Kanno 26: Soil, RQS, Bubble Kush, Feminized, 2nd Journal

[Kanno26]

Hello everyone, today the second white widow went into battle! So and I can start other girls are doing well.
White Widow XXL

Bubble Kush

And I would also like to show you my preparation for one SIP for one white widow, so I hope I have everything for that @Azimuth?

The plan is that it will be in a 15 liter bucket, I will drill holes in the second bucket like a strainer and add a pipe for adding water, and make an overflow into the bucket because of the air gap? Is it @Azimuth?

 

[Azimuth]

Hmmm. Not sure I'm following your plan in how you're putting those pieces together.

 

[Kanno26]

So this is how my first attempt at SIP turned out and the tank can hold about 4 liters of watering and I think it can hold around 12 liters of soil.

So I'll see when I fill it up how much will fit. And differently to my girls, they stopped a bit and I think it's because of the night temperatures, which are around 15 degrees Celsius. So I decided to buy a tent heater. So I just hope it helps, I think it's worth it.

What do you think about it? @Jon, @Azimuth, @Bill284, @Emilya Green, @StoneOtter.

 

[Azimuth]

Is that coco you're growing in?

 

[StoneOtter]

Hey Kanno, Not having grown one yet it's hard for me to say. It does appear to be a SIP! Is there going to be about an inch of air space under the soil after the side hole drains? If so then it looks like it to me! Azi is the one to trust though!

 

[Kanno26]

Yes @Azimuth, they are in the coconut and then go into the ground when they are bigger.

Hi @StoneOtter, I have about 2 centimeter air gap.

Hi @StoneOtter, I have about 2 centimeter air gap.

Close enough! A little bigger would be preferable but that will work.

 

[Kanno26]

I can still try to move it and see what can be done.

Coco right, your feeding week nutrients around 5.8 ph?
Look good Amigo.

Hi @Bill284, just water and ph 5.8 for now.

 

[Bill284]

Hi @Bill284, just water and ph 5.8 for now.

There is zero nutrients in that coco.
You must feed weak nutrients to start, as soon as they have leaves.
Close to 5.8 is good.
But you really shouldn't ever give plain water in coco.
That will help the color.
Talk soon.

And one more question. Do I have a wet/dry class for coconuts or should they always be watered?

Sorry I should have mentioned.
Coco is hydrophobic.
If it dries out at all it repels water.
So you have to keep your coco damp at all times.
Water away from the roots to draw them out.
But yes feed every day, no water preferably.

Hey everyone, my girls finally got rolling thanks to @Bill284 and they are doing like this.

WHITE WIDOW XXL

BUBBLE KUSH

So that's my team

I am solving a problem, can you help me? The little pigs started coming out of the ground, and I think they are weevils and the pigs are eating the roots, do you have any tips on how to get rid of them so they don't destroy my girls?

Thanks for the advice @Jon, @Azimuth, @StoneOtter, @Emilya Green, @Bill284.

 

[Azimuth]

Those look like fungus gnats to me. Can you find mosquito dunks in your country? Add them to your feed water and that should kill them. They happen when the top of the soil stays too wet.

Looking good though.

Hi @Azimuth, I didn't know that we have fungus gnats here. I thought they were fruit flies or some kind of flies. Will it help if I let air circulate over them?
