Started on the first and the first pix were 22nd and these are just now. I see the buds but not very big if u asked me. I think my hydro setup is going to kill this soil run.

Yes search sip there are threads
Sub irrigation huh. Dont really see how getting more 02 to the root that way but would having your pot in a dish of some kind and instead of pouring on the top soil just fill the dish up with water? Def interesting.

What exactly do u mean hydro results? Per plant ? Per sq meter? Per watt?
 
Soil not as cool or fun as hydro.
