Yay! Now that is more like it.

An option to topping is to spread out the growth.

Probably I'll have to do that to the left plant but all in all I'm happy with things I'm really enjoying the simplicity of the tupur

this plant in the tupur 1 month ago was a branch on another plant there is a good chance it will overtake my dwc plant that is older there could very well be a lesson to be learned here

all joking aside even the runt in the tupur is waking up this stuff speaks for itself I think with a little work & if you averaged performance out over a whole year this will beat dwc out especially if you're not the sharpest tool in the shed lol

I'll put that to the test soon enough.

I've been playing with dwc for about a year I just started with tupur I'm sure it could get dialed in better it's just a lot more forgiving than dwc where everything has just got to be spot on

Very true.

There's a hybrid approach called SIPS, for sub irrigated pot system. The idea is for the plant in a substrate like Tupur to draw water from underneath rather than being watered from the top of the container. This could be the best of both worlds.

I used to sit the smart pots in a 3x3 e&f tub & flood daily I used 60% coco 40% perlite it worked good & gave me no problems I like this tupur a little better than coco as it's ready to go right out of the bag

Kind of why I switched to promix . tupur is basically the same.. More of a coco base rather then peat like promix..right? I just jumped on here and haven't read the whole thing yet. Is the tupur the royal gold brand.. I used their basement blend and It was really good shit .. I've been thinking of switching from the promix to the tupur seeing it has all the dry amendments added already..

Yeah you've pretty much got it all summed up it is coco based which I liked it's reasonable priced $11.00 a bag pro-mix was another alternative this tent is gonna stay like this the single plant tent is dwc which I seem to be fascinated with but as the tupur gets up to speed it is starting to grow on me

I love the tupur even tho it comes all prepares I still add another 20-40% perlite I'm just crazy about making sure they have enough drainage and room for the roots. But that's just me. I love the tupur. First run trying it. Always grew in just plain coco by Mother Earth , now I don't think I'll be buy that anytime soon.

I'm thinking the dwc plant is more lemon kush dominant my plans for the tupur tent is to get a 2x2 tub & set it up with a res to flood from the bottom & up my plants to 4 in 2 gal smart pots flooding twice a day this is a configuration I've used with very good success in the past & I can re-focus my attention to canopy control & veg times the small light single plant grow I'll keep dwc/waterfarm at least until I can get my grows back on track I've been doing this for awhile & not many problems except with the dwc grows

I feed kinda like that. I take the first half of my gallon and pour in my tray. The smartpots set on. And when it soaks that up I pour the other half gallon over the top though

I pour nutrients on until I get about 1" runoff & by the following day the tupur/smart pot wicks it back up when I do coco I like 40% perlite my largest tupur plant has caught up to the dwc plant by lights out tomorrow I expect it to pass it the entire plant is beefier & within a week the runt will be catching up as well it is waking up you gotta remember July 31st I was snipping these tupur plants off their moms to clone,root,&plant & get this results in 1 month is pretty good

Lookn good

I can't wait to finish my pev2. I'm making bubble hash this weekend. From the blue mammoth auto.

A buddy does this. He floods once a day and his girls love it.

My ladies seem to like my way too. I thought about a drain to waste table in fabric pots. But i like to run different strains at once. And they all feed different.
