i was just thinking a couple of hours ,, ill block light gettin to roots..

 

[chitownsmoking]

no that sounds like a bad idea.

 

[marijaneindeed]

i meant i wouldnt! sorry, for mishap.

 

[HERBAL ADDICT]

the pots are over waterd and the roots are wanting co2
they been wet for days

 

[chitownsmoking]

roots want oxygen not co2 stop overwatering and dont do what your tinking of doing

 

[marijaneindeed]

make drain holes, but i would not take it out.

 

[flipsidesw]

Yea you can. Just roll the pot till the plant is very loose. Pull it out and put about a half gallon of fresh soil in plastic bag, put the plant in and tie it closed to seal in some moisture.

Try putting a fan directly across the top of the pot to dry it out some.

 

[chitownsmoking]

so flip youthink itsa good idea he does this every time he overwaters? i would say let it dry and stop overwatering. i would not take the plant out the pot unless your transplanting

 

[marijaneindeed]

i dont over water,, i aint a dum cunt or a new grower,i water/feed when pots are dry,
ive got a salt build up and need to flush as my plants are starting to lock up and stop drinking as much.. so the soil has now been moist for a while cos plants uptake has slowed down..
i want the roots to get some oxygen (wich i did think was c02) and if i flush now it will mean more days of wet soil,
thats why i would like to dry the medium out a bit before i flush

understand?

i have good drainage on all pots but that dont help damp soil
that just drains exess water that the pot cant hold...
its the water the soil has held that i want to dry

and if roots have slowed the uptake then its guna take over a week to dry,,
and for the sake of the plants health it needs sortin soon

 

[chitownsmoking]

wha kind of soil you got

 

[marijaneindeed]

Chill, and hit a bowl, no one called you a "dum cunt"....


peace-

until my canna soil comes on thursday im just using un fertilized seedling/cutting soil with mixed perlite,,
its not ideal but all that was around when i moved up pot size

 

[chitownsmoking]

if you have good drainage there aint shit to trip on. let the soil dry out it self.
