Default Bubbleponics/DWC Roots Question
I've been reading up on this site for about 2 months now and feel I am ready to take the plunge into growing my own medicine.
I've just recently received 10 AK48 seeds from NIRVANA and intend to grow them in a DIY Rubbermaid DWC/Bubbleponic system. However seeing as these seeds are not feminized and roots tend to grow together in single reservoir systems im worried about root shock to the females when I have to transplant the males out of the reservoir.
Wont cutting the males leave excess root build up in my reservoir?
And if so will this be a problem?
Is there a way (possibly with a screen inserted into reservoir) to prevent my roots from growing together?

Any bit of advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ahead.

I havent' heard of a screen to prevent ur roots from growing together but u can put ur water pump in panty hose to keep roots out of it.

You cut the roots out as best you can doing as little damage to the female roots as possible. But you make sure you get all the dead root material out. You can cut quite a bit of the female roots without doing any damage to the plants.
