    • Bottom wicking feeders deposit salt at the top of the media. If you top water it can push those salts down into the root zone. I only top water when feeding recharge when using bottom feeding systems. Just my opinion.

    • Where is the salt coming from? The depletion of nutrients already in the soil?

      • Thank you very much for the info. I understand the synthetic nuts can leave salt but is that the same for what they use in the foxfarm soil?

        • Could I work around that by making and amending the soil myself with no salt based nuts? Just trying to learn sorry to blow up the thread.

          • Fox farms uses salt based nutrients. It’s not a big deal, it’s just something to be aware of. You will notice after a couple months in bottom feed systems the top of the media becomes real hard and crusty but if you stick your finger down in the root zone it’s soft and wet. That’s the concentration of salts that have built up at the top of the media.

              • I love mine. I only manicure my tops and throw the rest in here. I give away most of my grow so doesn’t have to be pretty!

                • Hopefully they can get you fixed soon. Neck or carpal tunnel? I had c-4 through c7 fused recently. Got most of the feeling and dexterity back. Shake like hell tho 😔

                    • Glad to be here! I’m not very plugged into the grower scene or tech savvy but I took a chance and became a producer here. I’ve posted a couple questions and gotten great advice so far. I’m so naive that I got scammed by a DGC lookalike account on YouTube…lol. Man, i thought I was sharper than that. Just to be clear…I’m the idiot in… Read more
