Coco grow - Super Silver Haze, Blue Cheese and Trainwreck

[inked]

Those pots look the bollocks bro.....do you know anyone using them? how does the soil not all fall out the bottom? nice grow too

truly man this is one of those inventions that is changing the way things are done. im a bit sketchy on the thing in the bottom the holes look a bit big i reckon the coco will fall through. i had the same problem with my big ass 11L pots they have 2" oblong drain hole i just put a kitchen towel in the bottom n poured the coco in i reckon same will apply.

man natmoon was pioneering. remember that freak cross he did had the weirdest leaf n calyx structure ive ever seen. guy knew his onions

yeah man....I wonder how the fella is. Hope he's still growing those 2 foot colas. LOL

I think I will probably stick a layer of clay pebbles in the bottom of the air pots. The pebbles are pretty big and won't go through the holes, but will form a nice layer that the coco won't go through. That's my thinking anyway, might not work as planned, but I'll figure something out. Or maybe even some of that weed control fabric. I'd be worried about mould with a kitchen towel I think.

cheers man!

I don't know anyone using them, but looking at that promotional video, the results are clear. Did you see that root ball?? Plus with Natmoon's previous DIY air pot, I am totally convinced by these things. I love the engineering and design as well, it's all been well thought out.

I have read about people using smart pots with mixed reviews. But smart pots don't look as 'smart' as these 'air pots'....LOL

hi snowwhite i noticed on the very first page you say that you used v. small amounts of coc a+b. how small is small? my seeds have just sprouted and because ive never grown in coco im very paranoid! lol. any advice to when to start the rhizotonic and the a+b? thanks

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

damn good idea fella i was thinking spagnum moss but clay pebbles would be much less messy and work just as well!

you know guys like that cant stop growing. i was saying to the missus just the other day even if i stopped smoking weed id probably still grow it for the pleasure of looking and smelling it. she thinks im bonkers.

I watered my coco in with a light feed before I put the seeds in man. About 0.7-0.8 EC. That was about 1.8ml of A and B per litre. Plus some rhizo.

same mate. It's a proper hobby for me, regardless of the smoking side. My mrs also thinks I'm bonkers! But I'm just happy she lets me do it....I'm a lucky guy. She could make me pull the plug anytime if she wanted too man and I would do it for her as well. But hopefully it won't ever come to that.

I would do the same. I love just looking at them and smelling them too. I'm not not really a heavy smoker (i work too much) so i would probably only need to do two grows max a year or one good one to keep me in bud.

i was talking to my pal the other night and i actually realised i spend more time talking and learnin on riu than i do ANY other activity its about 49/51 between sleep and weed learning/rui.

i would quit it all tomorrow if mine asked me too mate. i live by a few golden rules. 1 of them is; keep the lady in your life happy and everything else will fall into place.

theres something mesmirising about it. everywhere i go i see plants trees bushes and note the internodes the bloom wonder what the yeild is like on cherry trees. i love the deep stuff like fibonacci's golden ratio its everywhere. enough i ramble.

this is no hobby lads its a way of life

 

[oscaroscar]

Too right Don, a way of life. I appreciate nature more too. The structure of plants and trees fascinates me now.
My mrs don't really like me doing it either but if she don't like it she can f#ck off. She'd kick my nuts until i had 3 adams apples if she read that lol. But seriously if she said pull the plug i would, gotta keep her happy coz if she's not happy i'm not happy

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

amen bro ! whatever makes you happy eh weed is a treat but nothing compared to your woman. yeah you can talk like you rule the roost but i know how shot goes down. woman like you to be that man in charge type but like to know they can wrap you round their finger eh!

I just grow for the pleasure of growing.
Don't really need the weed, just need to grow... lol.

Man has dominion over the home. Period.

Although... man needs to owe his allegiance to a higher authority than his own, before he can rule....
In other words... no woman will put up with a dickhead!
Know what I mean...

Air pots... hmmmm.

 

[theloadeddragon]

nothing has ever fullfilled me such as having a wonderful family, AND growing pot....... one without the other its just not the same........

I agree.

For some reason i just love growing and plants fascinate me. The fact that they use sunlight to convert water into food is insane. I am going to study botony after my freshman year in college, maybe i might learn a thing or two

I could spend all day reading about it...

 

[SnowWhite]

good moring/afternoon or evening all.............hope you are well........

What a week!!!......been real busy with life this week, so not had much chance for updates and chatter, as much as I love to. But got lots of pics for ya today.

Don, this is what I was talking about before mate.......check out the stalk/roots.......4L pots......

Got my heater in place....ligths off temps are now always 19 deg C 55-60% RH.......i like it!

The rest of the pics basically speak for themselves I think.......30 days 12/12.......I'm a happy guy!

 

[oscaroscar]

Great update man. Is the SSH the tallest one with two main colas? The trainwreck looks real nice. You're gonna have some fantastic bud soon, nice job

 

[theloadeddragon]

you can just cover the exposed roots with an extra half inch of coco if you want.... once the roots turn green, they won't go back.... the trick is to prevent it if you can...... unless is a large portion of the roots mass, you usually won't see it effect the yield a whole lot , occassionally it will prolong flower a bit (depending on at which point the roots were exposed, how much was exposed, the turnover rate, and other contributing factors such as air/water/nutrient quality and concentration )

 

[theloadeddragon]

beautiful nugs though bro.... beautiful

 

[liljheazy]

very nice!

 

[Mammath]

Looking great Snowy.
It's getting quite full in there
Colas are coming along nicely mate.
