I pump it down the drain.
Plus I can get 3 crops a year, to a dirt farmers 2, and I like to grow 3 different varieties in a year. |
Thats 3 crops a year from seed right? I grow in soil and get 5-6 harvests a year so I'm assuming you have veg time to wait through for each grow? I use two rooms so the next batch is vegging while the other set is budding so as soon as I chop, new plants are thrown into budding.
Also, as far as buying and disposing of the soil, I recycle my soil and when it starts to get old, I mix it with new potting soil 50/50 and it works great. I know what you mean about being able to just pour the water down the drain but over time thats alotta water and nutrients wasted. I know you're a hydro guy but soil isn't nearly as much of a pain as some seem to think. You grow some great lookin plants and your setup is great. This thread is loaded with useful info, thanks for taking the time.
