trying bottom feeding and aerating in the veg box. i can only do six at a time and im still goofing with the number of holes i poke in the hose loop, seems like the more holes, the more bubbles. easy enough. The jyst of this is to only have the pump on while the plant is soaking up water. So i also have to keep an eye on the water level cuz its been on for a few hours and hasnt soaked up all that much water. There's some yellowing from what looks like N def in some and P def in others. I knocked over my stir plate tea last night so they're out of tea for a few days. no worries, cept that was my phosphorus supplement in there ughh,, wooooopsy,
what day am i on? hmm week 7 or 8 i guess

nope, i just have a T hose splitter with a loop of hosing that i poked a bunch of needle holes into. it fits into the spill trays center most ring so the pots will lay flat on top. im planning on moving the hoses to the other plants when they need a watering. I've been making stir plate tea with activated EM1 and fermented extracts, looks like a yeast starter in beer brewing. I only make a gallon or two at a time so ill measure how many turkey basters of tea a thirsty plant will drink and repeat with other plants. I'm well aware of what over watering looks like so ill keep a close eye on the leaves and the weight of the containers upon saturation.

sorry i keep posting!!!
cant hide money right? so i purchased two sacs of black hen (organic oOoOoo) chicken manure compost 2-3-2, and two sacs of mushroom compost. I then added them to my fermented kitched garbage and bokashi soil mix with a shitfuck of azomite and bone meal. smells like chicken shit lol. its going to sit in a dumpster for a few weeks until i clear out the flower tent and get some new clu058-1818's to spew light in my 4x8x8 tent with like 15 plants. if the wick tek works in veg ill continue to use it in flower with 3 gallon containers and 12" spill trays. fabric pots would be dope around now but i done spent too much on all those toys for me to justify fabric pots. maybe if i sell some paintings i'll get them.

so, i fabricated a new magnet strip for the stir bar that is made of acrylic and epoxied magnets. this way i can use the big stir bar and have more aeration /less sediment in the tea. i tried this a few months ago but broke the stir plate in the process. so, this is take two. looks like itll work well this time 
the whirl diameter is roughly six inches wow! @ 4.2volt .2amps (only .84 watts) being the fastest it will spin before loosing grip of the magnet.

funny how true. Communication, fortunately, is the key to global cannabis legalization.
