So it’s been 5 days since we moved from the turbokloner 144 to the 3x3 trays here they are after the move

And now five days later tonight

And from here

So the roots are sitting on cotton batting
The root zone is simply covered with panda paper.
3 x a day the pan is fed from the floraflex 2.5 rings down the top of the cups , over the roots trickledown
To the batting filling the pan 1/2 full then stops feeding and drains back to the Rez. There is no medium just air.
No soil, no pots, no grodan, no buckets of water no coco just a wet damp batting mat in a dark moist environment for the roots surrounded by nothing but air!
Crazy huh look and see for yourself..
5 days have passed with in flower.
12/12 lights
Those roots see 12hrs of air no water... then feed top down to pan
Pan floods and floats The batting.
Roots move grow spread matting settles back to bottom. 3x each day.
GH 3part nutes + the gh required amendments all liquid. Ph 5.6-6.0
Then reset daily back to 5.6

When it comes to going to flip to flower. I can not stress enough that
Having your plant all pretty much the same size (potential) and as well the same pot size makes water feeding sooooo much easier by hand. It really removes the error of over waterfeeding which can immediately shut down the fast paced growth of a plant 🌱.
2-3 days between water feed seems just so right to me so far. It allows for rest enjoyment of the ladies and
Grower duties. Just a thought 💭

Well it’s all gone and the space will be sanitized with bleach water for good measure. The grow did excellent but was unsustainable...
We don’t do mold & plant support was a critical issue as well the poor quality T5 flowering lighting will always bring below par results. So this grow journey of no pots soil or netpots come to a close. It was pretty awesome being able to trash that grow!!! 16 HB finest pheno strains ....
I’ve took 4 cuts of each strAin
These next clones going back to pots for safety.... we will do a little veg after the room trim and great white application going from turbokloner 145 to pots.🌱👌
Peace love all the best
To you and your Grow 😊👍
