Jax Rider...Great day to ya ...sir? I know a dog named Jax..are you affiliated..
Anyhow , great to have you along . Welcome to my journal and this neighborhood. You have found a very special forum ,..this is the best weed forum on the web, by far! The growers here are all passionate about what we do and are very real , caring people. i know , cuz i've met a bunch of them. Most of us are growing in some type of soil and among them , most are using Doc Bud's gear , or 'Kit' as we like to call it. A very reliable , low cost system that produces excellent High Brix cannabis every time, no problem. Don't hesitate to ask all the questions ya want , OK...one of us will help ...or all of us..
Take stroll around this neighborhood and do some reading in some of the other High Brix journals , like Doc's Q and A thread or especially his tutorial thread him and Scotia have on the go right now. A great thread to follow , to learn what we're all doing. Anyhow , have some pics and an update to get to so , a big warm welcome to ya Jax Rider....cool name .
Ok gang...here goes with all these pics. Just got done and all cleaned up. The girls don't look their best , obviously cuz i woke them up to get this transplanting done. Gonna have a hot bath with a glass of wine shortly. Enjoy gang!
Starting point. My rec room .Tarp spread out ready to go!
Showing how i store my soil filled totes...off the floor with 2inch SM, Insulation.
Both totes .
getting ready to empty and clean up all the old soil.
The homemade 'Rootbuilders and how they come together/apart. OK , these pots come as a sheet and are rolled into a pot , then a pre-made factory bottom is installed. What i did was use two sheets (each one is a 7 gal. pot) i just overlapped them to size which turned out to be 26 gals. A different bottom was created using 1/2 x 1/2 galvanized chicken wire and landscaping cloth.They are then placed on a homemade 'beer cap' style aluminum trays, then set upon a 5 caster HD plant trollie.
Each pot was washed in my laundry tub to remove salt build up in those little dibbits around the outsides.
Showing how they easily go back together , using a few tie wraps.
Ready to fill the first one.
Four bags of the old soil , double bagged (used 8 HD garbage bags).
This fresh, still damp new soil feels and smells wonderfull.
First plant to get into the fresh DBHBB soil is a BCP..not rootbound but healthy .Dusted the holes and rootball with Doc's 'roots' from the 'kit'.
Just adding more soil to completely fill these huge pots...i want them to hold 26 gals....NOT 23..or 24!!
All done, Star Pupils up front...Black Cherry Punches, at the back!
Rec. rm all cleaned up....it's all done for another 4months...Yeepa , yeepa !
OH ya forgot to mention . Each pot got 2 gal's. of 1/4 Transplant W/Tea. The Advanced XTE 400 is set to come on now as well, since my footprint just got a lot bigger.
Hope ya's all are having a great day Gang...
sent from my DeLorean...in the future!
We have a very big advantage to this , as Doc Bud is here among us ,..in our journals , always a presence. We are mostly all using his High Brix 'kit' to produce our produce. it's a mineral based amended , soil utilizing a large Micro herd to process it all below the soil. 
) and tweaking things a lil here and there.
