Here is what lots of air can do for your roots

. I was root bound in a 5gallon bucket This is from my autoXtreme grow that got me my 1lb plant badge. I had 6 plants and got around 4.5 lbs in 85(ish) days. I have done research for the last 10+ years testing this theory/technique and there are I think 3 or 4 different folks who have adopted this technique here in AFN with outstanding results. Another thing that happens when you use lots of air is that you basically don’t have to worry about root rot or high resivor temps at all. Folks are running their resivors to into the 80’s with no ill effects.

wow that is a lot of air per plant. I have Hydrofarm AAPA45L 20-Watt 45-LPM pump with a 6 port manifold that I was going to use across 6 autopot airdomes. So it would be much better to run that in to just one plant?

Yep I would put that to one site. Right now I have 200 lpm going to my 8 gallon bubble box lol. If you check out @dcat0921 561 gram Mephisto grow. Or @EvilScotsman who did a side by side grow using my technique and won’t do it again cause the plant got too big lol. I have been in Afn for almost 3 years and have been preaching the benefits of max o2. I can promise you this if you do use my method you will be blown away by the results. There are lots of people out there that say to do this or that and that they saw it work real good “on their last grow”. This is something I have worked on for over a decade and have 1000% faith that it is the best way to maximize your grow from genetics to your environment. If you would like me to go in depth I totally will. I have my degree in botany and have almost half of my life dedicated to growing cannabis. I promise if you take just this one little piece of advice it will change the way you think about what is possible when growing in DWC. And trust me I know that your last grow did “ok” just using the waterfall to supply your o2 to the root zone. But if you add air like I am talking about tour grow will look like a Jorge Cervantes cover. I promise.

I'm in. I am returning my 40 lpm hydrofarm air pump and upgrading to the 110 lpm. I'll use that for 3 airdomed plants. And I'll add a second pump for another 3 airdomed autopots I have. That's a shit load of air. Wow. I'd think it would blow all the coco out of my pots!

I cabbaged on to this from @slowandeasy who I think got it from you. I'm also going to try small pots he had so much success with along with the turbo airdomes. I don't really want too massive, but nice short duration runs would be excellent. I'd like to do a run in 8 weeks like the genetic guys said it would be done in
