Yer, good info yet again...

I will employ the technique of submerging the pots into a reservoir with the right volme which will contain the nutrient mix and pH balanced water and try and see where i can improve productivity. I don't know anything about watering from below but I will try it and see how these ladies respond to it.

It looks like i should completely saturate the soil then leave it for 3 days, i hope i am reading your post right. Then on the 3rd day do a soil test and see how well the soil has drained. I will wet them up and use a soil moisture meter to measure their drinking rate, kind of thing.

That nug looks really sticky, I got some just like it lol...

The last PPP crop we grew didn't want to stop growing. All the way to the final day it was still growing with noticible signs on a daily basis. look forward to viewing the pics
