I reuse Promix too, no nutes in there anyway, why not?
4theRecord, my “experiment” was Promix BX w/myco, mixed with perlite. If that matters…
I have a different inkling about these results. Still cogitating…

What’s your conclusion between the two

And here they are, THE ROOTS!!!
Hello guys, i finally got my micro running! and after 3 days there is a nice root searching down for water and many more are coming!!
I guess that having structural support of the net pot touching the bottom of the rez definitely helps the roots to go straight down
Im loving this!!!
A little update day 5 and day 7 (roots finally touching the bottom of the rez) :

So, I’m testing out Jacks 321 for the first time in the octopups. The roots on these 2 plants just started poking through the netpot today.
So we’ll soon find out how they like the new food.

I just used Jacks 3-2-1 on my first Octopup run with Kush Mints. Super easy, and I think it worked great.

FWIW, I have found Jack’s nutes to be a good match with Octos.
In veg I rely on Texas Tomato Food as a rich organic blend that is very friendly to young plants. It literally looks like South Texas Mud and has gobs of goodies to offer hungry canna.
I’m in early Flower now with Jack’s 10 30 20. I’ll phase in 5 12 26 in a week or so, pushing my plants a bit. (Hat Tip @Jetdro & friends for this schedule)
As a side benefit, I have an auto filler system and Jack’s is much less likely to clog up the pipes than the organic nutes I have tried.
(My pal @SaintAliasKnife, says “pond zyme works,” for the same purpose.)
So, yeah, that’s my $0.02,

PS, if anyone is growing Frankenstein, Frankie Mom and her phenos all dig Jacks, Big Eaters!

Thanks. I had done a couple runs in the regular Octos using Jetdros TVF in veg and Jacks in flower, but wanted to try 3-2-1 all the way, since I’m gonna run out of TVF soon. One of those Kush mints is in a regular Octo, the other two are minis. The minis grew just as big and yielded just as much. Have to fill them more frequently (until I build the auto fill system), but I actually like them better because they are way easier to move.

Jacks works fine but not as well as TVF in my opinion .

I believe you, but Jacks is way cheaper and I have a lifetime supply.
