well if the price is cheaper with better results sounds like a smart move
From what I found its the same price as FF...Im there
everything is looking real green! Ive been thinking about trying out white widow for my next grow. Ive had white lightning and it was pretty damn good, so i cant imagine some WW.
How do you like those pots? I was thinking about getting some but opted for some rootmakers.So far they have been great to my babies!
keep up the good work
Thanks AK
I love smart pots and the plant seem to as well. The roots are air pruned. The root ball is a very fibrous root system. Here is some info I found and is why I use them.
Air-pruning Containers -- the key to growing trees best suited to urban spaces is to maintain most roots in a horizontal position with continued branching. This can be accomplished by allowing air to prune the roots as they first reach the bottom and later the sides of the growing container. The dead root-tips have effectively been cauterized and are unlikely to be colonized by pathogens. Young seedlings respond by developing fibrous absorbing roots laterally in the container. Effective air-root-pruning containers guide root-tips into the numerous openings without having openings so large that rapid evaporation and salt accumulation become an issue. Repeated pruning on the bottom, as well as the container sides, helps the tree develop a vigorous and efficient root system.
'Most water and nutrient absorption occurs at or just behind the white root-tip. When root-tips grow out from the base of the plant and are stimulated to branch as a result of air-root-pruning or root-tip-trapping when they reach the sidewall, branching typically occurs about four inches back along the young root. The four-inch rule appears to apply to all species when roots are young and reactive. If this large number of roots hits the side of a smooth, conventional container and begins to circle, little is gained. On the other hand, if this large number of roots contacts the sidewall and is again either air-root-pruned or pruned by root-tip-trapping, the resulting mass of roots infiltrates the entire mass of growth medium for maximum absorption of water and nutrients to support top growth."
Looking great my friend! i also have a labeling problem, i just wait till flower to find out what they are. Me and my roommate have been taking so many clones its to hard to keep track of dates and strains so we just go by size and leaf, luckily most of out plants look quite different leaf wise anyway and we flower once they are a reasonable height. Once their in flower its easy to figure out whats what. One day i might start using that herb.iq program i started to use then stopped lol, one day......
Thanks A6, not happy with my leaves on some and the others I fcked up from overwatering. I think I finally got the lemon skunk out of itd funk but has no fan leaves left...oh well grow and learn...lol I only need the name if it good so I can order more beans...lol and I let the plant say when its ready to chop...
Yeah FFOF is ALWAYS loaded with gnats in my experiance, think I got thrips from it too... baught it twice, 6 months apart and encountered it as well as lots of reports of it on here. They don't sterilize it to keep the benies alive, but shit with everything that seems to come in it I'd rather just re inoculate it with some Great White then deal with the shit they leave in there and sell u @ $25 dollars a bag. What are better alternatives if you don't mind me asking....just in case I ever dip into the organic soil world again.
I used OF twice and got gnats both times. I bought Roots organic coco fiber mix (brown bag) by mistake, I dont like that shit, how it looks, too loose and both the flowering plants and babies I have in it are doing the worst. I went and got the Roots Organig POTTING SOIL in the green camo bag. I like how it feels, looks and the plants I put in it are doing the best and NO BUGS. Most of the babies are in it and going to up pot to 2gal would do 3 if I was veging longer. So I will have a better feel from it then.
