All these questions and more are answered by each grower with some details as to why they do so, and what has worked best for them so far, from flavor, to yield and other plant expressions we discuss from the basics up to more advanced inner workings of how plants uptake nutrition and what environments they can thrive in..  Vapor pressure deficit is discussed, and all the growers share their experiences with a wide variety of products, from bottled nutrients, to organic ammendments and soils and a bit of everything in between.  We also have Matthew give us important considerations about bringing in clones or cuttings vs starting from seed.  Tips for getting started, what to look out for, and even implications of buying used gear to grow with vs buying new.  The last half hour of the show we are joined by returning guest panelist @LouGrown on instagram who shows off their 2x4 tent garden and Anvil autoflower as well as a handful of autoflowers in earlier stages. We take a few chat questions at the end and then everyone gives their final thoughts and shoutouts.
