Well, I suppose. If you look at Emilys Garden it makes sense. They call these net pots, the only place there is a problem in these holes on the side. So, each one had a plastic bag in it seperating it from the next one. I cut the bottom out of the plastic bag, and pushed it back down to the bottom of the pot, left the top of the bag over the outside edge of the pot, filled them like have way with coco and when I transplanted, I simple pulled the bag down to the outside of the pot which pulled the bag up from the bottom allowing it to drain.

Thanks Victor!
I will follow your guide lines. Unfortunately I can't afford a ppm or PH pen at this point. I am using a PH kit. The PH is somewhere between 5.5 and 6.0.
Its pretty warm in my grow room, around 30C so I'm worried about lowering the lamp, it does not have a cooling device. But i just purchased a fan that might help a little.
I have been giving the plants water every day until about 10% comes out of the bottom.
I'm going to look at the contest, thanks for letting me know.
here is a picture of my four seedling. Two white widow and two Mexicana. The smallest one I planted later than the rest.
Have a nice day!

Well, thanx for the pictures, we like pictures. The ph test kit is what I used for the first year or so, and I got away with it. I did purchase the ppm meter, but I am using flood and drain hydro. Its not as forgiving. I like to take credit for the method, I got it from Garden Knowm's (SeeMoreBuds) book.
You will have to deal with the temperatures. Yes a fan will help, you also need 'fresh air', and if this is being done in a confined space you will need to cool that furnace seperate from the rest of your air handling. THe Mexicana may be breed for higher temperature climate's, I am not familiar with it, its a guess on my part.
All of this should be a part of your journal. Posts like this are what gets your journal read. Most of the experienced growers, and I am not one, look for new journals to see if folks are getting good advice. I think they kinda figure I can hold my own, so they don't visit here much.
What you have been doing looks like it is working just fine, your plants look nice and healthy. Any thing you can do to improve the conditions will help. If you keep the 7 basics in balance you will be 99% succesful. I look forward to following your journal, be sure and send Garden Knowm the link to it. VV:blsmoke:

That will depend on the plants. As soon as I feel they can take the flood and drain I will go to that, I like to be at full strength nutes by then. These cutting were taken on the 18 and the 20th, so not quite 2 weeks. I still have to transplant 20 more into the new pots, just picked up another case of them today. Here are pictures from a few minutes ago. This is one table of cuttings mostly skunkberry, and the other table has the mothers along with 15 more cuttings. Table 2 is pretty much NorthernBerry, these are in their fourth week of flowering, The skunkberry on table one are four weeks also and the HempWarp are just about two weeks flowering. Don't want to get bored so I have some vegtables growing with these cuttings, and I have some HempWarp cuttings as well. Watering them by hand requires some equipment, There are 159 of them and 35 vegtable plants. I picked up a little fountain kit at Wally world with a 600 gph pump, $35.00 including a 20 gallon container, a push hose fitting $5.00 and a 25' flex hose, $12.00, an assortment of spray nozzles from Sams club this one has a shutoff valve right on it, $11.00. All of that goes into the res I mixed for them, 1/4 strength nutes and additives ph 5.6. Took less than 15 minutes to water them. I am just letting it run to waste. Of course having a concrete floor helps. I will get caught up some time. VV:blsmoke:

yeah man, that watering hose is sweet! I've never seen a kit like that over here in the UK. :evil: I want one.

I've been looking at buying the bits and making my own 'kit'. 600gph pump you say, hmmm, what's that in litres......Google?

:peace:

fucking hell.....2200 lph! that's quite big! But to create good enough pressure for the hose/rose, I guess it needs to be.

Yes, that part is often misunderstood, the 600gph rating is with one foot of rise, not 25' of hose. I have found you can buy a pond kit for less than you could buy the parts in it seperatly. VV
