I'm good thanks my friend, hope your well.
Hey @BubbaKush909 - I would never ignore you brother! Probably just missed them. Yeah, the 'Cats lost that game in the first six minutes. You can't score 5 points in 6 minutes against Kansas and expect to come back from an almost 20 point deficit. Not often in college ball anyway. They gave it a decent shot in the second half when they cut it to 5, but that was it. Oh well.
Thanks Azi. Yeah it's sort of like raised beds, and yes, it would eliminate the "move the plant around" thing. I was thinking about those 4x4 trays you can get on the Zon that cover your whole tent floor and act as the drain pad for whatever plants you put in it. Those are only about 4" tall. I wonder if you could simply fill that with soil and grow like three or four plants in it and just place the seeds as equidistant from one another as possible?
Morning Jon , I’ve seen the 4’x4’x4” trays used for hydro. He just laid 6”x6” rockwool blocks in it and just fed once a day (flood and drain) . Hadn’t seen anyone try soil in it , but I bet if you had the rockwool off in the soil it would work ? I know he’s not here no more but I’ll see if I can find his thread , this is one I didn’t bookmark.
Thanks West. Yeah I don't see why it wouldn't, unless pot plants aren't really "built" for the root system to work that way. Maybe it would compromise growth. But who knows? Maybe it would accelerate it. I haven't seen anyone do it yet so I don't know.
Funny, after thinking about it more I came to a similar set of conclusions, and what you report here about light/stretch is exactly what my experience says too. Thanks. Really just thinking out loud. Hadn't at the time considered the support structure the roots provide, I was only thinking about feeding. Sort of like, sure, they'll grow that way, but you'll never get an appreciable taproot/support roots. Only feeders all around. Which would almost inevitably lead to plant laying on the floor. Lol.
Also relevant, the Fruity Pebble Cookies plant Fulvia, the big one - She's pretty damn big right now. If she doubles in size were I to flip her today, she'd be majestic at around 5 feet tall. I want to go seven, so I was thinking to flip her at 3.5 feet tall, or create the canopy at that point or whatever. But if I leave her go au natural and don't create the usual canopy thing, which I think is what I want to do, I'm a bit concerned that what if she triples in size? I know how to handle it, but it seemed relevant to the discussion. A relatively non trained plant is going to stretch more than a plant divided into 50 tops every time I would say. I have yet to have a really trained out and large number of tops plant even double in size.
I hear you. This is my whole thing with the light - to ride on the edge of disaster at all times. Lmao. Push push push. The next logical stop being CO2 and the Fohse Aries.
Looks good.Hi @Bill284, happy Monday. I ran out of the Boogie Black frass with the up potting of Fulvia, so I got some more. Stuff already got here! Only I switched it up to what you see in the picture. The Boogie Black was fine but came very crappily packaged with the stuff loose in the bottom of the wrap bag all over the place. I wasn't impressed. Figured the box would be more fool proof. I guess this stuff will be the same thing, yes?
Nope. All is says is 100% derived from the casings of the black whatever fly. The Boogie Black also did not have the NPK numbers, I figured it didn't have them or something. 3-1-1. Wonder if they're all in that range? I like the N amount though, and the relative neutrality of it in general. Should be great. Now I want to know what the numbers on bokashi are. Lol.
Yeah well so I guess the 3-1-1 is what the nutes are that these particular microbes will produce? Is that what this means?Microbes and fungi nothing beats them.
Stay safe
Bill
