Now doggone it, lol. I had a joint of S&D pipe and four or five caps. Had them for
years. Gave them away a month ago after the 420,000th time I tripped over the pipe. I could have made several little hempy pots out of them. That'll teach me to (ever) get rid of something. Hoarders aren't mental after all - they're just stockpiling against future need
.
WITH caps... and you gave them away.... a shame no doubt. I suspect there are many other possible hempy pots floating around your world.
I did some (very light) skimming and got the impression that Osmocote Plus wasn't the most highly recommended nutrient for auto-flowering strains. I'd
really like to use it for a few (
autos). This is a little embarrassing to admit, but it's the only nutrient I have that isn't 4+ years old (some are even older
). I bought a bottle of it on a whim last Autumn for something like $1.99 (clearance-priced) before I realized that Osmocote is a Scotts Miracle-Gro Monster product. AND... I also bought a sack (pouch?) of the stuff at about the same time to use on Mom's "bucket" tomato plants. BtW, her two five-gallon bucket tomato plants seem to like it, although I might look in the shed to see if I have any triple super phosphate left and, if so, spike them a little.
Ya know... I'm not sure Os+ is the best nutrient for any grow... but it sure is the easiest.
I've noticed this forum is a LOT busier than it was eight years ago - and SweetSue's threads always seem to have high levels of participation. I almost think she could create a thread solely to complain about a bunion or something, and end up getting 30 or 40 replies in a week.
hmmmmm.... makes me wonder about 420mag's traffic numbers over the years. I'm sure they know their numbers. I wonder if we can pry the numbers from the staff.... they might be happy to flaunt them. I'd sure love to know.
Lol. I like to post that once a year or so. There's just something very appealing about alligator gar - the fish that you are advised to use a shotgun on as soon as you get it into your boat so it doesn't have a chance to thrash around and break several of your bones (apparently, merely unloading your pistol into one doesn't kill the primitive beasts quickly enough, LMAO).
As you can imagine, Tead sees lot of various gator bits all over his world. It might be a logo for an auto repair place, a sign for a restaurant, or a real gator in the zoo or a bayou.
When you combine that with some grade school reports about a young Tead having reading comprehension issues, you might understand how Tead glanced at the photo, went to 'gator' in his brain and stayed there.
I totally was thinking 'gator' until you tossed 'gar' out there... Tead had to go back an look a bit closer.
I dunno... that's a mighty ugly fish. Tead likes him some real gator tail.... I suspect his diet will not change.
Looks like, if you want to run their line in a hydroponic setup, they WANT you to do the hand-watered thing. So... hempy food, lol?

Perhaps. I guess I'll have to try some organic nutes some time. Damn it... something else on the list of things to try!
Are you referring to its tendency to hold onto calcium/magnesium and to dump phosphate if it is not properly pre-treated? Or some sort of actual microbial life in it? If the latter, I did not know this.
To be fair, I know very little about coco. I see it in play in other folk's gardens and I see some fluctuations in their worlds.... so that's really the basis for my words. Some day I'll get around to trying coco.
Can you get
green buckets? I did some growing in (unpainted) Mountain Dew bottles a while back and never saw any algal growth. Maybe I just got lucky, but... I'm not especially known for good luck in the grow room
.
Well... I might suggest science rather than luck. Green is the color we use to NOT activate photosynthesis in our pants when we peek at them during lights out... so.... yea.... perhaps you were saved by the green wavelength of the light.
IDK if that really follows the spirit of "hempy." And I wouldn't think it would really be necessary unless someone is doing it in (for example) Texas.
Weas uses the setup when he's away from the garden for long lengths of days. True.... it does violate the basic idea, but it's sure a nice little hybrid setup for when he's roaming. I've been jealous for years now.
which can be patched with spackling or even toothpaste (or wet toilet paper, lol) and painted afterwards
Don't you dare fill my walls with toothpaste or T.P.!
Makin the landlord in me shudder. For the record, I'm sure yours would prefer you left any drywall repair to them rather than be 'creative' with your patching techniques.
