SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

[Shiggity]

Some background I also back in the early 2000's had this BRILLIANT business idea I wanted to make... people would send me pics or random shit they wanted to have made into a bong, I would quote them a number and if agreed they would mail it to me I would then craft it into said bong and mail it back. It was going to be called "Hit Dis!" and the logo was going to be the planet turned into a make shift bong... Pipe dreams.... as it were hahahaha

A SIP bong would bring new meaning to the words “dirty bong water”

Day 41 flower....





I been able to slow the fade, and she filled out a lil bit. Next run I need to remember to feed heavy N to week 7.

Looking beautiful man! Is she just one plant?

Yup just one. She's got a big appetite that's hard to keep up with. Lol

I bet just a topping of ewc would help quite a bit with the nitrogen without going overboard.

I watered in some water soluble soybean aminos. It's 15-0-0 but I diluted 50%. Plus I had build a bloom in the res 2 days before. I think that's how I was able to slow down the fade. I keep throwing N at her and she keeps eating it right up! Lol... thanks for the tip though. I might try that next feeding and see what happens!

Roots do get down there I can tell because the planter hooks up and the growth gets big fast. I wanted to try and minimize the amount of root growth down there a little just to keep most of the roots feeding from the soil. But in the end they get down there anyway.

sounds like a good idea.

They grow up so fast Two Goji's getting ready to go into the big tent to spread their wings.

My home made cloner seems to be doing the job. Fingers crossed this will be a healthy mother plant

Let's get this show on the road , first the soil mix , this will be a water only grow
FFOF with 3 cups worm castings, 3.5 tbs mycorrizrae, 1.5 cups bat guano, 1.5 cups kelp meal, 2 cups tomato tone , 1.5 cups azomite , 1/2 cup green sand , 1.5 cups lime,

Time to pack the SIP, going with my grow box sip, I darn near fit the whole 1.5 cubic foot Into the SIP, pile it up way past the top and put on the plastic cover I would be top watering , keeps put all the bugs too

The clones are triple chocolate chip, and mint sherbert, got both from the state dispensary, it was 20 percent off today, so both for 46 dollars

Damn I wish I could just go grab a few clones and go straight into flower! Looking like a great start man! I'm sure you'll kill it as always!

Day 48 flower.....






Buds are still getting a lil bigger. She's not a big or fast grower or a big yielder. What she's done in the earthbox though, has surprised me, but with as big as I like to grow them, I feel the earthbox just isn't big enough. I can't keep up with her. Lol

Thank you. It's been a lil difficult but I'm hoping to continue to do better.
No, I've got a few different strains growing as moms that I'll pick one and take a few cuts off of it. I'm not sure which one yet though. I guess I better start getting them ready. Lol

 

[meangreengrowinmachine]

So what you cats think... can I take my sip soil re amend (just organics) and throw in some 6 week old plants in there? Should be fine yeah?
