Good morning, happy Monday. I'm beat, too much drinking and smoking this weekend. I need an intervention.

I got my clones transplanted, that was it for my productivity this weekend.

About a pound.
54 degrees and a delta breeze, rather nippily out there.
NASCAR double header due to rain yesterday. I have an excuse to do nothing...
Of course the roses need more attention. I have some trimmings to get into the compost bin and more dead branches to trim out of the ones out front along with some deadheading. Need some chainmail gloves and arm guards, I keep leaking when working with them.
Mornin.

Well it is a very nice night View attachment 5294737
:weed:
It sure was....I slept with a window open all night....Love that cool fresh night air. Plus I smoked a shitload of hash and did some bedtime dabs. That shit IS sleep medicine!!

Although I did a dab for breakfast today and about to go up pot my outdoor girls, from 3 gallon pots into 40 gallon bags. With the very last 2 trash cans of super soil....Coco here we come.

It's pretty. BUT now that I am about to become a cocohead, I have questions!!

What's the thingy on the left with all the hoses? Do you do a flood and drain setup?

I do have a nice tray like that, from my aero setup.

I have been reading up on coco a bit...I see some people water 4 x a day.

I also am having a hard time grasping small pots being better, but everything points to that!!

OK, these babes aren't going to up pot themselves, and my helper escaped to a picnic. :shock:

That's my homemade irrigation system, I'll be doing DTW. I've only fired it up to test so far. I'm planning on getting it running this weekend. I've only used automated watering systems for coco, but generally you don't want to let the coco dry out like you do with soil. In flower you're probably going to need to water twice a day.

I would do a side by side comparison. Run a big pot like you normally do and a 2 gallon. See if you see much difference.

Quick question for you how do you control the flow rate is that in the head of the deal?

There is a screw at each port that you can dial the flow rate. There is also a screw to manage the flow rate for the entire manifold. With my pump it it will fill 9 cups to 750ml in a minute. I have to play around with it to figure out the timing for 500ml
