haha. nothing to special, simply Cellophane wrapping foil.
found my soil drying too quick on the sides.
wasnt a problem with cocos when watered everyday.
works well, it just kinda imitate a normal pot this way,
bottom is more airy probably, but that should be about it.
i have in the squaremeter tent 4 times 3 gallon fabric pots which are also wrapped,
and they need water every second day in flower.

could be noted:
the backups are gelatos, i prefer do sweet dos in the meantime for the taste but nothing wrong with this gelato.
they where quite old plants held in party cups without any care, cut down several times.
looking like.... 2 weeks ago.
they need some good cleanup and training for sure, havent done anything to them.
overall am very fine how they do, they clearly picked up and are on a very good way.

due to the reveg 3 of the 4 plants take forever.
front right is quite done, others arent.
i wont be able to harvest before monday, will cut the front right first and leave the rest.
the over 1500ppfd gave me some slight bleached tops on the tallest ones.

thanks Mo.
this is the smaller 3x3 86x86cm tent with 2 Gelatos in 5 Gallon pots using second time recycled soil.
soil have a lot EWC and biochar, but probably whats working the most there now is the half cup 5-3-7 organic fertilizer pellets i gave a few days after going 12/12, will give them some bat guano and may topdress another time pellets in 2-3 weeks, idk.
so far they look well fed, doing awesome.

dont plan to go over much more then 1200ppfd at the tops, going to raise the light furhter in the next days and will increase the wattage towards maybe 240W..

That looks awesome, that praying and second pic of the 'crown' - grow boner. Hoping for good flower weather, its not easy to pull off outdoor in the north. Have you done a stem rub for smells? These genetics, is it Growers choice like the one i got (i know you told me but please remind me :) ), really interested of what to expect. And finally love the garden, especially the bird house

Not much damage, its just the lower leaves who got slighty eaten.
I wouldnt even worry if it where thrips in the garden, well i would worry to bring them inside to my tents of course.
Glad its no thrips therefore, thanks.

I like the praying also haha, for sure not caused by too much light today, its quite cloudy.
Otherwise they had some quite sunny days even given the spot theyre in isnt ideal.
Outdoor weed is seldon good here, needs a lot luck.
If the next weeks are sunny it may work out and give halfway good flowers which would then be the best outdoor i ever had from my region.
Looking quite good, ideal temps and quite some sun from monday.
Those are Growers Choice, i forgot to say, same breeder as you bought seeds from.
Impression isnt bad, strong genes, need to make a stemrub in max 3 weeks the garden should stink anyway or its lacking flavor, i will tell.
