Smooth1 Big Bud Coco Air Pots 600W HPS

[Smooth1]

As you can tell in the picture of the bigger female getting a bit of yellowing on the bottom leaves. I belive this to be a salt build up or nitrogen def so gunna flush tommorow and see what happens. Any opinions on this would be great.

Wow, looks like I need to switch to airpots-your babies are growing like crazy! Your going to have so much sweet sticky buds!!

Lookin great! Can't wait to watch it unfold. So did you end up flushin em? We use coco and smart pots where i live and we flush with ph'ed tap water once a week. Seems to work, haven't had any major lockout issues. How much do the 10 litre air pots cost ya? And how would you say they compare to smart pots/root pots (if you've used either of those)?

Yer I flushed them with ph adjusted tap water 20l of it. Seems to have done the job as I havnt seen any more yellowing as I have trimmed them now. Wouldn't no about them compared to any think else as this is my first time but im really impressed with them. price wise I brought them at same time as everything else so unsure really. I will take a picture of the roots out of the air pots just for you when its all finished. Been in flower for 16 days now and looking amazing more pictures tonight.

Congrats. I'm at 26.5" today with a couple days shy of 2 weeks flowering. Loads of little flowering nodes everywhere! Looks like we'll be harvesting around the same time

 

[Smooth1]

Yer looks like the next 6 or so week is going to be an exciting time for us. I'm now looking into harvesting and drying methods. So if anyone one has got some good ideas please post them here. Glad your girl is coming along well will have to check out some pictures of her soon thanks for the news and good comments.

You should check out DocBud's drying room setup in his current journal. It's simple, cheap, and could be modified to suit your needs. Your pics look great, by the way. Even the one that's upside down.

Like the way you use coco with airpots. I got a bunch laying around will set up a few to see how they perform. From seeing your grow it will do great. Thanks for the inspiration!

[Twelve12]

No problem. Always looking to try new methods. I got some coco coir 5kg block and wow, after a few gallon of water it filled up the 20 gallon tote. Setting the coco grow tomorrow!

How long have you been growing coco in airpots?

 

[Brainstorm420]

What's up Smooth?-long time eh? I hope your girls are getting beefy! Just measured mine this morning at 28" and only 17 days into 12/12! I'll be sure to post some more pics of mine by Tuesday.

I get my coir in 25kg bag. And course chunks in a block I would suggest mixing chunks in it helps with drainage. Also I don't no if you have already done it but a pre charging solution is a good Idea. This is my first grow but spent about 3 months researching it before I started. Thank again for keeping me involved speak soon.

Sorry been slacking a bit pics in the next day or two.

 

[Twelve12]

Looking forward to the pics!
Got the coco airpot going for a week now, and when I water them the water does not spill from the sides. That usually happens with soil and I'm liking it more. Plants seem to love this method.

 

[Smooth1]

Yer sorry about the lack of info on here. I've been away on holiday and real busy with work. But I'm still looking after the girls will get som pictures on real soon hopefully. They are looking great all covered in sticky buds Shuld be harvesting any time soon. Are so heavy they are snapping branches. I'm loving arlir pots to drainage is great with coco.

Thanks smooth
