Cultivating community - and greatness - every week!
Thanks to your very insightful questions, we got deep into the weeds on this week’s session of Office Hours! Among many things Seth covered the ins and outs of analyzing EC levels, why regularly maintaining and cleaning irrigation systems must always be a priority, and the roles research and experimentation play in agriculture.

“VPD is all about optimizing what's right around leaf surface, and making sure we're taking advantage of every hour that the lights are on.” - Seth

“Anytime that we're not able to take advantage of the full inputs that the room’s capable of putting down, we're actually not making as much money per square foot per day as what we want to make.” – Seth
Eyes on the prize.
“Ideally we want to have [plants] coming out of veg rocking.” - Seth
