trichcycler Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 except tomatoes produce fruit, and cannabis produces flowers. you are right though, a weed is a weed. I've seen cannabis finish in a driveway crack, windowsill, office cabinet drawer, in rocks, gravel, wood chips, lava rocks, Styrofoam, gelatin, bubbles, and in a tree trunk, and even with roots hanging in a fogged plastic bag! The substrate may not be as important as the available nutrients and atmosphere conditions.

pic book Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 soil-in-hydro observations after two strains: the flip into water causes a tripling in the weight (size) of plant fiber. the strains were lemon cake--s dom 70% and real killer skunk--i dom 80%. both were grown in soil to the point they were root bound (3 gal pots, 25-28" tall). then for the transition to 12/12 holes drilled in the bottoms, and the pots dropped into dro. (24-hour flow in lava rock). in the water, the stalks enlarged 3 times in the first 21 days, and most stems twice, making the stretch the fastest bulking period of veg. (i consider veg to be through day 21 of 12/12, and so i feed veg nutes until day 22). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i consider veg to be through day 21 of 12/12, and so i feed veg nutes until day 22). been considering something along those very lines pic... i was thinking about using river rock since i have a heaping pile full of them.. are you top watering at all anymore? or just allowing the absorption to wick up into the pot? i wondered about using a auto water drip line on the tops with a "flowing fresh water river" of sorts... with river rock being the substrate at the plant locations.. either a long slow top flow or one on a timer.. not sure if they would even need top watering other than to help force "off gassing" just fantasizing...

Fitter636 Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Can someone put the good KISS Link back up . Having a hard time finding it . I am looking to building self watering pots from 5 gallon buckets . Have the idea already but just looking for nutrients suggestions as looking to keep it all organic . I used fox farms happy from granual and had great results just looking to spice it up . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pic book Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 mibrains no your brains: the soil pots in hydro get no top water, wicking only. salutes to a river running under with top drip to pots, might give better results?

trichcycler Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 offensive preventative measures are my only choice. If I use any oily sprays, even organic, my worms will die along with my soil beneficials. In hydro though I bet wipe out rocks. does not matter cause wipeout wipes the buggers and eggs, out.
