1024) for size reasons from their native resolution at 3264x2448. This is the Blue Apollo strain from Joey Weed, courtesy of Hemp Depot.
