    Natural sugars like molasses Work brilliant in feeding the soil of n which turn feeds the plants. I’ve found no successful way of introducing this to dwc and found it foams froths and makes a fucking mess and simply doesn’t work. You would need to speak with reds about running a full organic dwc set up . Google search carbo load which is a carbohydrate but I’ve also found these to be shite and not show any benefit to the plants 🇬🇧

Never had many problems with feeding and nutes but since I got better and more consistent temperatures my weed has got 10 times stronger than my early crops. Also learning that a nice 2 week flush in rdwc helps the flavours and smell come on a lot.
    Yeah my conditions should be easy to keep consistently perfect. Running a sealed room with an opti 👌🏻

    That was one thing I thought someone might chop in with. If and when to drop/raise temps to help with terpene and resin production.

    I’ve been told dropping RH a bit lower toward the end helps produce more resin but 1. Is this actually true and 2. Does that translate to smellier, tastier and stronger buds or just buds that look better? Is it a myth

    Care to chip in regarding running a fully organic RDWC setup red? I like the sound of this I didn’t think it was advisable to do this?

    I wouldn't use organics in a recirc system, but that's because I like an easy, problem free life lol.

    Anything with sulfer will bring out the smell more. Most terpine based additives are just sulphate of potassium or epson salts. They will be safe to use in dwc. But as others have said stay away from organic stuff. Sugas, humics and so on.

    Add about 80grams to 1l of water. Ideally ro or distilled. You can get sulphate of potassium from ebay. Off elixar gardens. Get the soluble version and not the gradular.

    Feed at 1ml/l. Upping to 2ml/l. From start of true flower till weeks 7 or before. Also avoid when using coco since the potassium will mess with the cec of the medium.

    What can can I do to achieve the optimum quality of bud I can? Any tips or advice?

    And dont just say grow in soil organically because I’ve just decided to grow in RDWC and want at least a few grows out of the system lol

    You let the plant flower until it dies of natural cause's.

    hydrotops are organic nutes with some amazing results, ive used them personally on nft and coco and the flavour has been delicious (as someone already said though, genetics play the biggest part)
    make sure that your humidity and temperature are in the sweet zone when you're using the c02 otherwise the stomata will be closed and you'll be wasting gas, the opti will cool the air but also dry it out, all the best

    So basically, short of keeping temps and humidity consistent and getting good genetics there’s not much I can do lol
