Ebb & Flow Sea of Green 600W

Thanks for comments, guys!

I wanted to do a test with SOG in 10cm RW cubes straight on 12/12.

Uniformity is thanks to master mother keeper @metaphysical that provided absolutely brilliant clones of Hash Plant.

Some times it is problematic to get 100 of proper clones so uniform. You need to have mothers in good condition and it is time consuming to work with so many plants. That also adds complicacy…

I’ve done two more runs using this E&F setup but had to move soon after and dismantle the cabinet.

It was very lucky batch. No problems, good temps, healthy clones (damaged leaf you can see in first row of plants are mechanical damage by strong oscillating fan).

It was I think only about 420g of well trimmed and dried material which translates to 0.7 grams per watt. Maybe I’ll start topic about efficiency measures. GPW is not probably ideal way to measure performance of Sea of Green which is very fast (few days of vegetative state). It would probably serve better to use GE index for efficiency to take time into account and use grams per kWh.

I don’t know how to say it, I was very satisfied with the process (not each batch goes this well) but at the same time I had probably higher expectations about yield.

There are also few things that need improvement - like that foil cover. I’d seek other ways to prevent algae and keep moisture in root zone. Also cubes were too packed to each other not allowing water to flow through them freely and this was extending time needed to irrigate whole platform.
