Had to go pick up groceries and missed all the action. :laugh:
Shed is right ,you don't want crap building up in the pots water to run off.
Do you read the stuff I tell you? :laugh: :rofl: :laugh: :rofl: hehe
Run the last week of veg on you chart until you see pistols ,then start week 1 of flower on your chart. :thumb:
Lots of fun aren't they.
Grow like Champs if you pound it to them.
Can't tell you how many runs hit the lights before I got it perfect.
Just top dress them before you feed if you don't have time for the tea.
It's important. ;)
Your ladies are just beautiful mucker.

Stay safe
Bill

So it sounds as if I should go back to week 4 until I see pistils. Ok. That's only a week. No problem.

As always.....:adore:

I just want to make a side point while we wait for Jon's answer. I am not sure there is an automatic increase in yield just because of using coco. I would submit that there might be a slight increase in yield simply because like a hydroponic setup, they are getting fed two or three times a day, and this is a decided advantage over a plant being grown organically, letting the plant decide how much to eat and not being fed aggressively. If one was to aggressively feed in a coco grow, I can see the plants getting bigger, because the grower is gardening like a boss and fertilizing like they mean it. To the contrary, if someone is following the advice out there warning to feed very lightly, giving only a bare subsistence diet while in the coco, I would expect a lighter yield than compared to an organic soil grow. Comparing someone aggressively feeding a regular soil grow using synthetic nutes with a coco grow, I think then the comparison has to be in each of the gardeners resolves to feed like they mean it, or not. The sizes of each comparison plant would then be exactly in proportion to the amount of feed they got, not a difference between coco and soil.

Good point Emilya. Agressive vs. passive feeding. Personally, I would not be able to make the time commitment to that rigorous of a feeding schedule that coco seems to require plus my needs are not high enough to warrant the effort. Even though I would like to maximize my harvest yields (Who doesn't, right?), I really am looking for a way to get a desired amount using the lowest number and smallest sized pots to accomplish that goal. I have an organic substrate mix that I make that I'm happy with and Ideally I'd like to use that substrate in 3 gallon smart pots as the final pot size which is the ideal size for my environment. I'd be curious what size dry yields that you, Emilya, or anyone else reading this post, has been able to generate from 3 gallon smart pots using organic soil?

Such pretty ladies - maybe one day I’ll get there!
 
Well, I guess it's on then.....

These came today. The Black Diesel are freebies. They gave me 5 freebies, which was nice even though I'll likely never grow this strain.

I'm soaking a Watermelon Weddingcake Double XL autoflower seed from Grower's Choice as we speak.

Watermelon Weddingcake? Double XL auto?

Sex: Feminized
Type: Sativa dominant (70%)
Grow: Indoor/Outdoor
Flowering Type: Autoflower
Flowering Time: 10-12 weeks
Outdoor Harvest: 10-12 weeks
Yield: 100-150g/plant
Height: 110-160cm
THC: 28%
Genetics: Weddingcake x Watermelon Zkittlez
Aroma/Flavour: Delicious Fruity!

So I'm going to grow this in a 7 gallon pot in coco using @Bill284's method and the 10 sun/10 LED method with significant training and see just what we can do with a Double XL auto. Lol. Double XL. If that turns out to be anything but marketing I'll be pleasantly surprised. Let's see how big an auto can get in coco. Haven't decided on what nutes I'll use yet.

The Mimosa will be our last photo of the grow. Haven't decided yet what I'm going to do with her, and many here have grown it so I won't bore you with Mimosa details.

Last two plants in this state. For real. Outdoors at least. Lol. There is soon going to be an empty tent....

It's auto, I corrected on edit. Sorry, my bad. I suspect the Double XL is something I fell for, but we'll see. Lol. I know it'll get reasonably large in coco though.

Thanks!

I don't think you should post a pic of that envelope with the sender's address on it and their stealth method either. It's dangerous for future buyers and it's frowned upon here.

Hmm... hadn't considered that. I was showing what I thought was funny with the model car parts, hadn't even really noticed that address I was so focused on the other part. Thanks. Edited.
 
And now you have to edit the __________ out of your post above! The less customs knows the better.
 
...
 
LOL! The words in your post. We're not supposed to discuss anything about the stealth used.

Got it. Duh. First day with the new brain. Nobody ever told me it was frowned on here. You know me. I ain't going to rock the boat on purpose.
