Hello RIU, I've been hangin around here a little bit for a while now and made a few posts here and there. As a grower I grow mostly organic and I use Subcools Super Soil with an occasional amendment from General Organics. I have to use my soils over quite a bit and if I didn't have to do this there would most likely be no need to amend. I top dress with basically the nute pak in smaller quantities of course. I feel that by having to reuse my soils its not that much of a hindrance just as long as I keep in mind that as pete deteriorates it goes acidic and your mix requires more dolomite to compensate. Its just not the pete. There' other items in or mixes that break down in different ways and in different times. There's a lot of good, good stuff in the GO line of nutes. Not going to dwell on it here but check it out sometime if you're looking for a change. Here's a pic what I got going right now. This is a 25 gallon heavy duty feed tub with tubing going down into a bed of lava rock and landscape fabric. The uprights allow me to also inject air directly to the roots throughout the tubing. I also feed and water through these tubes. Usually what I do is after a watering I turn my air pump up on high until I can't hear any more bubbles then I back off with the air. I am watering 2 gls every week right now. I also have a couple 3 gl side lighting girls goin. I don't expect a huge yield from them but no worries I get a consistent 9 out of my planter from the 3. Looking forward to the day that I can do this with a little more room. I grow with a 400 Lumatek using Hortilux eye bulbs in a relatively nice hood. My system could be taken larger very easily. If I did it I would definitely put a 1K over one plant in these 25 gl planters. The numbers would be amazing. I'm currently calling this planter set up the RootFlow as I feel that my quality, weight and ease of maintenance with this set up is probably my most consistent results that I've had in some time. One thing I am doing different this cycle is being very aggressive with my interior fan pruning. Trying to maximize my interior bud-sight light exposure.
If anyone is interested has something like minded they'd like to share feel free to post in here. Huge fan of all things TGA and I've been told that I was an unofficial/self proclaimed/mad scientist of weed for a while. So I relate closely with yall nerds. Have a good one!
