Closet Grow With QB

Ooòoo more auto octopots... May I say greenthumb.. you didn't need to extend the net pots. So long as you bring your water level up to the half way mark around the netpot...

You may want to pop over to my journal and have a rmflick through on pages 3 to 6 roughly. That's where I was building my own... again I'd like to just add that a dark pot is better. I've used a see through pot and after 2months I got some creepys.. so have some h202 ready if your not taking up the pots .. looking forward to seeing what you get here and if I can offer any advice with the home made dream will be. Keep your res low through veg you want your roots to crawl the floor of you pot and encourage them to the sides. When you get into flower and have that res filled with roots. FLOOD TH3 BITCH!!

 

[GreenThunder]

they get top watered only once, on transplant into the pot. Is yours different because it's homemade?

Is she in soil? That would be different. I was/am following the instructions from the autopot system.... I'm using coco which isn't supposed to dry out (I think)

You may want to pop over to my journal

I'll take a look! Always looking to soak up more knowledge and info.

 

[InTheShed]

Oh yes, I believe she's in soil. Minor detail...

 

[GreenThunder]

Oh yes, I believe she's in soil.

I'm considering trying this some day... but not soon. I'm going to stay in my comfort zone for a while.

I thought I would never change anything but I got so sick of all the bottles that I'm dumping Fox Farms/Cal-mag/silica and giving MegaCrop powder a try. I hope it works it's so damn simple!

 

[GreenThunder]

giving MegaCrop powder a try. I hope it works it's so damn simple!

I'll try to keep up and see how it works for you. I like simple!

 

[InTheShed]

I'll tag you in with the final results!

I have used this it worked good for me in the hydro system.

1-5-10? It's amazing that's enough nitrogen JM.

 

[JustMeds]

I had good results with it, so not sure. I do feel she is light also by the numbers.

The closet lost one occupant but gained another. The unknown bs moved into the tent for flower time. I think she's gorgeous (and hopefully a girl)

LSD clone is the new resident. She was cut 27 days ago

I goofed and let her get root bound in the solo cup not only that but I let her get too dry too. She could punish me for it the rest of her life... I'll treat her real good and see if she'll forgive me

Here's her tote.... 15 liters with a 5 gallon smart pot. I'd prefer it to be narrower and taller but what I do like is that the netpot lid fit without any modifications

I cut a hole in the bottom of the pot and used the circle in the bottom of the netpot to contain the coco a bit. The coco (with perlite) gets compressed into the netpot/wick. The first third of the fill in the pot should also be compressed.

Cut a hole in the top of the tote for the wick

I covered the tote and lid with foil tape and added a hole for filling.

Here she is, tucked in with Shiatsu Kush (left) and Auto Mazar (right)

Looks like you're already forgiven.

 

[GreenThunder]

Looks like you're already forgiven.

Or I cheated and picked the very best pic that shows her good side? Honestly she does look a bit better than I'd expect. She was planted and (more importantly) fed about an hour before the pic. Maybe she's grateful... after having watched her sister get given away to rookies

 

[GreenThunder]

Auto Chemdog has joined the party!

The seed membrane got stuck around her leaves

It was time for lights out so I spritzed her and let her be, hoping she’d grow out of it on her own. She didn’t…

Another spritz and a gentle tug and she's free from her bond! Happy dog

 

[InTheShed]

New life! So cute. I hardly grow anything from seed these days.

 

[Derbybud]

Fingers crossed for a girl. And she doesn't look bad at all. She's going to blow up now in that new pot. Some really like the abuse.

 

[InTheShed]

I can't keep my fingers crossed for that long! Ask me again around day 40 .

 

[Smeegol]

I found the octopot I was looking for......

 

[GreenThunder]

Found a round screen for LSD clone to grow into

*******
Shiatsu Kush got tied down

Hard to tell but it did open her up some

She's got this long branch packed with nodes

Her crazy top

 

[Big Sparks]
