Yeah lol.
As much as i like them fat they fall all over the place
,next time i will get a tomato frame
Thanks for looking in and your kind comments
Hi jason thanks for looking in and commenting it is appreciated.
I grew for many years using nothing but miracle grow and tomato food,works just fine for some personal stash,obviously your results will be better if you use expensive grow products.
This nute that i am currently using was only 10 quid a bottle(1ltr) and is highly concentrated and i only use 3ml per litre of water,so its nothing special or expensive really all though it is designed for cannabis use in all reality.
I use a 5 foot 58 watt cool blue tube,a 40 watt 3 foot tube and a 400 watt grolux dual spectrum hps.
If you go through the journal you can see that i have fimmed and trimmed to achieve this kind of growth.
The extra size is imo from the airbasket as my plants roots can always breathe.
Most stunting occurs imo from plants roots not being able to breathe well or at all during flowering as after the veg period soil can suffer from compression from top watering.
I will take a look into your journal later
The calyxes are starting to swell up now but i don't think they will ever swell as fat as my mostly indicas.
The plant is about 34" tall on the biggest stem from the top of the soil that is not including the pot.
Thanks for looking in dude,i will pop into your journal later and see how your doing
Hey man no worries,hope you liked the info and pics.
I only have basic cooking scales but i can give you a basic weight when they are done.
It wont be 7oz per stem though lol,i wish it was.
Best of luck with whatever you decide to do and thanks for looking in
They are fairly big now for the space and light i have given them.
Not to bad for a small light in a cupboard
Thanks for looking in bwinn
Hey dude thanks for all of your support.just finished reading...
your plants love you nat
i still cant believe those are grown under a 400 watter!!!!!!!
i cant wait till i hear the final yield.... i wonder how many grams/watt your going to get... its going to be up there anyways.
great idea with the air basket, im sure you have inspired lots of ppl to try this great technique.
your taking some of the best photos on RIU IMHO.
good job, and thanks for sharing bro.
I am glad you liked the pics,i do work hard on them.
Who knows what it will yield,hopefully it will swell up a lot more yet.
The airbasket is not a single product,anyone can make one for themselves so hopefully people will give it a try.
Ask yourself this,can i hurt my plant with better drainage,less soil compression and great aeration?
No.
Better make one then lol.
Thanks again for looking in dude
All other plants in my cupboard are what i call my eighths,only one plant gets the best lit area and i just basically leave the others floating around as the light is on may as well use it.
When they are done i get between 5-15 grams off each outside area plant,so its worth doing it for some extra smoke if you have plenty of seed like i do.
Pots they are in are not huge but not tiny,probably 2-3 litre pots,don't know to be honest
Thanks for having a look dude it is appreciated
Its soil with an artificial lung basically to maintain oxygen to the roots all the way through flowering regardless of soil compression.
It also increases drainage capabilities and the basket itself being full of holes even without the pump being on helps to oxygenate the soil.
Thanks for looking in dude
Yeah man no worries,i have hardly been here lately.Hydroponics is a method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions instead of soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium, such as perlite, gravel or mineral wool. A variety of techniques exist.
hydro is basically its growing plants without soil. if there is ANY soil in the growing medium its not considered hydroponics..
nats, ingenious and novel(?), air basket with augmented pumped oxygen into the soil is just that- its a soil garden fortified with extra pumped oxygen delivered to the roots for faster growth.
i know your question was directed towards natmoon, but he said he has been busy lately and i figured i could answer your question.
Not because i don't want to be but because i have no free time lately.
Thanks for helping out it is appreciated
Lol.
Natmoon=stoned nutter with a few good ideas
Thanks for your vote of confidence though
LOL.haha
why not?
LOL.Yes NatMoon the King of RIU He has my vote!
Looking Great Nat! Hope there not working you to death Nat! Have a good one!
Dudes enough lol
Thanks for looking in and your support.
I don't work for anyone else i am self employed so i am working myself to death,i should be punished
Yeah man i have nothing to sell.
I do hope to one day make my seed available to sell but this is not why i do this,i do it because i love it.
I currently have so much seed just sitting in boxes doing nothing,seems wrong really.
Thanks for bigging me up dude it is appreciated
Yeah man no leaf.
All cut off by me as the thing went along to get maximum light exposure to the bud.
They only need me to look after them,leaves are for outdoor grows and veg time
Thanks for looking in dude it is appreciated
