Yes now for the fun to begin.

 

[GROWant]

Coming up on a week. If the Short & Sweet don't break ground tomorrow I'll end up planting another one.

 

[GROWant]

I might plant two in there. Just to see if I can get away with 2 autos in the same SIP .

I can't wait to see how the pots work out for Autos, did you ad any air stones to the res at the bottom ?

It works the same as an aquifer naturally works!!
It's actually incredibly intriguing

Nope. No air stones. I just aerate tap water and pour it down the tube. My ppm's from the tap are about 150. My ph is 7.1
I never ph.
I do not have any water in the res just yet.
For the first 2 weeks it's watered from above. I let the roots establish themselves first. Then they'll get fed from the res.

It's not necessary to pH with a living soil community. The soil buffers the pH for you.

Ph doesn't matter for this style of growing. The soil adjust itself accordingly. With living organic soil the plant takes what it wants when it wants
