Im thinking about adding 2 small ones in this size bucket along with the 4 I have under the 600. I really dont have time to chop the 1gallon water bottles I have and tape them all up so im hoping these will work lol.

Also if anyone else wants these type of buckets/baskets, they have similar styles at dollar tree for 1.00

My dollar store had 1.5 gallon buckets. They crack easy when putting holes. I pqinted the ones with perlite only too as they are sort of thin. Didnt paint my soil hempys though. I dont like how i can only fit about 15 under a 600 though. They grow good sized plants though. securedownload-311.jpg

You can see in first pic here though that not much diff between one gallon amd 1.5 when given same veg. I do think that i will pull approx an ounce off each though.

First pic is my seed plant side. maui wowie x BD, maui wowi x elephant. Two tallest in back are gods gift. Second and third pic cuttings. Skunk 1 and Sand widow. Skunks look to be forming nice colas and sand widows seem to be putting out a profusion of nugs. Starting to smell sweet in there. I did over N a plant or two as shown hereView attachment 2551214

yea with dollar store buckets I usually grab a lighter and heat up a screw driver head and push it through and it makes a perfect hole every time. Your setup looks really nice btw. how many weeks are they?

Haven't posted in awhile, been havin' some problems. These photos are a couple of wks old. But 1st the happy side. Here's the runt Mist just before chop. She was grown with OC+ in a coco supchuka beta 1, is 13wks old & never dropped a leaf

After the smart pot dried out it was just crusted with mineral buildups, I'm going to be running more of these in the next run. Maybe the smart pot will help with reducing nute salt build-up.

Maui Thunder Mom just before I pulled 5 clones off her, (2 to be new mom & 3 for a fem seed project) and the kids.

Moe want to say I really like your clone buckets. What I've found in cloneing is that the most important thing is temp not the light size or type. These are under a halogen under cab light which is worse than incandescent but keeps the dome at a constant 78. Just got to get them under some floros as soon as roots set or they will stretch bad.

Make sure to post pics on the double bubbleberry. I am looking at that for the April promo at the tude.
will do. I tried to pick them up today but he didnt answer his phone. I tried growing the bubbleberry last summer and everytime it was time to flower they died out on me. I think they are sensitive to high temps but since its still winter I think they should be fine this time around. I gave him the clones I had left in veg and he turned around and got 4 oz off each plant..I was mad LOL but im glad he put them to good use because I could not do anything with them

Now the problem. My monster Mist in coco was the worse hit. The bud hairs started turning brown @ 4wks they aren't the normal red/brown hair of maturity. I thought it was light burn, which was correct but it was because the plant wasn't pulling up the necessary fluids. Notice the brown hair everywhere, and the purple streaks in the main stalk and leaf stems (shows reverse travel in the plants piping system).

I couldn't figure it out and the plant started to yellow hard, then I read Moe's post on CA def. I hadn't changed the rate of cal/mag add, but I did open a new bottle of cal/mag at wk 3.5, and I noticed that the new stuff is much lighter in color and thinner in consistency. I've since almost trippled the dose and it's helped the perlite buckets a bunch and even the monster has shown some new green growth on the buds, but I don't think she'll fully recover.

Updated my journal!! Not sure what happened with this yellowing, but after 2 days creamy yellow colored pistils popped out. Then after 1 more day all the pistils have turned green with new hairs sticking out. Sorry the one pic is kinda fuzzy. Peace!!

Been away for a while guys but good to be back.

Watt, that is crazy looking with all the brown hairs on such immature bud. I hope the Ca/Mg helps you out and they recover for the most part.

So many awesome posts that I missed I couldn't hope to comment on them all. So I'll just thank Moeb for starting this incredible thread, and all the posters that make this one of the best and troll-free threads on this site. Props to the hempy nation.
