Root Pruning Marijuana in the Current Culture Undercurrent System

Root Pruning Marijuana in the Current Culture Undercurrent System

How to root prune marijuana in the Current Culture Undercurrent System. I only do this 2 – 3 times during the grow cycle depending on the roots. Now the reason for doing this is because the roots grow so fast in the system that they can clog the return manifold and the joints slowing / stoping the undercurrent. This also promotes lateral root growth. Remember to always be sterile, wear gloves, and use clean tools.

    Posso podar as raizes na flora também?

    Nice job man. I do this to my clones in the ez cloner. They will go from 5 or 6 long roots to a big puff ball ready to launch everywhere. If done alot it can even slow them down a little if ya need more time in the cloner. Can I ask what base nutrients and what ppm ”on 500 scale” your useing cause your girls like perfect. Super healthy.

    I’ve try to try it in my system but I can confirm that the roots will grow into the return manifold and possibly reduce the flow in one or both of the return lines.

    Nice video, thanks.

    I grow plants out of an aero garden 50 slot seed starter. I took out the lid containing all of the seedlings and transplanted them some of my plants. I was high and forgot about the seedlings and left them in open air. The long roots dried up and died. I put the starter back in the nutrient solution and in a week there was huge fat roots growing in all directions. No I am all about root pruning.

    my bro in Montreal had the very first one off the assembly line and he says never ever touch your roots the more the better the current culture it’s made not to plug up

    my plants are clogging up my hydro system totally so its starting to over flow the water , i dunno what to do , i have those regular wite tubes , the roots have grown so thick and both ways they are clogging up the water passage , i dont wanna hurt the plants by trying to cut the roots up either … i dunno what to do … –_–

    do you ever let your roots not submerged?

    Finally someone else that does this….wet floors are a pain! Great set up are you on insta? If so londoncitygenetics love to see more bro!

    Dry yield per plant?

    I noticed in background that the buckets looked like they were insulated along with the return line. If so, have you noticed the temperature being more consistent with those. Also what’s the spacing of your buckets. Would a greater distance bucket require less pruning in your opinion. Due to the distance it needs to travel or is it more a best practice type of thing you do either way. Do you use CC nutrients also?

    Hey man great video! One maybe two questions. Which would be better? Pruning late or early in veg/flower cycle?



  16. @JG-kw1fx on March 27, 2024 at 9:25 am

    Awesome video demonstrating the pruning technique, no idea whats with the people thumbing this video down. Great job keep it up dude!

    YIKES…You pulled that thing up out of the water… I thought it was ZZ Top’s severed head.

    I’m gonna have to try this hydro stuff out, it looks so cool, MuchLuv CWC nice update bro 😉

    Thoughts on doing this in Flower ? Even if its only 10% of the total mass. I’m getting uneven water levels on week 3.5 of flower because 2 of the 6 plants are massive in comparrison. I believe what’s happening is their root mass is blocking proper flow of water to the opposing side.
