Yes you're right there @conor c about cramming them in mate, I'm doing some rough calculations here and I've grown circa 40 plants this year with lots of downtime previously that would've taken me around 18mth with my typical method.

With few tweaks and 11-13 2x plants in 1x pot works out imo it's a pheno hunting dream, that was my original purpose for trying 12-12 from seed but I've found many other benefits now I wouldn't grow new seeds any other way.

That's a week and more the pots have been bagged they're killing fungus gnats left and right.
Most get stuck to the wet roof and drown and any that miss it end up in that squish area lol (right) shooting fish in a barrel.

They're easy squished and they've not had the chance to breed :mrgreen:

A total head fk...I've caught 5 on the sticky trap and 5/6 in flight over 8 days idk where they've come from, I'm guessing they've squeezed out somewhere so I've sealed the clones again only with bags this time and tweaked the ones in pots to be sure they can't get out...fingers crossed.

I'm into the 3rd week now since I sealed the pots, I've squished 3 this week the numbers are certainly falling and I've not seen any flying or in the traps, everything is looking up.

I kept coco from plants I let go inside a sealed bag to see how long it takes for gnats to die out 100%.

Found this beauty in a pack of the Bluchi v3 it doesn't smell like a cheese yet it's more orangey fruity berry smell ... I have another pheno that is the pungent cheese and had two from the last time Round that was pungent this is summit else tho
I didn think I'd find in a pack with cheese dominance ..... great work by London city genetics

I do have a sink up there but it’s really shallow and can’t fit a bucket under. It’s also water from a storage tank so not the freshest!

It’s all good! I bought house plants to say im watering them xD

If you turn off your water, get a pipe cutter for a couple of quid, get a speed fit T piece for about £2 , then a washing machine tap and hose connection , you've got an easy to use tap. Less than a Tenner.

That's what I did as none of the universal hose -tap connectors would hold well. They'd make an awful noise or just pop off the tap..

Doesn't solve the storage tank issue though :roll:

I used to carry 100 ltrs of water every two days up two flights of stairs , had popeye arm.. and people would mistake me for a massive wanker :shock:

Still good going!! I can imagine xD

I’ve flooded two floors before. Was filling a 80L bucket with water with the shower then the Chinese arrived. As im eating my food I pause and say to my wife ‘what’s that dripping sound?’

bloody legged it upstairs to find water coming out the light fixture in the landing below the bathroom xD

Also fell down the stairs holding a 25kg oil radiator. Made a fabulous crash as it smashed into the central heating radiator below xD
