Weedman Herb said:I too grow in Pro Mix ... ditch that saucer ... it's hindering the properties you want in the medium. Drainage and Aeration. You can't Overwater Pro Mix unless you do what you have ... trapped the water and cut off the roots air supply. I flush and feed every other day for established plants in flower and every third day for younger plants. You need a Hydraulic type action to loosen the left over salts and then eliminate them. Hence you send a lot of water through the medium from the top and ... as a bonus ... this will pull air into the rootzone as well.
No can do, my plants are locked in bloom until they're finished no moving them to the sink. They drain into the cake ware & I empty them as I pour quite a bit through them to thoroughly soak the PM. It's the first time in over six years I've forgotten. I'll keep doing only what really needs to be done.
