Man lemme tell you...the one thing they don't put on these bottles of Ativan okay. YOU WILL SLEEP GUD. REAL FUCKING GUD. SUPER DEE FUCKING DUPER GUD.

No joke some of the best sleep in ages in conjunction with my cpap. I go to bed. I wake the fuck up. I'm ready to go....at 4:30am bc the dog yipped and woke me up early. It was supposed to be whenever, but whatever. Then I carefully medicated off the Sai with a few gentle drags like a cloud dragon admiring Han Solo's ship while he's in the light speed tube. After that I didn't stop until my mother got here with 4 full garbage bags of clothes for baby girl as hand me downs from my niece. Fuck.

@Or_Gro the mowing is down for the day. Sun is down and A- is too sweet for skeeters. Just ate some dinner. Gotta be careful to go easy so I don't puke it up, then I'm clear to balls to the wall again. Supposed to have some call tomorrow from a guy scheduling a cat scan of my midsection. Wanna check for blockages and shit. I'm half scared they gonna look in there and see a goddamn mess because I'm a fucking Marine I eat pain, pain doesn't eat me. Except for when you get about to the middle of middle age and your shit starts slowing down because you're not a 20-some year old invincible Superman anymore bro. We had to slot that back out to FMF.

I'm not in the grow but I'm gonna lay back and slowdab some fatties and watch how it's done.

I've been contemplating trying to make a full blown organic dwc try to work. I've used compost tea in dwc before and loved it, but with bottled nutes.

I'm ALL homegrown organic now, so I'm considering trying to run with a compost/manure tea blend. Ever seen such nonsense lol?
I haven’t, but i bet there are guys on here doin it....

on the dwc part shit can happen fast...imo, you gotta get the basics nailed, before goin beyond sop....

Tonight is a water stress day for my girls.

They normally need water every other day right now and today would normally be water and feed day. They'll get it tomorrow instead. For the next 3 to 4 times I water, I'll make them wait for the 3rd day and possibly even a 4th day to cause root growth out farther in the bags. I push for as much root ball as I can get to fill these 20 gallon bags and feed the (now) 60 or more tops on 3 out of 4 of them. I think the MHM is gonna have around 30 to 40 maybe.

Can someone please help me set this tub up for seedlings before I put one in there? I have hydroguard and mammoth P and a couple rooting samples but unsure if I need to use any of that now.

Getting ready to rig up my air line for my tub. I have a couple options for stones. I really previously liked the 6-8 “small” air stones with many splitters but am unsure if this is efficient.

This question is important. My pump is 1100 GPH. Running one tub one nozzle open..... rolls harder than a jet spa. Should I run two lines to the tub with two open nozzles. Or just one with a splitter for my airdtones? Thanks.

I learned to grow in hydro lol. I just live in an area where the power goes out frequently, so I never fired up here.

I've just been having the itch to start up again...

Are you sick man? My friend @Soil2Coco has some health issues and I think of him daily. Hope you’re doing okay brother and I’ll pray for you even if you don’t believe. Cannabis is a miracle cure IMO so keep growing and keep using it. Rock on!!

Have a couple options for doing this. Was wondering what would be most ideal for a rookie DWC. I can grow in soil damnit. Just this water growing learning curve is semi stumping me. But I truly believe you guys aren’t going to let me sink and I appreciate that a lot.

Here’s what I have to work with. I have to cut that lid to fit something. I’m not hoping to grow a plant. I want to grow a tree. With a trunk not a stalk. So I hope the trunk gets larger than those small netpots. But if it’d be more ideal to start one in a small net pot as pictured, I could always cut it away with a. Knife if need be........ not saying that’s the way to go. Just saying there’s work arounds in theory.

Thanks.

I mean yeah I'm sick but doc thinks it might just be some kinda blockage or something. I'm okay for the time being, just waiting on that so we can see what the dealio is. Thanks for the well wishes and shit, means a lot.

If you guys have ANY kind of questions please feel free to ask. Just don't let them be lazy questions, ok? :D

Your stalk won't outgrow any of those net pots.

What medium are you starting in? That'll help pick the net pot.

I’m gonna have to change my style before I ask you anything:D

Just kidding. I work 45-60 hours a week man without fail and I honestly slacked a lot my last grow due to prioritizing smoking/drinking after work. Going to commit to an hour a day after my work day every day to tend to my plants. That should help a lot vs my previous 2-6min MAX interaction a day c

What would you suggest?

Get a taproot from seed and drop it in the hydroton..... or a coco circle rooter thing. Or..:.. buy rockwool?

What is ideal? Everything I do this grow I want to be ideal.

Can I get a PPFD meter, co2, a humidity controller, etc this grow..... probably not.

But I can start my plants with the right products and I can give them the attention they need to survive and hopefully thrive. I don’t have a million dollar setup. I never will. But I want to adapt and become great with what I have.

Unrelated to growing, but have you ever been deployed? Finding a correlation lately between overseas vaccinations and people having "issues". Just had prostatitis myself and that's not even supposed to be a concern for me for another 20 years.

This is how I have my tote grow rigged to go:

Can see the way I cut the holes in for a SoG grow. You don't need that unless you're doing multiple small plants in one grow zone.

image.jpg
Here you can see I cut my hole right in the middle of the 5-gallon lid for just the one plant. That's a 10ml syringe btw.

How good are you at transplanting?

I've always started in coco and then let them dry out right before the transplant to the net pot. Coco falls right off, then just roots and hydroton/lava rock/etc in the net pot.

Gives you plenty of time to dial in your res while they spit roots.

Is that an option for you?
