Ill take a stab at these questions.
with the res is it just for water or would you feed the plants nutrients this way also?
The reservoir is just for the water. Its purpose is to keep the perlite moist, which, in turn, will keep the soil in your pot moist. To add nutrients, you want to remove the pot from the SWICK reservoir temporarily, somewhere where the run off can run out, like the bathtub. This way they get fed but you dont get any nutrients in your water reservoir.
I dont really know if feeding from the reservoir would even work. It seems to me that they would be getting a constant stream of nutrients and all I can picture are burnt leaves. Of course, I could be entirely wrong.
Now I have a question for you, Mr. FeralA9X. Is your THC bomb an auto or a photo? Im curious because I am growing a Bomb THC Bomb, an autoflower, currently. Im gonna go have a peek at yours!
