Today we dissect the significance of a grower’s strategy on crop results, and meticulously tune into the nuances of plant care and disease management. 

Preparing for the harvest, we're going deep into substrate-specific irrigation strategies for the final days, and understanding the critical water content levels to avoid stress and maintain optimal plant health. Jason shares success stories in cleaning up plant genetics and opens up the discussion on the growing trend of employing old school strains and tissue culture in modern cultivation practices.

We also cover practical insights on sanitizing reverse osmosis storage water, the importance of opportunity cost evaluation, and balancing the technical attention to data with the growers’ instinctual touch. Plus, we shed light on the financial and effort-related elements of using products like hydrogen peroxide for coco, finessing pH levels for maximum yield, and the ins and outs of managing finicky strains.

Finally, we’re talking pest control, as we arm you with the knowledge to combat the dreaded two-spotted spider mites in veg, and share strategies for maintaining a robust and healthy root system—all while missing our beloved host Kaisha. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or a green-thumbed newcomer, tune in as we navigate the complexities of cultivation, answering your live questions with all the expertise Office Hours has to offer.
