I've got an old friend in Baja who swears by long tap roots and uses a similar method (if he's still kicking). Stoked to see how yours turns out!Prepping our Pyramid Pot
The concept here is pretty simple. I’m betting that longer tap root = more feeder roots. More feeder roots = more feeding. More feeding = more yield. It’s really that simple I believe.
So the pyramid pot will give us a very long tap root. That much I do know. What happens from there is anyone’s guess.
Here’s the prep, step by step:
- coco
- perlite/bokashi
- frass
Repeat to the top where it ends with a layer of coco
Insert 3 gallon air pot.
It’s “screwed in” about 3 inches to the coco below.
- perlite
Repeat bokashi/frass on the perlite then coco and repeat all the way up, ending with a layer of coco with an inch of perlite right beneath it.
Done deal
And how she is in the tent
With plenty of space
That’s it. It’s was activated with Fox Farms Kelp Me Kelp You. Now I drop the seeds for real and plant directly into the air pot. Start that tap root!! Thus no Solo, ie, no tap root impediment whatsoever. It can zoom all the way down.
Guess we will find out together if it works.
great job!
, but i wanted to mention it, in case I didn't.
Thanks Shed!
