Need help with cracked (dry?) substrate
    #27012856 - 10/30/20 08:30 PM (4 years, 2 months ago)

First time in a 66qt. 5qt wbs and 10qt slightly over field capacity sub (coir, verm, gypsum). As you can see the sun cracked, I'm assuming dryness? I've been misting daily and fanning a little. Any ideas or guidance is appreciated. Bottom water?

Is there anything to this wonky growth pattern?

It looks like it cracked from the tub flexing. When you lift it up and down.

I haven't found that misting is necessary during a flush. If the substrate looks dry, I'll soak it between flushes. Too much misting may impair pinning.

I hadn't thought of that (haven't moved it) but with the best it's generating that's possible. Thanks!
