Thank you for the information @Kindsoil. We didn't have any issues using it on the first grow. We did a lot of waters mixing it 50/50 with distilled. I will watch closely since we only have chemical ph adjusters.
 
we were asked this i believe a bit earlier in this post, id suggest looking at the system that grower had mentioned to see if its the same.. wicking from the bottom with our system isn't something i personally recommend. As i stated with then a drip top feed is fine but keeping the hot soil soaked isn't going to be beneficial. you want your media to properly dry especially with organic growing, the media needs to properly breath and wicking keeps the media too moist generally


Wick system maintains optimal moisture in the soil throughout the grow. In organics, keeps microbes alive and thriving. I've always run wick beds under my organic soil. I've read the lack of dry cycle is bad for root growth but I haven't seen that. Dense roots, gluing the soil together.

I'm testing a couple other kit soils, and my own super soil mix soon. I can't speak for wicking under super soil yet, but for standard water only organic soil mixes, my plants stay moist the entire grow. I'll hold off on kind soil since you don't recommend it.
 
How about a Friday update! Both of the babies are enjoying life in the @Kindsoil. The Auto Euphoria continues happy and content. @DutchPassionTony seeds are fantastic and im happy that my first try with one has begun.
The critical Neville haze has stretched her wings as best she can and looks good even if she may be stunted.

There is a noticeable improvement in the leaves. The led's are 26 inches about the babies. Both given about 6oz of water each. My standard mix of distilled and bubbled tap. Worked last time so i will keep it up for now.

Lets get this place decorated green!
