You could just use a rope from then res into your pots, that way bottom fed and plants decide when more water is added. Also no electrical stuff needed. Nice set up though, watering sucks
Coconut coir should I ?

from soil to coco seems like a step backwards to me. I’d stick with soil and organic
I have thought about that but I would be concerned about the electric circuit. That room is on a 15 amp circuit. Im running 2 400 watt led's, a fan and the pump when it turns on. Plus the overhead light.

I am assuming it is nitrogen by the slight burn on the tips of the leaves. It could be something else, but yes I switched to just ro water which goes straight to 5.9 ph when I add it to the res.

Everything that’s how they are designed to grow and organic. Imo, try and replicate ideal natural settings, for ideal natural cannabis, that’s what I want
soon I will be using harvested cannabis plants as main food source for my soil, currently using organic alfalfa pellets at 20 bucks for 40 pounds

That's how they are designed to grow? Designed by who?
You think it's a step back because it's not what you want.

Why do you use grow lights then. Use the sun only

You’re first organic grow started on the 18th October 2021 correct?
What previous experience of Organics have you had prior to this first grow using Organics?

depends on which dictionary you use and I believe my opinion came across clearly enough.

I say it’s my first time a lot. I’m old and have grown and been around plants a couple times.
regardless I and my experiences are not meaningful.
maybe less personal attacks and say why what you believe is better
jondamon

that wasn’t a personal attack.
I was wondering what your experience of Organics is to say it’s the way it should be grown if this was your first cannabis organic grow. Sorry if you read that wrong
Plants uptake nutrients in IONIC form, the plant doesn’t know if that ION is from an organic source (broken down by micro herd) or from a salt based source.
