BAR Growlow

Congratulations on your harvest!

Thanxx Judge John. Now that our Partner's back are we going to put the band back together? LOL

The sip looks intresting to try out id just be afraid of the roots going into the water and the water going stale.
Do u just top it up with a nute mix and then water the plant with plane or ?

With the sealed SIPs we top feed but now we use mostly unsealed & just fill the reservoir when it's empty. It's not a problem with the roots touching the water because the reservoirs empty in about 2 days which isn't long enough to go stale. What you feed (fill the reservoir with) depends on what medium you're using; Since most of our plants are in PJ's Organic Soil Mix and don't need nutes we just use 6.5 PH adjusted tap.

She doesn't dig Sprite & needs caffeine?
Joking...
What does the roots look like?

Those were the roots Cajun but that's old news. SHE DIDN'T MAKE IT. Anyways they don't start coming through the container's bottom until the pot is full of them. I think the best way to describe it is instead of becoming rootbound the roots just start coming through the cap.

We're still here Jaga.



After re-moistening the first Bag Seed buds the dry weight went from 12.9 to 13.3 grams. The second Bag Seed had a dry weight of 15.6 which brings a total of 28.9 grams. Since they were from the same batch of Bag Seeds we're curing them together.

Sounds like sometjhing good to test out and the results arnt bad by the looks and sounds of things i was thinking about an upgrade version in a 2L milk carton becuse of there wider tops. like so ifd the imiage didnt come out to small.

the pic is the top of the milk carton lookikng into it, i might have to give it ago this way and see

 

[B A R]

Great idea to upgrade a SIP Indo. You could even try it with a 1gal milk container for a bigger pot size. I don't think you would really need the gauze; just put a small hole in the cap for the wick to go through.

 

[indochronic]

Good thinking, not gauze and just a bigger carton with possibley a bigger wick too The SIP is kinda like a diy version of a single dwc with out the air pump, but as u said water get changed regulary so that no prob really. Id llike to have a go at one of these for veg plants to even

 

[B A R]

The wick only has to be long enough to reach the bottom of the reservoir. The size shouldn't have to change much because you'd only have a larger reservoir by mass but the distance from the cap to the bottom would be about the same.

I have a pretty good idea of how a DIY works but could you explain it in detail.

 

[indochronic]

Do u mean DWC ?

 

[B A R]

Yeah, that's what I meant. I'm not even going to edit it but leave it as a reminder of what happens when we wait until after 7pm to have our first smoke of the day.

 

[indochronic]

Well the ''DWC'' lol. its just what u see there, but its more roots in water growing. and the water is of coursed aired and thats basically it They say its a space saver and the tastie and growing is more organic
And what a great one is too

 

[indochronic]

Its a straght foward as u thought, thats another plus to
Good day to u Sir & Madam

QUICK UPDATE​

April 29, 2015​

As of late there's been a lot of discussion about healthy soil. One of my favorite one's going on right now is SweetSue's journal & since soil is a hot topic these days I figured I'd give everyone a peep at how PJ's Organic Soil Mix performs. All three plants featured in this post are in PJ's OSM & have been feed only 6.5 adjusted tap water since sprouting. They also receive 1 teaspoon of Cal/Mag per gallon only because plants under LEDs call for extra amounts of calcium & magnesium and that's all they've received as far as nutes go.


NORTHERN LIGHTS X BIG BUD (Auto) Day 53 under 18/6

LEMON KUSH (In unsealed SIP with a Micro-scrog) Day 91 / Day 20 under 12/12

BAG SEED (Formally Triple Bag Seed) Day 71 / Day 47 under 12/12


This is the pot we had 3 bagseeds growing in. Unfortunately 2 were male.

 

[indochronic]

Theres something about ur 2L gorws that make me wanna pot up afew in bottles And i think i may tomorrow with the bag seeds iv left. ( dont get many bagseeds as i use to a few years ago, before growing) I use to eat them i had that much lol should of feed them to the birds and put them to use ;D All plants are looking good, hope the mini Scrog lemon kush turns out to be something reall nice

 

[B A R]

The 2lts are great for working with limited real estate & with a gallon of feed you can water 4 or 5 pots. What I like the most about using them perpetually is always having so many different strains on hand to smoke at your convenience.

Our bagseeds were donated to me by a friend; a whole aspirin bottle full but even before I started growing the guy I use to give away all my extra cash to didn't have seeds in his buds so we wouldn't have had bagseeds either.
