Anywyas got 16 plants 8 Blueberry F1 and 8 Sweet Purple.Put them in 3 gallon pots today and gonna veg 2 weeks maybe 3 under 600 watt lights on 24 hours aday thengo 600 watt enhanced spectrum 12/12.This will be setup on a res with a timed drip feed but I got tired and hand watered this time but will finish tomarrow. Light was up for pics and breaking these clones into it.This is a miracle grow moisture control soil grow no nutes for 45 days just plain water at 6.5

This will be Fox Farm when its time I think but maybe I will spring for some advance niutes when the aero grow finishes in a few weeks since I never used them and see good things.My goal is to get 2 oz per plant on this fast grow and see if I can do it just a little lollipoping under the 600 watter.

Nice...I look forward to seeing your setup for this. I'm trying to setup a drip system for my soil pots at the moment. What sort of drippers are you using? I've got 2l per hour slow drippers for now (2 per pot), but I don't know if this is the best sort for soil. Any advice would be welcome? Thanks and good luck with your dirt grow! :joint:

Well I had a change of heart and sacrafice a bluberry for a new mom and Im gonna toss one of my ohio clones I use for my aero grows in that last pot to see what it yields dirt compared to aero and the time frame.I wanted to use soaker rings in these but I have a 4 x 4 box of irrigation surrplus I bought last year from a close out distributor so I will be using 8 gallon and hour low pressure heads on 4 main lines with a t fitting at each plant except the last plant in each row will have a 90 degree barb then the hise with dripper.These will come off 4 lines that will be on an 8 head distributor in the res hooke to either a 200 gph pump or a 400 gph pump if I can find it I know I have it but misplaced it.I gotta work the times on for these thing tonight to see how long to run the timmer.Im debating whether to water when lights are on or off and whether to do one water time or maybe 4 smaller on times through out the day.We will see

Oh I will go aero again since I had done dirt when I was a new kid doing this and every since my first flood table had no urge to go back to dirt but I got bored.Im not sure what inch pots these are as I buy pot buy gallon size and these are 3 gallon pot maybe roughly 10-12 inches wide and 12 inches or so tall???????

Well didnt really mean to make this a grow journel but Im bored and deel like posting this little journel.Anywas day 3 since going into soil. About 1-2 inches of growth in the Miracle grow moisture control. The damaged cause during the cloning time with the leaves using themselves as food has stopped and is reversing. these are filling in and turning green again and dropping unneeded yellow uglies.Still have yet to add the auto water system but think I have my schedule figured out got all the stuff just have to slap it in there,Anyways.......
