What size pot/pots in a 3x3?

[Cotyledon420]

You don't necessarily have to put worms in. They help break down organic matter and bring nutrition deep into the soil. They also help condition/aerate the soil, but they're not the be all, end all. In the earthbox, there's a plastic deck with holes in it, that separates the soil and water. The holes are big enough for worms to get thru, so use them with caution. You don't want anything in the res that'll get funky. That being said, I use them in mine, but I didn't for the first month or so.

What's ur thought on the two earthboxes ? I Kno one will do it but two fitr perfectly

I'll say this, once the roots hit the res, they take off in growth. If you think you can keep up with the feedings and the growth, go for it. I'm a big fan of the earthbox.

Earthboxes do work well.

But I'd want a drip tray for underneath.

Just keep it moist and it'll stay alive.

Nice. That works. I have an old one too, but I've only used it outside.

Shouldn't I plant some cover crop or wouldn't that be idle when it's fallow

 

[Cotyledon420]

Y'all seen those little bars that keep the tent walls pushed...I thought it might give me a couple extra inches to play with

Is made my life a lot easier. In flower, the most I had to fill the res was every two days, and never have to worry about over or under watering, and i feel it decomposes top dressing faster from the constant moisture and plastic top. The only complaint I have is it's only 1cu.ft. soil capacity.

I just use rice hulls for mulch, but cover crops are better for no-till.

[Cotyledon420]

Well if I can get some tents set up I could use this soil no problem

 

[Cotyledon420]

Should I add the 1 foot extension
