Darn, lol, I wanted infected plants. What a thing to ask for, hahaha.
Oh ya, I forgot about about the trellis. I know how that goes. I use them the same way. There ain't no way getting them out of there.
Hmmm, somehow we have to treat the potted roots. Ya, a top soak is the only seemingly way at this time. Is there any way to plug the drains in the pots for like 5 minutes with duct tape or something. Time to get ghetto genius, lol. We need a good few minutes of contact time.
That sounds interesting with your recent experiment. Good going brother, that's the kind of work it takes. Don't get discouraged. Keep on going.
I'm curious about the perlite. I've never grown in pure perlite. I have used hydroton plenty of times. My assumption is perlite drains faster and would need frequent fertigating. By any chance, have you guys played with the drip timing in your systems. Less frequent or more frequent. I'm pretty sure you already know this, but it's easy to get root rot once you let your roots dry out one time on accident. That can happen by leaving a pump or timer unplugged just one time. Or fertigating to far apart. Likewise, fertigating to frequently can drown the roots and also cause root rot. Just ruling out.
I guess the easiest way to rule out, is to ask if you guys have been using the same timing frequency as you did before the cursed fungi from hell. If its the same timing from pre fungi problem, then its not the timing. Anyway, just throwing it out there and the newbs reading here can find this useful.
Btw, I like hydroton. Its good stuff, just a pain in the butt to clean. I use to just toss it and buy new. Call me lazy, haha.
Okay I'm going back to the lab and workshop. I'm getting your stuff ready. Your custom brew has been going since last night. Well I'm actually brewing 4 different concoctions in bio reactors and will mix accordingly tomorrow right before shipment. From what I figured, max brew time is 16 hours for whats needed. The custom hydro tea will be coming in live liquid form packaged in cold packs. I'll also be sending other things. I'll explain them later.
